Bath time

Bath time for Evie is a really great experience now that she can sit up!

And yes, she did kind of fall over at the end of that video, but she got right back up and did some more splashing!

Wimbledon

Last year we actually saw Roddick playing at Wimbledon on Court 2 (he lost), but this year, as 'babes in arms' are specifically not invited to Wimbledon, we watched from our living room. Again, he lost. Evie seemed to enjoy it, although she was a little alarmed when we yelled:



More interesting, though, was her pacifier.

Fourth of July

Well, we're not patriotic and we live in England, but we are American and this year Fourth of July fell on a Saturday, so we decided to DO SOMETHING (in the form of a BBQ).

Julie helped Evie enjoy her first piece of watermelon:


And Phil was our first guest to arrive! Joe came, too, but I had forgotten to take
pictures by then.

There was much frantic rolling:


And couple of other lapsed/partial Americans (Julie 2, in the red dress and Jackie, who isn't actually American, but pretty much has been in Houston her whole life...plus their boyfriends Simon and Piotrek):


Jackie and Evie tried again. This is what they looked like the first time they met:

And this is what they looked like on Saturday. Jackie still isn't quite sure....


But Piotrek was totally at ease:


And Finchley...well, he just got drunk.

Happy Fourth of July from London!
