Tio Christopher

This weekend Penelope got to meet the famous Uncle Mister Christopher. He had a conference for work here in Minneapolis so we got a long visit with him. It was wonderful! Penelope loves her Uncle Christopher. He talked to her in Spanish most of the time. I'm sure they were sharing secrets about Mommy and Daddy.

Here is Christopher and Penelope on a beautiful day in St. Anthony Main (neighborhood in Minneapolis)


Penelope was all tired out after our walk across the Stone Arch Bridge and eating lunch.
Just in case you've noticed a theme...we put our visitors to work. If I have a landscape architect visiting from the east coast, doesn't it seem like the right time to start my veggie garden? I did help quite a bit...I'm very excited for all my plants. I have a variety started in the house.
Penelope said babies are not expected to garden...
So we went to the park for a little bit.Here she is telling Uncle Christopher how he should plant those veggies. She's becoming a cuddle bug...awwww
"Mommy, this guy is really funny!"
"Look, I'm wearing Uncle Christopher's hat!Flying babyThis is my favorite picture.No, penelope, you'll never be THAT tallBut look at that form...gymnast, ballerina maybe?
Mommy, Daddy and Penny

Thank you so much for the post....I have been anxiously waiting to see the Miss Penelope with her Uncle Mister Christopher......I saw a lot of him in her newborn pictures and now it is confirmed......I also have a feeling it didn't take too long for her to have him wrapped right around her little finger. I am so glad you all had a great visit! Love to all!!!
