Rice Cereal

Who doesn't love a good picture of a baby with food all over her? What a cutie! Charlotte had a whole week as an only child while Lily Kate stayed with her Soni in TN. It was really hard to be away from LK but it was really nice to give Charlotte some much-needed attention. She's such a second child, we hadn't started feeding her baby food until just last week because meal time is chaotic enough as it is :) She's a sweetie.

Playtime with Charlotte

I love this picture. This picture makes me proud of my little point and click camera. This is not me, it's Sarah going off the rope swing during our week at Tate, Park's family's lake house in GA. We got back last night from a wonderfully relaxing week. Myers and Laura's daughter, Lillian, is adorable. She's 1 (Her age is exactly between LK & Charlotte's - so much fun for years to come!). She's sitting in the sand in one of the pics below. The girls had a blast, swimming and playing in the sand all day long and getting loved on by their aunts and uncles and their Soni. We had been telling Lily Kate about Tate for about a week before we left (to build excitement and also to distract from our stressful move) and one day mid week LK and I were sitting on the porch and she said, "Mom, this is Tate?" and I said "yep, this is it" and she said "I like this". From the pictures below you can see.... what's not to like.

Lily Kate and Aunt Sarah, I see a bond forming :)

Adorable Lillian

This is my big girl who swing on a "big kid swing" and asks to "swing up to the sky". She thought it was funny to let her hands go at the top of the swing and watch me have a mini heart attack.

The dock

Charlotte had a great week. That child would be happy to be held all day long and she got her wish most of the day. All smiles, all week.

Camera batteries are packed....

We're still alive! We are moving. We've had a couple of paperwork setbacks and our closing was delayed to this week sometime. I packed the camera battery charger back when we thought we'd be in the house in a couple days and now I have no idea where it is. I'll unearth it soon and we'll be back in business. Today Lily Kate and Charlotte were sitting side by side (Char was supported in her boppy pillow - she can't sit yet) watching TV and LK's arm was around Charlotte. I was poised behind them to sneak a picture when my camera reminded me that the batteries were dead. Too bad. We'll show you the new house later this week.
