My Lucky Day!

I DID IT!
I FINALLY got a picture of L smiling!

My cute little Lucky Charm!
Now you may be thinking..."shouldn't you have 2 little lucky charms?"
And the answer would normally be yes, but my other "lucky charm" wasn't so lucky today...

 See what I mean?

 I love these two pictures though!  Pretty sure L will be my compassionate child.

Until she realizes its better to just watch. :)
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

L at 6 Months

6 months. Half a year.  That is how long it has been since I had my baby.

It is going by WAY to fast!  I swear we just brought her home form the hospital!  She is growing like a weed and it's freaking me out!  I'm getting so old!  Breathe.
Anyway, let's see...this month.
-This month Lydia learned to roll from her back to her stomach. Finally.  She still won't do it when she sleeps though. Which is annoying. (She sleeps on her stomach and will roll from stomach to back and will refuse to sleep until she is turned back over)
-She is also sitting up on her own.  Occasionally falls, but for the most part she stays up.

-She still hates baby cereal and baby food.  After talking to our Pediatrician she suggested just starting L on fruits and then slowly working the cereal into the fruit and then hope for the best with vegetables.  It's better that she eats something, than eats nothing.  So we started the fruits.  She likes bananas.  So far that's it.  We'll work on other food. :)
-She screams like a banshee!  Holy cow!  When she's awake, or frustrated or wants to be held, EVERYONE knows it.  Slightly annoying.
-Had a double ear infection...and I had NO idea!  Guess she has a good pain tolerance or something, because other than a prolonged cough which took us to the doctor, I had no idea she had the double ear infection.  Poor kid.  Her cough is bad too.  Makes you want to cry when she has a coughing fit!
-Still loves to suck on things.  Especially shoulders.  Don't know what it is, but as soon as you hold her up she immediately sticks her mouth to your shoulder.  Doesn't matter who you are!
-Still has no expression in pictures, but this is the best we could get as far as variation goes!

This one is by far my favorite!  Love my little bug!

The many faces of E and the one face of L

So I took pictures today with these adorable shirts I've been dying to have my girls wear.  Of course E is full of different faces.  She's 2.  But L only has one.  STILL.  I promise you she is a happy, smiley baby who giggles all the time, but you would never believe it by just looking at pictures.  She NEVER smiles.  She always has this blank look on her face.  Silly girl.  You'll see what I mean (if you haven't noticed it already)

 Cute daddy matched.  Don't know if it was on purpose or accident, but it was cute. :)

 Haha!  That one makes me chuckle.

 Why yes.  She does always have this much attitude.

 BFF's! (I hope)

See what I mean?  Same face!  I hope she grows out of it! :)
