Splish, splash ... spray!

Murray has a new "sprayground" at Central Park. And we recommend it. It's free for now and it's open from 12 to 7 p.m. until Oct. 3 unless it really cools off before then.

Ben likes getting his hair wet.

I don't think I've mentioned my new camera. For our anniversary, Greg bought me a waterproof digital camera. I've gotten to use it a few times now, and it's so handy to have. I experimented a little at the spray park, trying to take the photo above through the water.

Around here ...

... Ben is making friends with a stuffed lady bug. [And this is one of my favorite pictures of him in his seven weeks of life. I've been trying to learn about some of the manual settings on my camera. Hopefully I can learn more soon.]
_____
... the snow from last week is long gone. Yes, this is as close as I got to it and, yes, this is as much as we had.
_____
... we've learned sometimes Ben needs a little prompting to wake up and finish his bottle. Nakedness seems to work.
_____
... we might have a second thumb-sucker on our hands. [No pun intended.]
