Margery is Four Months Old, and More Adventures

Hard to believe this little pistol is four months old. She is so busy taking the world in. Her favorite things this month are staring at the Christmas Tree, making raspberries with her lips and smiling at her big sister. Here's some recent photos of Margery and her big sister.
Sweet little angel has a great firm grip. Just keep your hair out of the way.

Evangeline loves being a big sister more and more each day.

At her appointment Margery was 25 inches long and weighed 15.5 lbs. She's growing strong and looking cute :)

A Little Bit of Summer in the Autumn

In November Margery and I went on a trip to Los Angeles to see my friend Samantha and my Cousin Rachel and her family. It was a great break after taking my comprehensive exams in September and having a baby.

We had a great time. Here are some photos from our trip. Margery is a great little traveler.  Looking forward to more adventures with this little miss.

Excellent breakfast in LA with my Cousin and her daughter.

An awesomely large pancake with ricotta cheese in it, and maple syrup of course.

Sweet little brunch date.
 We had breakfast and brunch a lot, because that is my favorite meal. Rachel took me to brunch at BLD-Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and Samantha and Blake took me to Duke's in Malibu. I also had breakfast in Sherman Oaks at a great little place called Crave, and enjoyed the plethora of coffee and smoothie joints while visiting.
Margery and Owen really enjoyed each other. He is so great with babies.

Evangeline turns 3 (Part 2): Super Heroes!




For Evangeline's birthday we had a great party at Stephen's Lake Park, which is one of the big parks here in CoMo. We invited friends and family to come and celebrate with us. The kiddos had an excellent time as did the parents. It was a wonderful celebration of our Little Miss P.
