Firsts...

Annelise is trying solid foods now....she isn't a huge fan but she ate some peaches the other day and seemed to be mildly interested in them. I am skipping the whole cereal thing because of stuff I've read about how difficult it is for babies to digest grains - they really don't have the enzymes in their tummies to digest them until they are around 1. Also, Annelise has her first tooth!

I love the Sound of Music so we have learned Do-Re-Mi....

Annelise at 6 months

Annelise is getting so big! She weighs 18 lbs 5 oz (95%) and is 27 3/4 inches long (97%). She isn't a big fan of real food yet....I've tried some but she just spits it out. She is a great sleeper though, even though all she eats is breastmilk! She typically sleeps from 6 or 6:30 pm to 8:00 am!
Here is a video of her:

CHRISTmas 2010!

Annelise - 5 months, Charlotte at 2 1/2 years

Here are a few pictures we took before Christmas of Annelise at 5 months and Charlotte at 2 1/2 years. Annelise is rolling around now and can almost sit up. She is up on her tummy doing the plank position a lot, rocking, getting ready to take off crawling.

Charlotte is such a joy at this age. She plays by herself well but really loves to do whatever I am doing. She loves going to bible study and told me the other day that, "there is 1 God, and He can do whatever He wants to do!" She also asked David why she couldn't see Jesus and he explained that you ask Him to come live in your heart. She responded with, "I want Jesus to live in my heart!" Charlotte is such a kind thoughful girl!





Thanksgiving

So much to be thankful for! We had a great Thanksgiving, spending time with family in Spartanburg and Toxaway.
