Family, Friends & Toys

Bella's cousins came to visit Saturday and we almost missed them, but Bella and I got home just in time for them to hold her and take this cute picture.

Our friend Pam came to visit last night.

Our friend Cari picked up this new toy for us at a consignment sale this weekend. It has been an instant hit!

Day of Firsts

Today was quite a day! We found out today that we are in the 10% on the growth chart and since she is growing so well we are now treating her for her actual age (6.5 months) instead of her gestational age (4.5 months). So we tried cereal for the first time tonight and she did GREAT! I think she might have even liked it. She kept opening her mouth for more and she didn't spit any up (I said up not out :)) so I took that as a good sign. She also decided that today would be the day she would roll over for the first time! How cool is that?! The first time I had turned my back to get a toy and when I turned around she was on her back. Then I put her back on her tummy and I watched her do it again. She even performed for Daddy when he came home. It's all happening so fast!

Growing

We are now 14lb and 24.5 in, but what I want to know is why the shot cries last less than a min. when Daddy is there?

Here is a picture our friend took when we were visiting.

Well Cared For

It is so sweet to see Bella's cousins with her. They are so good to her! Lauren is going to be a great Mommy one day. She spent the evening taking care of Bella. Holding her, feeding her (as you can see in the picture), getting her room ready for her to go to bed and so many other things.

Pretty Face

I was trying to get a good picture of Grant and Bella at the restaurant where we were eating tonight, but Grant got embarrassed and made me put the camera away, but I did manage to get this beautiful picture.

Snow Day

Bella's first year has been the year of snow. As if I needed another reason to love being home, it was so awesome to sit and watch the snow falling with Bella. 10" and still snowing, can you belive it?
