And a month later

*sigh*

Finally moved out of the old apartment. Into the new one, trying to settle in. I will have to get pics from the last month or so from Ruth because I just haven't taken many. Not that Leah has changed all that dramatically in less than a month.

What is new with the lil one. She started to get a lil bit of solids in her. Not much. A lil rice cereal now and again. I am going to hold off on anything else for now. If I could've done things as I wanted to, ideally, I would've just nursed her for the first year, but alas, that is not so.

Anyway, so she is sitting a little bit on her own. Has started babbling away. She can sit in her bouncy sit and talk a mile an hour, not skip a beat. When she wants your attention her talking gets a little higher pitched. She has a personality, thats for sure. She laughs and giggles a lot. All I have to do is look at her and her face cracks into a huge smile. Nothing like it.

She lost a bit more of her hair and the new hair is a little auburnish. She definitely has my family's coloring. I think she looks a lot like Matt.

What else, oh and her newest thing is blowing raspberries with her mouth. She can seriously sit there for an hour just doing that. Too cute.

I think she is growing well. Seems to be a pretty happy baby. She has her visits downstairs with the landlord and their kids. She is loved immediately by everyone who meets her. I hope she can put her great temperament to use when she is all grown up. But I am in no rush to see that happen.

I spend nearly all day with her and I wouldn't give that up, not for a million bucks.

Very cool having lil Miss Leah in our lives.

Here she is entertaining me and herself with her raspberries.

New Year's

Spent part of New Year's at Zoe's with Leah. A lil before midnight we brought her back to Laurie and Louies. And went back to Zoe's.

Here is a pic Kitti took of Matt and me right before midnight...
