Mollie is testing out some new skills, like attempting to crawl and sitting
And the grandmas
Doesn't she look happy? (and slobbery).
We went to the Portrait Gallery and to Dairy Godmother. The museum was great, but Mollie was much more in to the frozen custard. Who could blame her?

We let Liz have the honor of feeding Mollie some peas. Mollie apparently hates peas. This look pretty much says it all.
A little success...
Grandma Liz is also giving Mollie some very important art lessons. I'm hoping Mollie is significantly more gifted as an artist than I am.
Mollie's also been getting some good snuggles from Grandpa David.
We spent Monday in Baltimore. We went to Vaccarro's for cannoli and coffee.
And stopped by Nancy Pelosi's street
And of course the Baltimore Aquarium. 
Mollie loved the fish - especially the bright colored ones.
We also ate at Lexington Market. Apparently the crab cakes are really good - I have no idea. But Mollie had a wonderful time and...
...so did her daddy!
Mollie has been showing her grandparents all of her new tricks that she's learned since she saw them last in California, such as jumping. Grandpa David sings to her while she jumps and she loooves it!
When we got back to our house, Mollie and Silas played footsie, which made Mollie laugh hysterically. In fact, it was so cute that even Louie couldn't be upset that his little girl has a new boyfriend.
On Sunday morning we went to the Turtle Park sprayground with Rina, Liam, Deb and Ethan. The sprayground is a really cool park with a regular playground and a water feature sort of like a garden hose on steroids.
Mollie was more interested in watching Rina swing than swinging herself.
The goat version of Liam showed me how to feed him/goats raisins with a flat hand.
And Mollie and Deb cooled off in the water.
Mollie also had her 5 month doctor's appointment this month. She weighs 17 lbs 2 oz and is 26.5 inches long. This month she learned to roll onto her belly (see sleeping picture below) and she has started pushing herself up on all fours and rocking back and forth. 
Here's a sneaky photo I took of Mollie and Louie having some pre-bed story time.
At her check up we got the go ahead to start feeding her some food. This week, rice cereal. Very exciting stuff. She seemed a little unsure of it and mostly enjoys blowing bubbles on the spoon, rubbing the spit out rice cereal on her legs, and generally making a big mess. We think she will like the fruits and veggies more.
We also visited the Liberty Bell because getting her picture in front of it seemed like the right thing to do.
Then we attended Brian and Carrie's rehearsal dinner, which was really fun. Mollie liked all the people singing to her.
While we were nearby, we visited Great Grand Poppy, Great Uncle Jim, and Mollie got to meet cousin Anya. It was a really nice visit - we don't see them nearly enough!
Finally, a holdover picture from last week. My sister was nice enough to watch Mollie while Louie and I went on a booze cruise with his work. The cruise was really nice - great food, plenty to drink, and good company. We had a really nice time.
...and Brian's dad. She was a big hit a the wedding.
Louie was a chuppah holder, doesn't he look official?
Mollie got to meet a lot of Louie's college friends, including Bob.
Here are the lovely bride and groom dancing
And Mollie joined in for the first dance too.
The wedding had the most amazing thing I've ever seen - a cookie table. Basically, guests contributed cookies and they were pretty delicious. There is apparently a southern treat called a buckeye. I have never experienced such joy in a sweet item before. I don't even bake but I'm inspired to learn to make these because they are really that good.
