Another Fun Weekend!

October has been a busy month and this weekend was definitely no different. It was a special one though, with a visit from Uncle Howard, Emily's birthday party, and plenty of time with the family! We always look forward to Uncle Howard's visits, so we were excited to hear that he was missing "his girls" and was able to sneak in a visit this month. Claire LOVES spending time with "Unchie Howard" (because he'll do about anything she asks!) and even Kate, the sensitive Momma's girl, went right to him!

Kate has had a big month as well. The 4 month mark has brought lots of new exciting things... she's started eating cereal and baby food (and we haven't found anything she doesn't like), she's rolling all over the place, and she likes playing in her new exersaucer. At her 4 month checkup, she weighted 13 lbs. 13 oz. (50-75%) and was 25 1/2 inches (90%). Claire was 13 lbs. 3 oz. and 25 3/4 inches at the same age... so Kate's still following in her sister's footsteps. Just to look at her, you'd think Kate was much bigger though because of those cheeks! We've decided they're an optical illusion!

Claire was first in line to have her face painted

Butterfly princess!
