Fem månader

Igår blev Edith fem månader gammal. Hon är fortfarande en aktiv (stor) liten dam, som pratar och skrattar mycket och sover lite.

 

 

 

 

 

Lot's of Edith pictures!

Again, sorry for the lack of updates recently. Edith hasn't been sleeping well, so the days have been pretty much "survival mode" for Kristina, and I've been pretty busy with classes. The last few days have been better though. As a result, here are a ton of pictures from the past weeks!

Looking cute:

When she looks at a book, she usually screams the entire time:

Two weeks ago, we had our friends Cyndy, Andrea, Kirsten, and Alyssa over for lunch. Everyone took a turn holding Edith:

No comment on that big, blue belly:

I thought this would make a good picture, but Edith was clearly not impressed:

90% cute:

1,000,000 % CUTE:

As I said, she hasn't been sleeping well...we both have puffy eyes (Roll Tide):

Getting ready to go to church:

Not quite ready to go:

Ready!

We've taken a break with solid foods, but here we are in the hay days:

Kristina with the sling, which Edith has started liking again:

She did really well the first couple of days, and then decided that she had had enough:

She never did get around to chopping that cabbage:

This was the one day we let her do her own hair:

CUTE!

Also, Edith can read now...well...not quite, but pretty close:

Bouncing Baby

We're really sorry for the lack of updates. Some more will come tonight. You will be happy you waited, though, once you see the cutest video in the history of cute videos. This little baby is growing pretty quickly:

Finland

Vi har den stora glädjen att meddela att vi har köpt biljetter till Finland! Den 24 maj åker vi, och vi stannar där till den 19 juni. Vi är så glada över att ha möjligheten att åka dit innan det blir dags för Weslie att börja jobba, och vi ser verkligen fram emot att få träffa familj, släkt och vänner igen. 

We have been hoping to be able to go to Finland before we move and Weslie starts his call, and a couple of days ago we finally bought the tickets. We are so excited - can't wait to see everybody over there and for them to see Edith. May 24th - June 19th are the dates for the trip. 

Fyra månader

Ett tillägg till föregående uppdatering: Vid fyra månaders ålder väger Edith 7,7 kg och är 66 cm lång, vilket är överst på kurvan för både vikt och längd. Inte någon lite baby längre alltså...

An addition to previous post: we had a doctor's appointment last Friday too. Edith is "growing like a champ". She is now 17 lb and 26 in (!) - 98 % for weight and 96 % for height. Our baby is no longer tall and skinny like she was when she was newborn. Still tall, but definitely not skinny :). 

Edith - Four Months Old

On Friday, Edith turned four months old. We celebrated a little late yesterday by giving her her first taste of "solid" food. She did pretty ok, and today she took even more:

She's still a pretty cute little girl. Thanks for the dress Aunt Misti and Uncle David!

Giggles

Edith is now talking (a lot), squeeling, screaming and giggling. She only giggles like this with pappa though, I'm clearly not as much fun. 

Edith har verkligen upptäckt sin röst numera. Hon pratar, ropar högt och fnittrar, men det sista bara med pappa.
