and what a month it was!

with visits from grandma J, uncle mikey, the seattle aldredges, and maybe a new girlfriend from bainbridge island! whoo-hoo! who knew a boy could be so popular.

then there were barbeques on the back deck, lazy summer weekends with mama, papa and ella, numerous visits with my cousins at the condo, and many, many walks in our beautiful seattle summer.

milestones met & passed: sleeping the night, tummy time with extended head lifting, a couple of roll-overs from front to back, (just to tease the parents) a few scattered laughs, lots of babbling, (in italian, of course) and who could forget getting mama and papa kicked out of a restaurant for the very first time. nonna would be so proud!
