Mommy may I have a taste of your huevos?

We went to a diner we like called the Cooks Room for breakfast. Normally Lola is indifferent to what we eat but as soon as Maggie started to have her poached egg Lola sat up and was very interested. This is the first time she's eaten anything from one of our plates. It was very fun.

Fiber days at the farm

A sheep enjoying the scent of Lola's fat little feet

A local historic farm had a textile festival today complete with llamas, sheep, cows, bunnies, herding dogs, and lots of arts and crafts made from the yarn of the llamas and sheep. It was a beautiful day, Lola charmed the ladies at the fair with her big smile, tiny teeth, and dimples. Click here for more photos from the farm.

A New Englander at heart

Just when it seemed spring had given over to an early summer here on the east coast, the 80 degree heat has been replaced by crisp, spring days and cooler nights. Since Lola was born in September, she's used to being bundled up for bed in warm clothes, thicker blankets, and of course; the all important hat. Here is Lola sporting some of her cool weather bedtime gear.

But wait, what is that hidden under her blanket, could it be she's hiding her true colors? Oh no, a Red Sox suit!

Baby in the bumbo

Lola has been practicing her sitting, rolling from back to belly, and reaching out with her hands to grasp objects. She really enjoys her new bumbo seat, smiling as she passes her stuffed dog hand to hand and shaking it like a polaroid picture.

Sufferin' succotash!

Lola has always been very verbal, lately she's trying to make new sounds and she makes the funniest faces trying to spit them out. Her eyes scrunch shut, her mouth screws into crazy contortions, and her tongue sticks out, finally resulting in some new exclamation. There's no doubt she'll be a real talker once she gets that whole tongue thing figured out!

Big girl bed


Lola has slept in her bassinet at the base of our bed since she was born. She's finally gotten too big for the bassinet so she made the move into her crib in the nursery. She has a lot more room and has recently started sleeping on her side! Here's a picture of her snoozing with some of her homies.
