New/Old Pajamas

My mom saved some of my clothes from when I was little...these are a pair of my jammies when I was little. Zoe was excited to wear them for bedtime. She would say, "Look at my pretty jammies, daddy!" I know there is a picture of me in these...I will have to look for it!

6 months!

I turned 6 months old yesterday.
Image

Mommy says I'm getting too big, too fast! At my appointment this morning I was 26.25 inches long (70th) and 14lbs 12oz (24th). Head circumference was 40.4cm (5%). So in true family fashion...long, skinny & a small melon.
Image
I roll both ways & scoot along on my back to get where I want to go. Sometimes my scooting gets me in trouble & I get stuck in the corner or up against a wall. This makes me angry.
Image
I'm a happy girl & pretty laid back most of the time. I like chewing on everything. Mommy thinks I may be working on teeth. She blames my night time awakenings on them...but I really just like to see her. She says 4 times a night is excessive, but I don't think so...
Image
I like my rice cereal & oatmeal. Applesauce made my lips pucker up & my toes curl, but mommy keeps feeding it to me. I hear that peaches & beans are in my near future, whatever those are.
Image
Happy 1/2 birthday to me!

Colorado

We spent a heavenly 6 days in Colorado last week (ok, almost heavenly...the whining, fighting, etc did accompany us...we are normal, hehe) We had a great time & look forward to going back in the future!

Day 1 - Garden of the Gods
Image
Celebrating daddy's birthday with ice cream cake, yum!
Image

Day 2 - The Royal Gorge

I think they should outlaw vehicles on it...I didn't care for them driving by me while I was walking :)
Image
The incline ride...we are at the bottom looking up at where we started from. I will say that the thought of the wires breaking did cross my mind several times as we were moving.

In front of the Kansas flag.

Day 3 - Cheyenne Mountain Zoo & Focus on the Family

Image
Image

Focus on the family playroom - they also had a 3 story slide. The giggles I heard the first time they went down were priceless! We spent a lot of time playing there.
Image

Day 4 - Church at Flying W Ranch & fishing/playing at the park
Image

Day 5 - Papa & Mama showed up - a fun surprise for the kids (and us). We were able to go hiking up the mountain with the boys, while the girls napped with Papa & Mama!

Day 6 - Hiking, "Creeking" & Playing!

Roomies

Image
These two cuties now share a room - Soph moved out of our closet & into Zoe's room on Sunday night. They have been doing GREAT...other than Sophie acting like a newborn & waking up 3-4 times each night! Luckily, Sophie just grunts a little & Zoe sleeps right through it. Zoe thinks it's pretty special to have a roommate now!
