Poser

Andrew's personality continues to develop and flourish. He is so eager to be a big boy, to help, to be a part of things. Like Elizabeth, he's a bit of a mimic. After all, if she does something and we laugh and hug her, won't we laugh and hug him when he does it too?

Harkening back to the nice weather that began July (oh how I miss you!), the day after Teddy Roosevelt Island, we headed down to the Mall to check out the Tidal Basin, the Jefferson Memorial, and grab lunch at the golf course. I'll have to post pics from the whole day (in retrospect, perhaps the paddle boats were not the best idea), but for now a little story of my two posers.

A while ago, Elizabeth started posing when we pulled out the camera. No idea where it came from, but she juts out her hip and blinks her eyes and, well, poses. Like this:

And then, well, then, Little Mr. Me Too wiggled out of Rich's grasp, ran up to the steps, and struck a pose. Joined by big sister before we snapped just him, but you can still see the hip jut:
More on this development to come!
