Mirror, Mirror

Mae loves to look at herself...who can blame her?

"What you doin'?"

I don't think that Miles has stopped talking for at least a month.

7 Months

Mae loves to be outside

she loves her daddy

she really loves her mommy

she enjoys a good book

she loves to chew on Sophie

spit bubbles are a must

she likes being tossed in the air (I hate it)

she tolerates the thousands of pictures I take

(I included this photo so that you can see why half of Mae's clothes won't go over her arms)

and most of all...... she loves her brother

This Week

Mae and Macy (Mae pulled out a chunk of Macy's hair as this photo was being taken)

Miles and some cat that was in our backyard

Mae looking fancy

Ready for bed

Ready for fun

Caught in the act (look at that mischievous face!)

Looking studious

Feed Me!

More work?

I can't decide if doing double bath makes things easier or harder.......

I can't help myself

I take way too many pictures of Mae but I can't help myself...

Big Baby Alert

Today was Mae's 6 month checkup (a couple weeks late). Mae currently weighs 18lbs 13oz and is 28 inches long. She is off the chart for height and head size and is in the 90th percentile for wight. The nurse looked at the chart and said that Mae is exactly average size.....for a 10 month old :)
Here is a list of Mae's like and dislikes (so far)
Likes
1. sleeping next to me all night (this would fall into my dislikes category)
2. sweet potatoes
3. rolling all over the place
4. putting everything in her mouth
5. Miles and his toys
6.bath time
Dislikes
1. sleeping in her crib
2. getting dressed in her pjs
3. applesauce
4. car rides in the dark
5. being held for too long
6. when I eat spicy food

New Year's Eve

Will Miles ever take a group photo with his fingers out of his mouth?

Did someone say a movie and marshmallows?

Mae wanted me to hold her the entire time!

Playing mind games....

Our future babysitter

Big boys and little girls....that doesn't sound right but you know what I mean

Ruby Jane

finding her inner peace

Clara

Over the past 5 years or so we have spent New's Year's Eve with the Damian Family. One year we might even stay up until midnight.

Terry's Birthday

(this is the only picture I took on his actual birthday)

Jenny and Ian watched Miles and Mae (no pictures were taken) while Terry and I tried to go to his favorite restaurant. It didn't turn out as we planned but Terry and I got a couple hours to ourselves and Miles got to dump out all of Zephyr's toys :) Miles and Terry are enjoying Terry's BDay gift.

Christmas

Christmas was really fun this year. Miles sort of got the Santa thing and he loved all his gifts. We had a wonderful day spending time with family and eating good food.
