Tummy Ache

Whew. Poor little lady had a real tough day yesterday. Lot's of crying and pulling her knees up. Must have been something I ate and I feel awful about it. Come to think of it, it was probably the 2 chocolate chip cookies I had yesterday. Bad Mommy.

And BTW, I thought it was difficult eating while pregnant — yeah right. Now it's even more difficult AND more limiting since we are breastfeeding because Charlotte has such a sensitive little tummy. No onions, broccoli, peppers, gorgonzola, prunes, CHOCOLATE...yadda yadda yadda...and the list goes on.

I am making a vow to cut out chocolate (ok, not completely but ALMOST completely). I'm gonna try real hard. I'm sure going to miss it. A lot.

Four Months Old

Hard to believe it has been four months already! Charlotte is doing wonderfully and she and Daddy made a trip to the pediatrician yesterday for her four month check-up. She is now 23.75" long and weighs 14 pounds, 6 ounces. She found her ears the other day and seems a bit stumped by them - not sure why she can't bring them to her mouth so she just holds on to them. And she is babbling up a storm - sometimes it sounds like we have a parrot in the house, other times a cat and sometimes I have no idea what it sounds like but it sure is funny. We also get to start giving her rice cereal! Gotta get the video camera out for this one!

Time Flies

One year ago today (on a Monday morning to be exact) we found out that we were expecting. Hee.

Talking Up A Storm

Boy oh boy. Charlotte sure has found her voice - she has been babbling up a storm tonight! It's great!

Ready To Go

I couldn't resist taking more pics - these are of Charlotte on her way to daycare this morning. What a hoot.

3 Months Old

It's hard to believe that 3 months have gone by already! Charlotte is doing so well - smiling, giggling and really taking everything in! She babbles when you talk to her and loves to see other people smile. Oh?! And, she is starting to grip and grab - gotta wear my hair up now for sure. You will have to excuse me for being completely biased but, boy, she is just absolutely wonderful.

Bronchiolitis

So the little lady woke up on Saturday morning with a major cough and even more congestion than last time. It seriously sounded like she was going to cough up a lung; poor little thing. Our trip to the doctor revealed bronchiolitis and the need for nebulizer breathing treatments every four hours. Charlotte will be just fine, it's just gonna take a little while. The pic above is of the fishy face mask she wears for her treatments; in a way it is actually kinda cute.
