Some pictures from today, taken by Papa, at a park just down the street.

Joy loves doing this. There is a foot or so break in the end of Papa’s chair where there is no fabric covering the chair. Joy likes putting a blanket here, and letting herself fall through, effectively making the nest a kind of bag or nest to enclose herself in.

Visited the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History today, with Papa and Joy. Joy LOVED it! (photos by Papa)

Here, you can see Joy interacting with a live exhibit. As you can see, this is a bug. A giant hissing cockroach to be exact. I was a little grossed out, but Joy loved it. Just look at her expression of open curiosity!

We also walked around outside, including on the National Mall where there is a Merry-Go-Round. It was an all-around fun day!

is complete. Won’t go into any further details, but will share this cute picture.
