Closed

I just got terrible news from Doha. QMart, my favorite grocery store, the one closest to our compound, has closed. I am in shock and can hardly believe it. In my opinion, this was the only place to get meat. The cashiers and baggers were so wonderful! I hope that they were able to find work some place else. Sounds like my juice stall will be next!

Food!!!

Kelsey is enjoying trying lots of new tastes! She was so excited to be offered the heal of the bread at one of our favorite Italian restaurants, Rocco's Little Italy. Don't dare take it from her!













And yes, that is a green pepper she is gumming!

Happy 1st Father's Day!
















Michael arrived back in Doha on Friday. Kelsey and I have about 2 more weeks in Chicago and about 2 in Houston.

Driving Miss Kelsey

We have driven from Houston-Little Rock-Chicago-Florida-Houston-Little Rock-Chicago and there will be one final drive to Houston in 2 weeks. Kelsey has been beyond amazing for all the traveling we have done and new places we have visited. She was getting a bit restless on our drive from Florida to Houston, but changes her tone quickly when the camera starts rolling! It always amazes me how aware she is of the camera. It probably shouldn't because I have a daily photo journal of her first 6 months!

Pappasito's AGAIN!!!

No mas tequila! (this one's for you Lucy!)

Let's Get Serious

Kelsey is well on her way to discovering lots of different flavors of foods. She started with peas, then squash, green beans, carrots, bananas and apples. It is so funny to watch her explore each taste.

I Can Do It, Can You?


Look! No Hands!


The First Supper

Kelsey enjoyed her first meal of rice cereal. She thinks it is yummy!

Baby Ready for Bed...

...or is she??? At Mamas and Papas in Doha, I purchased this adorable sleeping sack. Each night I just zip and snap her in and she is off to bed! Isn't she adorable?
