Taste of Cincinnati

In which Cora enjoys a soft pretzel and her first two carnival rides.

Here is a video of Cora's ride :)

Nonno Mark visits!

We love you, Nonno Mark!  Thanks for visiting us in Ohio.

Uptown Water Fountain

Today we enjoyed Oxford's very own water park.  

Macomb!

While daddy was at a conference in Chicago, momma and Cora enjoyed a great visit to Macomb.  We were so lucky that everyone came home.

 

Mother's Day 2013

Happy Mother's Day, to everyone who is a mom or has a mom!

I enjoyed year two of our annual "Mother's Day = Good sleep at a hotel" tradition.  :)  After a relaxing night, I met up with Josh and Cora at Sharon Woods Park for a brunch and some fun on the playground.  It is incredible how much Cora has grown since my last Mom's Day.  Here is a video of Cora swinging at the park.

After we left Sharon Woods, I got to Skype with my mom, dad, and sister.  Life is good.  

my pretty mom and I, in St. Louis.

happy hour :)

The psychology department at Miami holds near-weekly happy hours.  We've attended some, but even though people often bring their kids, it can be difficult with Cora.

SO: we were very excited for the first outdoor happy hour of this year!  Talk about kid-friendly.

Cora and Emily were excited, too.
