Nine Months

This is a continuation of the pictures I’m taking of Twig on her month-day. Past months: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven (eight skipped because a sad broken camera).

Yay! My camera is back! $175 later, the sensor is fixed. Thank goodness for budgeting because what is a difficult month with that extra expensive would have turned into horrific if I didn’t have the separate categories and know exactly how much I could manage to take from each this month. I got back my camera right in time for Twig’s month day! So we’re back with our monthly photos.

Waiting for Music Together to start.

 

 

Peanut writes her name on her tag by herself every time.

 

Plug covers are great!

 

 

This is her “I hear a noise, what is it?” face.

 

Look at those eyes! So hazel!

 

 

Ever since I put ties on her soakers, she thinks they are for her to eat and unties them immediately.

 

 

Big alligator tears!

 

This is Peanut taking over the camera.

 

She got some good shots, albiet blurry.

 

 

 

On nom nom kitty!

 

Six Months

This is a continuation of the pictures I’m taking of Twig on her month-day. Past months: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Seven.

Yeah, Twig is actually 8 months tomorrow, but we’re back tracking today. As Twig’s six month photos and for a fundraiser for World Breastfeeding Week, we had our photos professionally taken by my friend Timbra. We got a steal of a deal and a good portion of the proceeds went to our local chapter of La Leche League. Generally these mini slots are for breastfeeding photos, which we did get some of, but we took up two of her slots to get family photos done too. And, oh boy, am I happy that we did.

Seven Months

Yep, she’s crawling.

Om nom nom nom.

I got some really great photos of Peanut during the shoot too.

New favorite photo of Peanut.

And, just for funzies, here’s a baby sneeze in slow motion:

 

 

 

Four Months

This is a continuation of the pictures I’m taking of Twig on her month-day. Past months: One, Two, Three.

For how often this child does a superman on the floor, I’m surprised she doesn’t have a six pack.

Making her current favorite noise, which mostly sounds like “bbbbbbbb”

Working on the next milestone: sitting up! She’s getting really good at it!

Everything. Must. Go. In. Mouth. Nom nom nom!

Our Garden

Planting our garden with Mema.

Playing in her sensory box when the gardening got a bit boring.

I think this face is saying “bon appetite!” 

 

We have (from left to right): onions, spinach, red chard, peas, cabbage

more onion, romain lettuce, spring mix, peppers, watermelon

more onion, tomatoes (planted later than this photo), more watermelon

onions, cucumbers, a few types of squash.

Our first bounty.

Three Months

This is a continuation of the monthly pictures I’m taking of Twig on her month-day. Past months: One, Two.

"Oh, hi there."

She's talking in this one.

Egg shakers are yummy.

Nom nom nom sister's hand!

Big sister loves to give little sister kisses.

Little chubby legs love to stand.

Daddy got home at the end of photo taking, so he joined in the fun.

Easter

Peanut finding the baskets. She got an egg shaker from her music class and a few treats I found around the house.

Twig's only new gift was an egg shaker with a handle from music class. She likes to chew it.

Thinking about where to search next.

Yeah, Twig is chewing on Peanut's arm.

Twig loves her big sister.
