Summertime Fun in Cincinnati






We are having a wonderful time with family friends this summer in Cincinnati. It's hard to believe we only have one week left! It has been a whirlwind of fun! Snapdragon has been warmly welcomed by her new extended family and Buttercup always just seems to pick up where she left off with family and friends. Buttercup completed a week long basketball camp at Mount Saint Joseph College and a craft class at a local park. We have made several visits to the Cincinnati Zoo and the The Cincinnati Museum Center. Buttercup even won two tickets to see the new American Girl movie, Kit Kitteridge, at a preview screening in the museum. She took Grandma Inskeep as her special guest. The story of the movie is set in Cincinnati during the depression. We made a trip to Coney Island and Sunlite Pool. Of course, no trip would be complete without going to a Reds game (even if they aren't doing very well this year). Snapdragon has adjusted very well. She is warming up to everyone, but won't let anyone but Buttercup or I hold her. She adjusted to the three hour time change, but sleeping has had its ups and downs.
