Day 94
Today we visited with Rich, Karen and Declan King. They live in Charlotte, North Carolina, and they are very nice. I know them already, because they came to Ranch Week in July, but this is the first time I met Declan. He's cool. He likes construction equipment.
Tomorrow: Charleston!

Day 93
I'm 3 months old today!
We're on another road trip. Daddy has a month of Air Force Reserve duty in Charleston, South Carolina, and we're going with him... Mommy, Wilson, Bailey and me. Needless to say, the car is pretty packed.
Tonight we're staying with Dean, Kim, Bronte and Ansel Cook in Maryland. They are so nice :-) Tomorrow we're off to North Carolina. How exciting!

Day 88
Back in New York.
Today was my cousin Nicolas' fifth birthday. We went to the Roosevelt Nature Center at Jones Beach to celebrate with him and all his friends.

Day 81
Bo and Ana got married today in a lovely ceremony at the Santa Barbara Zoo. I wasn't able to attend... something about a "bed time" and me being a baby. I heard it was lots of fun.
California is a fun place in general. I like it here. Hopefully I will live here soon (take the hint Mom and Dad).

Day 77
Another landmark day for Izzy-Bee:
I rolled over for the first time this morning!
Later in the day, we visited mommy & daddy's friends Brice and Mandy in Downey, CA, and daddy's cousins Joe and Celine Fabio in Norwalk, CA... those towns are near Los Angeles.

Day 76
We flew to California on Jet Blue again today. Fortunately, we had no delays this time and arrived safe and sound after 5 hours in the air.
We came out here so that mommy and daddy can go to a wedding. One of mommy's friends from high school, Bo, is getting married to Ana. She's from Brazil.
Grandma Delfina met us at Burbank airport and drove us back to her house in Santa Barbara.

Day 75
Five years ago men crashed airplanes in to the buildings here in New York. It was a sad day.
Everyone in my town remembers September 11th, 2001 in different ways. They put up 3000 flags in our park to commemorate those who died. I hope it never happens again.

Day 74
I'm 10 weeks and 3 days old today. But daddy turned 35 today! He's now old enough to be the President of the United States. I bet he'd do a better job than the guy who's running the joint right now :-)

Day 71
It's Opening Night for the NFL and my team, the Pittsburgh Steelers are handing it to the Miami Dolphins.
A solid win for the defending Super Bowl champs... 28-17. And a fine showing for my first Steelers game ever.
Charlie Batch looked good filling in for the recovering Big Ben Roethlisberger, and Willie Parker certainly proved himself worthy of his hefty price tag tonight. Perhaps we're destined for a repeat this season? Only time will tell.

Day 68
It's Labor Day! Who knew there was a holiday to celebrate the process of birthing babies?
It's also daddy's cousin Steve Cooney's birthday. He's 33 now. We've stayed at his and Christa's house in Pittsburgh. It was awesome. They have the best collection of toys, EVER!

Day 67
Today we continued our trip down to Pittsburgh and I visited with the Fabios. Grandpa Mark was so happy to meet me. Everyone always seems so happy to meet me. I guess that's because I'm super-cute. At least that's what daddy says.

Day 66
I'm on my first real "road trip" today. We drove from New York to Pennsylvania so I could meet Daddy's family.
Today I visited with the Cooneys. They like to hang out around the campfire and drink beer. A fun (and loud) bunch, to say the least. What can I say... these are my people.
