JOLIE,
SUMMER 2002

6/01/02, out on the back deck of our house. Jolie
really likes being outside. |

Even Jolie's scowls bust me up. This is her
"OK this was fun, but now I'm sick of it, get me out of this
thing" look. |

She is really into it, though. She's really into
touching things these days, so this is a cool toy. |

This is Jolie's saucer that Daddy just put
together. She's still too small for it. Her feet don't reach
the bottom, so she can't move herself around. |

Getting pictures taken with Daddy makes me laugh.
Jolie wasn't used to seeing her dad on picture side of the camera. |

This is Jolie with the best daddy ever, and Galvin the
Chihauhau (Lynn and Bill's dog.) |

No, we didn't buy Jolie a Barbie Jeep at the age of 4 months. This
is Jolie's cousin Nicole's big 2nd birthday present. |

Jolie does seem to be really enjoying the Barbie Jeep though. |

Bev and Jolie from Kyle Julian's 1st Birthday party,
6/23/02. |

Here's Jolie at her first Reading Phillies game,
6/30/02. |

I took Jolie for a ride in the stoller to calm her
down. When we got back, this was how she was sleeping. |

Jolie at Bev's parents' house on 4th of July. |

Yet another cute picture. |

Jolie and her cousin AnnaLia dancing. |

Bev and Jolie,
7/04/02. |

The first picture of all five grandkids. I took
about 12 pictures. This was as close as we came to a shot with all 5
of them standing still and sort of looking at the camera. |

Jolie in one of her bathing suits, just before her first
experience in a real pool at the Malinowski family reunion. (The
pool experiment lasted about...oh...15 seconds.) |

Another picture of Jolie sitting in the grass in the
backyard. |

Jolie and a clear blue sky in mid-July. |

Jolie absolutely loves being outside and sitting in the
grass. |

|

Rolly Polly Jolie Stromboli, at her Aunt Deb's 40th
birthday party, 8/10/02. |

Jolie shows her flexibility...oh, stop...if you could suck
on your toes, you would too! |

Pierce is loves his cousin Jolie. |

From the photo-shoot in the backyard for Jolie's 6-month
birthday, 8/11/02. |

 |

If you click on this picture, you can see that Jolie really
does have hair! It's just coming in VERY light so she looks bald in
most of these pictures. |

Although I do sometimes put my foot in my mouth, Jolie
doesn't get her flexibility from me. |

Daddy's #1! |

I love this outfit, especially these little matching
shoes. |

She can do a split, too! |
|
 |

These three pictures were taken on 9/01/02. |
 |

Must be something about this carpet. Her cutest
pictures have been taken right there. |

Don't you love hot pink baby shoes? |

Sloppy messy baby. |

Here's a picture of one of Jolie's first crawls. She
became mobile just a few days before this picture was taken. |

These were all taken on 9/11/02, Jolie's 7 month birthday. |

It's hard to believe that almost a year before this picture
was taken, on 9/12/01, I sat in front of the TV watching George Bush talk,
and I felt the kick in Bev's belly for the first time. |

It was hard to take these pictures because every time I'd
set her down she'd immediately crawl right at me. |
