Cereal

Peja seemed interested and ready to eat so just before she was 6 months old, we broke out the rice cereal.  The girl starting eating on Day 1 and hasn't looked back since! 

Not sure how much made it in on our first attempt here, but she was pretty satisfied with the whole event.  

Brother & Sister

Peja loves being around Tate.  She's so intrigued by everything he does and how fast he moves!  As is obvious by this series of pictures I tried to take.  I'm sure there will be many more coordinating outfits in their future!  

"Where did Tate go?" Peja asks

4th of July

It was very mellow at our house over the 4th of July.  With travels to Denver and then New York for work, we were all happy to just have an extra day to be together and play.  

Getting into the holiday spirit!

Yum!

Too tuckered out to make it to dinner time.

Not quite red, white, and blue but still All-American!

Mormor and Me

We love it when Mormor comes to visit.  This visit was from June when she stopped through on the way to and from Denver.  Tate loves it because Mormor is his favorite playmate to play coffee shop with and I love it because it's always great to have extra help with the little monkeys!  

Denver

Mormor, Peja and I flew to Denver to visit Great-Grandma for her 97th birthday.  We had a great trip and Peja was a trooper through all the travel and the heat.  We stayed with Don and Kathy in Golden on Friday night and went for a great walk along the river Saturday morning. We lucked out on a great hotel deal Saturday night that was near Grandma's place. Of course it was near a mall so we found a few free minutes to do some shopping since it was a girls trip after all!

Hard to get a good one of all of us at once!

5 Months Old

Peja was 5 months old in June. She's such a happy and mellow baby.  Cooing and laughing all the time. 

Happy Birthday Daddy

Grandma and Grandpa Skinner came for Memorial Day weekend.  We played, celebrated Daddy's birthday, and worked on plumbing in the basement.
