ABCs

Lizzy has been singing almost non stop for the last week. While sticking to the rhythm and fairly close to the tune she's been making up lyrics about the things around her and segueing from one to another.

Lizzy loves to sing

I would love to catch her on video making up songs, and also singing the true words to "Now I know my ABC's, but her favorite thing to do is make up new verses to "The Wheels on the Bus." After I finished pumping this morning, Lizzy was singing, "The mommies on the bus go, pump, pump, pump, All through the town!"

Halloween 2010

Mommy sorted out the loot and Lizzy stuffs in chewy treats with no costume on (no sticky on the ladybug-we have to recycle it)

The girls play together

Fall picking in Indiana

Picking grapes at the vineyard and picking apples with Daddy. Lizzy likes to hide in the vines and the trees.

ZooBoo

We took the girls to the zoo this weekend for Zooboo. The zoo was decorated for Halloween and there were a few trick-or-treat stations. Lizzy didn't care that much, but wanted to see the animals as usual. We checked out the sharks and grizzly bears (only the tame animals for Lizzy) and then did a bit of trick-or-treating. I think she has the hang of it and will do really well getting treats in the neighborhood on Halloween.

Katherine's first feeding

Katherine's first food a couple days before she turned 6 months old. It was oatmeal cereal that I never opened with Lizzy! Katherine loved it and has moved onto acorn squash, green beans, sweet potato, and carrots. She likes to eat with the family and Lizzy likes to try to feed her, or at least pull her chair closer so she can lean on the tray.
