Julia is 5 months old!

Hi, all!

Julia turned five months old this last Thursday. It is amazing how quickly she is changing and growing. Adam and I were looking at pictures from a few months ago, and it's amazing how different she looks... and of course, her personality is developing and she is mentally and physically changing at an alarming rate! WOW!

Here are some newer pictures of her... our cute little girl!

Julia has a few friends...

Omaha!

We traveled to Omaha this weekend to visit with friends... Jill & David, T & Jeff (& kids), and Angela & Dan... we had a great time!

We arrived Friday night just in time for pizza and breadsticks (and for Julia to go to bed). We didn't stay up too late Friday night... just a bit of chattering, a few drinks, and then off to bed.

Saturday we went to the SAC (Strategic Air Command) museum and also went for a drive through a animal habitat on a 'safari'. It was really neat to see animals like buffalo and pronghorn, which we don't see much 'round these parts.

Last night, then, we went to Dundee Dell, a restaurant Adam suggested for dinner, for good fish & chips and beer. Then after a quick stop at Beertopia (just me, Adam, and Julia), we celebrated Jeff's birthday a few days late with a Black Forest and Bailey's Irish cakes... YUM!

We had a wonderful time with our friends this weekend, and thanks to a great nap by Julia, we made good time getting home today.

Here are some pictures from our weekend.

Waking up in Omaha... (apparently, when you sleep in Omaha, you must turn your body 90 degrees while you sleep... at least, that is what Julia seems to think... this is the THIRD time I caught her stuck in her pack and play sideways during the night... one of those times I HAD to take a picture...)

New Pictures... Sort Of

Hi, all!

It's been a few weeks since I have posted. These are some pictures of Julia, a couple weeks old. She is still very much a cutie!

Julia turned 4 mos on March 24. She has started on single grain oatmeal, and loves it. She isn't rolling over yet, but we're not worried... she seems content to hang out as is and I don't mind that she's not rolling across the floor yet. She loves to stand (put weight on her legs) and she tries constantly to sit. And... tonight she thought she should sleep withOUT her swaddle... that lastest for about 8 minutes before her hands on her face woke her up good. It's fun to continue to watch her grow and change and it's weird to think that she will be 5 mos old in 11 days already.... WOW!

Mmm... OATMEAL!
