Happy Father's Day!

Amelia would like to wish her daddy a happy first father's day!
He's been very helpful as she does her flamingo impersonation.
And in teaching her to fly.
And in letting her win staring contests. Happy Father's Day Matt!! We love you very much.

Amelia had her first visit to Rhode Island last weekend (including her first plan rides.) We went up to celebrate her Uncle Steve's graduation from high school.
Congratulations Uncle Steve! We're very proud of you.
Four generations of Bennetts. Matt's father, grandmother, Amelia, and Matt.
Amelia and her Uncle John.
Checking out her Grandpa.

Amelia did wonderful on the trip. On the plane ride up the biggest problem was her deciding to kick my drink into Matt's lap and on the way home it was my turn for her to make a mess in my lap. It's the circle of life. My brother and I used to do the same thing to our mom every time we flew.

Amelia got to meet almost all her family on Matt's side. There was a graduation party for Steve (that I think was really a get to meet Amelia party) and a party that was in her honor. She had smiles for everyone, managed to sleep during each party and kept up her sleeping through the night. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

When we got home we had a visit from my sister Amanda. Amelia greeted her with a smile, but then started crying every time Amanda held her. Thankfully after a good night's sleep Amelia decided that she liked her Aunt Amanda. Especially when she feeds her.
