Milestones

If you find your life is dull or lacking excitement you are more than welcome to stop by. We like to keep things interesting around here and with a four month old that is not hard to do. She is literally growing up before my eyes, achieving a new developmental milestone daily. You have to be really careful; you’ll miss them if you blink! Thankfully, I’ve been able to catch a few of them with my camera.

She figured out rolling! Well, half of it. She makes it from her back to her stomach, where she is happy for about two minutes tops, and then quickly becomes no longer proud of her accomplishment.

With a four month birthday comes the freedom to eat with a spoon. We started with rice cereal. I think she enjoys it.

And with this new found body strength we’ve introduced the Johnny Jump Up. She doesn’t quite understand the jumping aspect, but she does enjoy her new view on the world.

Burke isn’t the only one experiencing new things around here though. Seth had quite the milestone himself; He has discovered Samoas. (Or as I always knew them, Carmel deLites). Yet another reminder of how unfortunate it is that Girl Scout Cookie Season only comes once a year. But luckily (thanks to Pinterest) I have managed to find a recipe for a homemade version as someone has requested the invention of a Samoa Blizzard. I’ll let you know how that goes…
