2 months old!

BAH!! I just love this girl! She's totally chunking out on us! At her last appointment she was 13lbs 11oz. WOW!! I love it. Just after her bath. Look at her long eyelashes, finally! They took forever to grow. Now if only she could grow some on her head! :)

She just started sitting in the Bumbo. She likes it pretty much. She'll sit here on the table while I make dinner or do dishes. She's such a good baby.
For the past three nights she is waking up a lot. I think it's because she's been taking 3-4 hour naps in the afternoon. We'll be stopping that. This morning I knew she was tired so I just laid her down in her crib and she cried for about 5 minutes and I went in. She immediately stopped crying and smiled a huge smile up at me. Grr. I laughed then got serious and said, "Charlotte, it's time to sleep! Go to sleep." Huge smile again as if to say... "Naw, I'm not really tired. And we both know you'll come get me if I cry enough!" So that was it. I left and let her cry for another maybe 15 minutes and she was out. I was proud of myself. We'll see how it goes tonight when I'm actually sleepy.

And so it begins....

Brody and Charlotte sittin in a tree.... K-I-S-S-I-N-G.....Jk, they're not up to that YET!? We had the Riddles over for some 4th festivities and Ariane and I wanted to get the kiddos together for a cute picture. (And we wanted a picture of them with their cute 4th outfits!!) Let me point out, NONE OF THIS IS STAGED!! Seriously, Brody did this all on his own, so cute :)
First.. hand on her knee :) Then he reached out and grabbed her hand.

Here she's trying to move her hand and he's trying to get a better grip.


This was a couple days ago when we went on a little family trip to the pool. I love going there and Charlotte really likes it too.



Charlotte's so cute bikini. It's getting kind of small so she'll probably only be wearing a couple more times :( Then it's one piece's from now on.



Well that's it. Hope everyone had a good weekend, cause we sure did. We love you Riddle Family!!!!
