Sunshine Baby...


Enora has been trying to learn to eat solids, sit well, cut teeth, and crawl all at the same time. At the time of this series of photos, she can eat pureed foods, but much more texture than that and there is usually some gagging involved (just like her sis). Enora is sitting well these days (though I still like something directly behind her just in case). She has two teeth all the way in on the bottom (1st @4mo., 2nd @5mo.), one top tooth just broke through (finally!) a few days ago, and another top tooth just beginning to poke through. Whew, I hope she takes a nice long break after this so we can both get some sleep (and my sunshine baby will be back without so many "my mouth hurts!" stormy spells). ;)






Enora really seems to be days from crawling and getting the last of this set of teeth.  She has been scooting herself around baackwards just like Alannah did.  Although, she seems more irritated by it than Alannah was.  Not sure if that's a temperament thing or if it's just a lack of patience due to teething.  Nothing is quite so exciting in her world as when she sees either Alannah or Cosmo.  Big smiles, babbles/yells of delight, and much flailing are sure to ensue if either comes close.  ;)


Alannah is often busy creating in one way or another: building imaginary creatures with blocos, playing out some wonderful scenario from her imagination, crafting something special for Bill, Enora, myself or a friend, etc.  As usual, she's a busy girl!  ;)

6 Months old!

Oooops!  Thought I published this back in November... I'll have to add photos from halloween in a bit too...picture if you will a T-rex, a baby dragon, and their friend Arwen Evenstar.  ;D

I'm sooo behind on updates and pics I may go on pic only mode as the holidays sweep ever closer. Here is some of the most recent fun... Enora can sit up unassisted (though we still like to surround her on three sides w/pillows or a blanket), she has tried 5 foods (avacado: mixed reviews, sweet potato: clear winner, banana chunks: seems tasty, broccoli tidbits: okay, and apple tidbits: pretty good), Enora loves watching anyone (of any skill level) play the guitar, and rather enjoys giving our piano and anyone listening to her play a pounding.
