It was rainy a couple weeks ago. But a newly discovered bathroom leak was demanding some attention, so a family trip to Lowe's was in order... (we needed to brainstorm what all to do about this leak, not knowing how much of the shower will have to be dismantled to fix it, all of the tile grout being ancient and not necessarily worth putting back together as is, etc.) ...but I digress.

As with most posts, the point here is cuteness. Josephine in her nearly-too-small rain jacket, and her new shoes (squeakers removed :):

Before we left for church last Sunday: Sean and I have concluded that we really like it when her dresses start to get too short, because her belly makes them flare out in the front. :-) And to me she looks old-fashioned in a short dress, like Shirley Temple but, well, with less hair.
