My favorite memory is easily the moment I met Grace.

This moment was the sweetest, most precious thing in the entire world:

Baby Bug

My little Charley Bug is already seven months old.   She is so dainty and girly, but this month she has really started to feel solid. When you pick her up, she's more compact and full.  She has long, curled lashes and the best lips ever. Her hair is darker than Grace's and will probably be more like mine. It seems straight and thick and has started to grow a little faster. At seven months, I think we can officially say Charley is a crawler. She moves from one side of the room to the other so quickly. She rolls, scoots, and now she can get up on all fours and get where she's going. She loves to eat pouches just like Gracie did.  Her favorites are sweet potatoes, chicken and brown rice, and peaches. She has six teeth - the two middle bottom ones and her top four front teeth. She loves to jump up and down in her bouncer. Charley is wearing size 6-12 months although it's pretty big on her. She can still fit into her 3-6 month...

Our little smiley guy is seven months old today. We're on the downhill slope to his first birthday, and I'm not sure I'm ready for it. I'm not going to lie. I couldn't wait for him to get to this age. Isaac was so paranoid about every sound and movement the baby made after his first boy was born, that he had me paranoid, too. First, we were worried that he wasn't making eye contact. Then he wasn't smiling. Then he didn't laugh out loud. I remember thinking when he was teeny tiny that I couldn't wait for him to be bigger, so I knew that he was OK. Well, guess what? He's just fine and does all of those things plus more. He also tries to talk to us in long sing-song noises, but he hasn't made any distinct mama or dada sounds just yet.  This big boy can sit up on his own now, which is so fun. He loves to sit on the floor and play with his toys, and he lights up when you call him "big boy". When he's on his belly on ...

Last Week...

Picture of the Week: The Original, The Remix, The Encore, Mic Drop. Brother chewed on highlighters at the office on Monday. Perry and Acelyn had their second dance class and may have loved it even more than the first time. Perry was waiting for class to start and told me, "Ohhh, it's going to be so hard, and I'm going to do so good!". Charley hung out with Brother, and they watched Perr dance through the glass. She curtsied and blew a kiss at the end. The girls played outside when we got home, and Perry kept asking me to take her picture in her pretty dress. I think she was made for this dance thing. Brother was a good boy at soccer practice. He was also good at the office on Tuesday, hanging out in his rocker and giving me smiles before dozing off. After his nap, he watched Zootopia and played some more. He was all smiles, and even some giggles, at my nail appointment after work...
