Been a While....

Hello all!

I was looking at a friend's blog, and realized it's been almost a month since I posted on my own. Sorry, folks! Guess when I can't post pictures, my motivation to keep up goes down, too. (Like that play on words?) :) Well, I won't be posting pictures for a while, anyways, since I lost my camera yesterday in the pumpkin patch. A search this morning (while observing beautiful balloons blowing over Corrales) didn't lead to the missing camera, so we did lose all of Zoe's first Balloon Fiesta pictures. :( Sad times! Maybe I'll talk David into buying me a new camera for an early Christmas present! :) lol

Zoe is growing well. She is almost 5 1/2 months old, and weighs 13 lbs. She has started eating baby food - she likes applesauce, peaches, and green beans. Next week, we'll start her on carrots and peas. She "talks" a lot with us, and smiles almost all the time. She doesn't care for time in her playpen; she'd rather be sitting with Mommy or Daddy, and tummy time usually turns into crying time. :( She hasn't rolled over yet, but is getting really close. :) She usually sleeps from 7:00pm until 3:30am, then a quick eat, and goes back to sleep until 6:55am (that's when our sprinklers automatically come on in the backyard). She usually stays awake until around 9:00am, when she takes a 1-2 hour nap (depending on the day). Sometimes she takes a nap in the afternoon, and most days she doesn't. :)

Speaking of a happy baby, she is actually crying her eyes out in her playpen now, so I guess I'd better go get her!

Catch up with you again soon!
