We've been busy around here

Millie is officially a big girl and out of diapers (except while sleeping). This picture just captures her personality to a "t" right now. 

Tommy is a champion sitter and has been since about 5 months. However he still doesn't roll over and hates being on his tummy.

The "bald boys" in glasses.

Millie's prize for learning to use the potty - a pink scooter!

Play dates with friends.

Millie learned how to ride her trike!

Charlie learned how to ride his bike without training wheels! Adam had a big talk with him about how he'd probably fall down a lot and he might get hurt but he'd have to keep trying until he figured it out. Then Adam took the wheels off and helped Charlie get on the bike and off he went. He didn't even fall once. I guess it was time. :)

So proud.

I spent a couple of weeks sewing up these super hero costumes and then a couple days before Halloween Charlie decided he wanted to be the Hulk instead. Not this year bud.

At the Embassy Halloween party with our great friends, the Ibrahims.

Tommy turned six months!

The week before his six month birthday he got his first two teeth. You can barely see them poking through in this picture.

Tommy got to try solids. I was planning to wait a couple more months to let this guy have any solids but he just wants to be like the big kids so bad that I gave in. he doesn't really eat much but we put some food on his plate and let him play. We're trying the baby-led-weaning approach this time so we're mostly steering clear of "baby food." So far Tommy has tried apples and watermelon and rice cereal. He's mostly a fan of licking it and squishing it and making a mess.
