Here we are trying out the back hold with the B'eco. Works pretty well, and it makes laundry a bit easier.
Tamsin has a big girl car seat! Here she is trying it out in the house.


Here she is in the dress Aunt Esther got her... I think for Christmas last year!

Here's before dinner...

And after! I don't know if you can tell, but she has squash mashed into her eyelashes!
And here's a video of her waiting patiently in her chair while I got dinner ready.

Here is the first video from the new camera. Not bad considering how dark it was!

My birthday

I had a fun birthday today with a trip to the park and dinner at the Melting Pot! We took pictures in the park and so I had to post some of the highlights. There are so many cute ones!

I have to explain this one. She has her two bottom front teeth, so she keeps sticking her tongue out to try to figure out what's there.

More milestones... already!

So Tamsin is crawling now, has two teeth, and last night I went into her room and she was standing in her crib! I can't believe how quickly this is happening, and I don't quite know how Mike and I will keep up! We have lots of babyproofing to do.

Tamsin and I went shopping at Babies R Us yesterday and I put her in the cart seat for the first time. She did really well, though she was very quiet the whole time, just looking around and taking it all in.

I'm excited that my birthday present this year is a new digital camera. Mostly I wanted it for the video, since our old one doesn't have sound. I can't wait for it to get here so I can get all of these new things on video!

It's official...

Tamsin is now crawling and about to get two teeth! The bottom two are little white ridges and I'm sure they'll poke through any day now. And she is mobile! She's really good at honing in on whatever is nearby that she can't have and then making a beeline for it. She also enjoys eating her food, especially if I let her hold the spoon. Oh, and banging her spoon on the tray is fun, too.

Fun Weekend!

I don't even know where to start with all the updates for this week! Leah and Joel's baby Evaleigh Miriam was born Friday morning! Tamsin has a cousin! Holly and Gramma are here for the weekend. We're having such a great time, and Tamsin is really enjoying all of the company and attention. She starting to crawl for real now - she actually moves forward! At the same time she's also starting to pull herself up on things (well, on me, mostly). We are in so much trouble. I have a million pictures, so I'll try to post just the highlights. Happy Labor Day weekend!
