Say Peas!

First things first- Welcome Baby Brenna! We are excited to announce a new cousin born Sept 28. Her pictures are adorable and we can't wait to meet her in person soon.

I never did figure out how to do the video. But I'll keep trying. Here are some long- awaited photos instead.

I was working on transitioning Charlie to the nursery for naps at least. This is what he did when I put him on a pallet on the floor.

And this is where he went when I didn't strap him into the bouncer seat.


Charlie started eating solids recently. At first he would only eat about a teaspoon every day or two. Now he's a certified chow hound. He does not care for fruits (except figs) and he loves peas and green beans the most. I think Ted has as much fun feeding Charlie as Charlie has eating.

I love this picture because you can see Ted coaching him to open his mouth.

Another great tub shot

Last weekend we celebrated Uncle Jer's birthday at a park festival. As we were loading up, some adults took the kids to the playground. Charlie loves to go down a slide, particularly when there is someone going down the slide next to him. After giggling at Maxwell sliding for several minutes, we walked over to the swings. There sat Violet all alone in a giant swing seat. That big space behind her was just begging for another baby.

The results:

I love checking this site and seeing Charlie grow & grow. Violet & Charlie are so adorable; you can see what a wonderful time they are having. Oh, those memories will last forever!
Love, Aunt Gracie

Ash - you have such a happy baby! I can't believe how big he is getting - it's great that you're doing crib transition this early - Danielle was 8 months when we finally did it and while it's wasn't horrible, it wasn't easy!
