5 Months


Leah was 5 months this past week.  Time flies!

(Like this "5 Month" sign, my glasses, our dinner, earrings, books, nostrils, Lucy's tail...)


And look!  She can read!

Well, Ok, not yet...

Six Months

Our little Leah is 6 months old!  Ok, and she's not so little.  She weighed in at 17 lbs. 12 oz. and is in the 80th percentile for weight and the 90th for height.  We get good arm workouts carrying her around.  In other news, we are both done with school until the fall and are looking forward to a summer as a family.  We'll post more about the previous hectic weeks soon!   (Love this one! )
