This and that

Evening all,

Finally, a family photo and we're all looking at the camera! So, I just finished putting together a brief testimonial I'm giving at a luncheon this week. The luncheon benefits the parent organization I'm a part of. It was surprisingly emotional to tell Bea's story. Nine + months later and I'm still shaken by the thought of her harrowing start.

Anyhow, I thought it was time to give a little update:

• Bea is one week of shy being 10 months old (we're going by her real age now)
  
• Current weight is about 18 pounds and she is lengthening out quite a bit as well
• She has TWO teeth!
• We took her first blackmail picture (aka naked bathtub pic with a boy)
• She is almost-almost-almost crawling
• The crib is more like jungle gym time than sleepy time now
• We say "Ga-ga-ga-ga-ga" and squeal at a pitch so high the cats wince
• Bea WAVES, but mostly just at herself or the floor

All very exciting (and exhausting) developments. I'll include a few more pictures below.



Bea and her friend Jasper. They hate us for this someday.







Hmmm, tasty.






Swings!
