Christmas Eve

Putting her first ornament on the tree

Wow this present is great

What is it?

OH Santa just what I asked for, I love it!

I can't believe that Tilly was already 7 months on December 18th!  We had such a wonderful Christmas celebration with Ben, Lindsay, Cole, Alaina and of course, Tutu and GPaw.  Enjoy the pictures and Happy New Year to all.

Lots of catching up to do.....

Thanksgiving in Wisconsin

 Happy 6 months Matilda

Meeting Santa Claus for the first time

Matilda has hit so many milestones lately!  She is rolling over, sitting up by herself and EATING!  Eating like a champ, I don't know if I have ever seen a kid eat so much.  Some of her favorites so far are sweet potatoes and of course, all fruit.  She really liked the peaches that I froze from this summer.

Pumpkin Patch

Loves her shades, it was bright 

Hey guys, why are you doing this to me?

Daddy's Girl

Where's the baby?

This is more like it, can I eat this?

The best part was all of the people that asked Wade to take his picture because they thought he looked like the guy in the hangover.  I think that it is time for a shave

This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch.  The weather was perfect, Tilly had to wear her shades it was so bright out.  We were with great friends and Melissa took some beautiful shots of us and Tilly.

Family trip to the beach

Mom stop taking my picture, notice the designer duds her father brought her back from NY

This past weekend we went to the beach, the whole family, all five of us.... it was a full car but everyone had a fabulous time.  The dogs still haven't moved since we returned last night.

First Food

Mom where is it, I am ready

Yum this stuff is good

At Tilly's 4 month appointment we got the go ahead to start rice cereal.  She loved it and is going to be a good eater.

Four Months already!

Happy Four Months

In her first pair of jeans

And her first mini skirt

Wow.... I can't believe that Matilda Joy is already 4 months.  She had her four month check up today and everything looks fantastic.  Her stats are as follows:  Weight 13lbs, 8.5 oz; Height 24 inches; head is 40.5 cm she is in the 50% and growing with the curve beautifully.  She is wearing her 3 to 6 months clothes and I sadly packed her 3 month summer clothes away this week.  Still in size 1 diapers which is good because we have a lot of them, the left overs will be packed up for number two also.  Tilly's new tricks are rolling over, in fact she will not tolerate being on her back but as soon as she reaches her tummy she doesn't want any of it... we are working on rolling back over.  She has also found her voice, her favorite words are high pitches squeals of excitement and recently, very loud screams to make sure we are listening.  She is the happiest little baby on the block and I just can't believe how lucky we are to have such a blessing in our lives.

AND this will catch us up... I will be a better mom from this day forward

Babies everywhere!
