Brooke & Lindsay

Brooke got her hands on Lindsay's chex mix snack bowl and was very happy getting a taste!



This convinced us it's time to try some rice cereal on a spoon with her now and we've been very successful eating that way the last couple of days!

2008 Christmas Photo Shoot

Today was an interesting day. I was scheduled to see my neurosurgeon and at the last minute they cancelled my appointment due to an emergency surgery. So Mike and I decided to make use of a good week day off for me and get some Christmas pics of the girls and do some cards. We tried out Portrait Innovations and now I see why everyone I know who uses them does. The photographers were great and they had good ideas and great props!

Can you tell we bribed Lindsay with a really big COOKIE today???

These are just the sweetest...

My fave pic of Brooke! Check out that dimple!

Gotta love the Carter's matching PJ's

Obviously we didn't buy this one but it was just funny to see Brooke's expression here!

Brooke's Four Month Check Up

Wednesday November 12 we went to Brooke's four month appt. She was up from 12 pounds 4oz to 15 pounds 2oz! She also grew an inch in length now charting at 24 1/4 inches long! She's in the 75-90% in weight and head circ. and 50% in length. We are officially started on rice cereal in the bottle now. That is something we never did with Lindsay either. It seems that Brooke takes 6-7 ounces of formula and then wants to eat again in 3 hours instead of 4-5. So the doc told us to beef it up a bit and add the cereal to the feedings! In another month or so we'll start trying to do some spoon feedings with the rice cereal. I can hardly believe we're already thinking about spoon feedings with her! Here are some cute pics of the girls and they once again loaded backwards on blogger...
