The weekend in review

After starting the weekend with a bang (eating from a spoon), Alena had a lot more fun things to do. Her friend Maren came over Saturday night to play. Alena learned a lot from her as she is 11 months old. Then, cousin Tillie was baptised on Sunday. There were many people to meet! Alena got so tired that she had to sleep through the brunch following the baptism. Fortunately, she was awake and ready to play when Grandpa Ed and Aunt Kristina came over for a visit. The weather was nice so it was the perfect day for a walk. Aunt Kristina even pushed the stroller.

Alena tried on her new dress to wear to church. Good thing she tried it on early so we could work out the kinks of dressing her--Dad put her bloomers on her head as a hat!

Maren was very good at sharing toys.

Alena remembered her cousin Emily. Here they are picking out a ribbon to weave for a display at church.

Grandpa and Alena had a good time playing.

Alena looks cute even with bloomers as a hat. I think she should start a new trend!
