Gwen's 4 month shots and passport photos!


A serious princess :)
We had the girls' passport photos done this weekend so before we went we had Cara practice not smiling for a photo. It worked and it only took 2 shots to get a good one for her passport.

Gwen was pretty good too. She took a few more shots to get a keeper but not bad for a 4.5 month old!

Cara had a lunch guest this week. Lion joined her and she thought he looked like he needed some spaghetti.

We also made some really awesome play dough this week. It is as good as the real stuff! Cara has been having lots of fun sculpting and cutting out shapes.



Gwen is doing great. She had her 4 month shots on Friday (even though she is 4.5 months). She weighed in at 18lb 2oz and was 24 3/4 inches. She is above the 97th percentile for weight and 50th percentile for length...hence her round appearance :) We love her cuddles! She is rolling over to her tummy all the time now and lifting her head way up now.

Thursday was Daddy's last day of work so we celebrated with pizza and cupcakes! He is off now until end of May and we're very happy to have him home with us (even if it is snowing).

On Friday Cara had a check-up at the dentist. She was awesome. As you can see she laid in the chair and had her teeth polished and poked at. She followed the hygienist's and dentist's instructions and did fantastic. The dentist said she had perfect teeth :)

Daddy and Cara trying out the kid carrier that Daddy borrowed from a co-worker. Once it gets nicer we're going hiking!

Wet snow finally fell so Cara and Daddy attempted a snowman...the snow wasn't quite right yet so it was a snowman-lump. The snow was great today though so look for a pic of our much improved and gorgeous snowman they made today on next week's update!
