And There She Goes

I blame the western United States and all their wide open, carpeted spaces for this latest developmental leap. I'm not ready for what this is going to mean for my life. Mostly the sweeping our floor part of it.

Bonus

This is what we see every time we lay her down to change her diaper, or her clothes, or to do anything. It's really fun.

Five Months

 

She's been to 10 states with us already. (not counting the ones we flew over) She was a champ on every flight and only had a few meltdowns in the faces of her relatives. She's basically crawling. She has a raspy laugh/howl thing going. We gave her some real food and she can't get enough of it. She's fun to play with. She spends most of her day being frustrated about something being just out of her grasp. I love watching her focus on something and try to get it/do it/etc.
This girl's the best.

New Year's Eve

Another night of family, food, games, and watching the countdown 2 hours early
(and in Spanish for some reason).
Another night of Gwen trying to stay cool in the middle of it all.
A habit I think will come in handy for many New Year's Eves to come.

Christmas Day

Christmas day was beautifully white with snow. Regan woke up the earliest and couldn't go back to sleep because he was so excited. Now that it's just a memory, I guess that's cute and not annoying. Family was in and out all day so we got to have lots of excited kids around opening presents and rocking new baby dolls and shooting nerf darts at us.

Finally, some baby pictures around here!
