Before we left for Baltimore, I had to meet with Sandra Troian (Chemical Engineering) IMG_0613 Warren Powell (Operations Research and Financial Engineering) IMG_0614 Bruce Cavalier, Joe Bielamowicz, and Maureen McWhirter (the university auditors) IMG_0615 Francois Morel (Geosciences and Princeton Environmental Institute) IMG_0616 Miguel Centano (PIIRS and Sociology) IMG_0617 and David Botstein (LSIIG and Molecular Biology) IMG_0618

But then on Saturday morning, This breakfast IMG_0619 got Ben IMG_0620 going and the milk IMG_0621 fortified him so that could select the best colors IMG_0622 and make a birthday card for Joel IMG_0623 with this inside IMG_0624

Next, this sandwich IMG_0625 got Jane IMG_0626 into the car and we drove on until we saw this Baltimore scene IMG_0627 and this person from Baltimore IMG_0628 this ROWIE car (think boaters and floaters) IMG_0629 and this woman IMG_0630 who was smoking in her car. We soon got to their house IMG_0631 where Betsy was feeding Emma IMG_0632 while Jack IMG_0633 rolled on the floor. I did the Jack pictures IMG_0634 IMG_0635 IMG_0636 and then got the girls to help IMG_0637 IMG_0638 IMG_0639 IMG_0640 IMG_0641 as Emma IMG_0642 had her post-feeding timeout. Matt unwrapped IMG_0643 and was pleased with his stacking toy IMG_0644 and so went for the second present IMG_0645 while Betsy started with Jack IMG_0646 and his feeding. The second gift excited Matt IMG_0647 as Emma IMG_0648 earned the right to come to the photo gallery IMG_0649 IMG_0650 and show her face IMG_0651 before going thoughtful IMG_0652 IMG_0653 IMG_0654 and in need of a tickle IMG_0655 from Sarah. She liked Jane's hair IMG_0656 which went off limits IMG_0657 IMG_0658 IMG_0659 so she did her exploring IMG_0660 IMG_0661 IMG_0662 IMG_0663 put some fingers int he mouth IMG_0664 IMG_0665 IMG_0666 IMG_0667 IMG_0668 IMG_0669 IMG_0670 IMG_0671 tried to sneak out of camera range IMG_0672 and then went back to photo mode IMG_0673 IMG_0674 IMG_0675 IMG_0676 IMG_0677 IMG_0678 IMG_0679 IMG_0680 IMG_0681 until I checked out their room IMG_0682 and Larry IMG_0683 and Sylvia IMG_0684 arrived. Finally Emma IMG_0685 lost her cap IMG_0686 as Jack IMG_0687 looked at Grandma IMG_0688 and Emma IMG_0689 roamed with Sarah as the cheese (which I thought was the whole meal) IMG_0690 was set out.

As Jane checked out Jack IMG_0691 IMG_0692 Sylvia IMG_0693 IMG_0694 decided it was picture time and I took this self portrait IMG_0695 as my water IMG_0696 arrived to get a food picture IMG_0697 for Sylvia IMG_0698 to take. This IMG_0699 was Sylvia's next picture IMG_0700 as Larry IMG_0701 got Sarah, Emma and Jane IMG_0702 to pose IMG_0703 while Jack IMG_0704 IMG_0705 explored from his confines and Larry IMG_0706 called Toba while the womenfolk IMG_0707 IMG_0708 IMG_0709 IMG_0710 talked to the parents IMG_0711 about sleeping babies IMG_0712 food IMG_0713 babies together IMG_0714 Emma in her swing IMG_0715 and the meal IMG_0716 IMG_0717 IMG_0718 IMG_0719 IMG_0720 that got us all up IMG_0721 and eventually posed IMG_0722 IMG_0723 for Sylvia's picture IMG_0724 of this IMG_0725 and then another IMG_0726 which includes me :-) IMG_0727

Matt showed us the PU IMG_0728 onesie on Jack and we bade farewell to Emma IMG_0729 IMG_0730 IMG_0731 before heading to the streets of Baltimore IMG_0732 for the trip home.
