Fourth of July

I'm feeling left out because everyone I know has cute pictures of their kids decked out in red, white, and blue for the fourth. Here is the only picture we took that day. But, this picture is an important one. It documents the first time C held her bottle all by herself for the entire feeding. Independence day indeed.

Sippy Cup Training

It's harder than it looks.

Happy Birthday!

Today B hits the big 2-5. I'm especially excited because it means I'm now only three years older than her (for two months, anyway). Hopefully B likes her birthday present - we're closing on our house this afternoon! Happy birthday to the most wonderful wife I could have ever hoped for. Love you!

Our Little Swimmer

A Few Cute Pics

She's mastered sitting up.

My Lady C

We went to Medieval Times on Friday night and had a lot of fun.

C looked so cute in her crown.
Of course, she preferred to eat it.
We cheered for the green knight.
He even threw a yellow flower to C.
Our waitress or "wench" was really funny and even called D "My Lord." At one point, she caught us using our smuggled silverware and made everyone around us boo (part of the medieval experience is eating the meal with your hands).

Happy Half-Birthday C!

To celebrate, Cl got to go to the doctor for three shots. She was very tough this time and only cried for 2.5 seconds. Our little giant is in the 90th percentile for length (27 1/4 in.), between 50th and 75th for weight (16 lbs. 5 oz.), and 50th for head size (16 3/4 in.). Her half-birthday present was a new high chair and her half-birthday dinner on Saturday night was carrots. She LOVED them.

Checking out the new chair.
More carrots please!
Thanks Dad!
Mother's Day
Dad decided to experiment with pomade --bad idea.
