Little Georgia Peach

Bella and I have been busy. We went to see Grandpa and Grandma Hardy down in Atlanta. Bella got to play with Toby the dog, sit like a big girl in Auntie Nora's chair from when she was little, and go shopping. All kinds of people came to see Bella and she was in rare form. She smiled and giggled at all the right times while displaying her talent for rolling and playing with toys. While in Atlanta, Bella almost mastered a few new tricks. She's started clapping her hands with her fists when asked to clap her hands. I worked with her to open her hands when clapping which she did once. So there's a little more work to do with that trick. In addition, she is on the verge of becoming a world famous harmonica player. Grandma Hardy gave her one while we were in Georgia and she showed some great promise. At the end of our stay we visited with Grandmother and Grandfather Johnson and most of the Johnson clan. To top everything off, Bella and I ventured up to Rock City. After an arduous climb by car (what you think we'd walk?) we reached the top to find.......Starbucks! Well, Rock City was there too, but it had been invaded by the creamy, frothy blend of coffee and cream. What is this world coming to? Anyways, that was our journey down south. Next stop: Gulf Shores.

C ya,

Jen and Bella
