A Week of Milestones!

Claire turned four months old on July 4th! Where has the time gone?

Annabelle had her 18-month check-up and now weighs in at a whopping 20 pounds 6 ounces, standing at 30 inches. She wanted to go back to the "cah" as soon as we entered the office but after Dr. Hyde gave Raffi a check-up, Annabelle did okay too. No shots, which made it easier.

Claire had cereal for the first time this week! She didn't like rice cereal too much but seems to enjoy the oatmeal. Of course, somehow it's making her hungrier so she eats cereal for dinner and then 10 more ounces of formula before going to bed - and she's still awake at 2:00 a.m. for another 4 or 5 ounces! It's taking its toll on Mommy but we're sure it'll pay off when she goes to her 4-month appointment on Wednesday.

Claire also enjoyed playing in the exersaucer this week - and Annabelle actually let her. She's still a bit unbalanced but both loved playing with the toys.
All in all a very nice week. The whole family slept through fireworks - it was busy! (see above) - but rebounded with a trip to Capron Park Zoo this morning. Annabelle wasn't too impressed and Claire just wanted to sleep but Daddy enjoyed his first trip to the zoo and Mommy and Daddy had fun feeding the llamas, goats and ducks - quack quack...
