Front porch of our Winspear Avenue house in Buffalo

When Bill was born we lived in an upstairs apartment near the Buffalo Zoo.  I don't have any pictures of that place; we weren't there long…but we finally moved into faculty housing on the edge of the campus of the University of Buffalo.  




Our address was 208 Winspear Avenue.  We enjoyed that house a lot. It had a great sun porch and a fireplace in the living room.

The lady on the left in these pictures was Bill's godmother.  Her name was Charlotte Claflin.  I met her through la Leche League.

As you can see by this time I was in maternity clothes again; Margaret Ellen was on the way.  She was born January 30, 1962.

Loving the outdoors, Western New York, fall 1960




 In the fall of 1960 Hayne and I took the kids to the country.  We visited a couple of state parks, and even spent the night in one of them.  One of the advantages of breast feeding a child is that you can just pick up and go anywhere …and we did enjoy our weekends when the kids were little.
