The Oona Blog

This weekend we drove down to PA for Jeff + Angela’s wedding. Oona was great, very well behaved, interested, and extremely alert. It was the first time she took a long car ride, was all dressed up, saw a church, went to a wedding, and heard organ music. She managed the crowd well, and didn’t get upset, though she did have a little trouble falling asleep there… But she slept well once we got to her Grandpax and Grammy’s house.

Saturday we drove to Philly and she stayed in her first hotel room, which she seemed to like because *drumroll please* she rolled over for the first time! She was on her belly on the bed and worked sooo hard to just FLIP herself like a pancake. It was so cute, so we did it again. FLIP! Then she slept in the middle of the king sized bed, and was very happy having some quiet time between us. In the morning we drove to Pottstown where she met her Great Grand Pop and Great Aunt Pat. Photo to be posted later.

In the mean time, here are some cute photos from the hotel. SO alert!! She’s looking more grown up every day.

This afternoon, at the Smoochdome meeting, Oona joined all the geeks in engaging in telepresence by communicating with fellow campmember Bronwyn Patience Biernat Goldberg through Josh Goldberg’s Skype. It was a landmark moment in her young life, as she begins to grasp the fundamental difference between bits and atoms, and learns to use the mouse with her foot. Thanks to Moish for capturing the moment!
