Charlotte is seven months old!  Where has the time gone?  We had a great visit with Papa and Emma at the beginning of the month.  It’s so much fun to watch your own kids enjoy their grandparents.  The big event in Elise’s life this month has been potty training.  Mommy had enough of pull-ups, so we made the big switch to underwear.  Elise caught on quickly and after only a week has been accident-free (excluding sleeping).  She very much wants to do it all herself and only when she wants to, and once I quit asking her to “try” and just let her go when she felt she needed to, we started getting along great!  Charlotte started sitting up independently this month and loves being part of the action.  She likes to babble (her favorite ah-da-da).  She’s a bit of a mommy’s girl, especially when she’s tired.  She’s enjoying solid food more and getting more into her tummy instead of on her bib.  She is sweet and snuggly, fun and spunky!

Charlotte is six months old!  She weathered another cold this month but nothing like her sickness last month.  She’s become very skilled at rolling from back to front, and therefore has had to learn to sleep on her tummy because she hasn’t figure out yet how to get back over.  She loves the sound of her own voice and loves her big sister.  Around the middle of the month she started eating cereal… very messy.  We took a family trip to the zoo this month and are enjoying more time outside as the weather warms up.  Cassie had surgery to repair her acl at the beginning of the month but is slow in getting function back.

Charlotte is five months old!  This month she got her first illness, and it was a doozy for the first one - not fun!  She has discovered her toes, and they’re quite tasty. She likes to sleep mostly on her right side now, sucking her thumb - so cute!  And she sits well on my hip now.  We had a really busy month with a trip to FL for all of us, a short trip to NC for Josh and way too many trips to the doctor’s office for the three of us girls (9 in a month).  By the end of the month, we’re all healthy again.

We had a good trip to FL to visit family, in spite of 3 ear infections, one sinus infection, and one bronchiolitis.  It was a great place to rest and recover and the extra hands were so appreciated!  There were several trips to the playground, lots of books read, one trip to the beach, and a great backyard to explore.
