Squash!

Eating squash makes for a messy baby.

But messy babies are cute in the bath :)

And just because it’s fun, this was Ben when he was 3-4 months. They’re not related at all ;-)

From a few months ago, I think Cassidy was 2 months old. Just a typical morning with my little ones.

Cassidy tried food for the first time this week! She was eyeing up my squash one night and I was curious what she’d do with it. She loved it, gobbled it right up. We waited until 6 months to start food with Ben, but Cassidy is definitely a ton more interested than he was. We’ll take it slow since she’s only 4 months, but she’s definitely loving her tastes so far.

I think Cassidy’s hit a growth spurt, she’s been eating all.the.time. She’s also been sleeping a little more sporadically this past week. I hope it’s just a “phase” but she’s been waking up once or twice a night. It’s not really that bad, but coming from her sleeping through a full 12 hours, it makes for a tired momma the next day. Andy doesn’t seem phased ;-)

No teeth yet, although she gnaws on her hands all day long. She’s just starting to reach out and grab things, but it’s pretty jerky and sometimes she misses what she’s aiming for.

She giggles and really babbles now, it’s so cute. She also likes “super baby” – the version where you still hang on to them, not throw them up in the air :)

She sits, with much assistance.

I’m loving the versatility of little girl clothes. After a dress becomes too small it can still be worn as a cute shirt :)

Cassidy’s getting so big, we’ve put her in the baby jumper (she can’t jump yet) and the bumbo seat already. She loves looking around and being right in the middle of daily activities.

Ben continues to have a little sweet spot for her and will bring her toys and books when the mood strikes. I let him hold her for the first time this week and he lit right up. He loves looking at her little fingers, trying to make her smile and petting her hair :)

My heart just bursts!

The Great Pumpkin Party

This year for Halloween Cassidy and Ben were Little Bo Peep and her sheep.

We visited a few neighbors after an early dinner. When they asked Ben what he was he said he was a “sheep costume.” Afterwards we headed to our old church for their Great Pumpkin Party event.

Little sheep waiting to play some games.

Ben’s cotton balls unrolled as the night went on, he started looking a little shaggy.

We were leaving a little cotton ball trail everywhere we went.

A few gratuitous shots of Miss Bo. I am so not into “frilly” but my goodness she was cute in her dress. I can’t believe little girls used to wear outfits like this all the time!
