Guess Who.
Guess Who.



Ready for the answer? Okay, the top picture is Otto at 10 months and the bottom picture is James at 6 months.

Mommy, when's breakfast?

Brotherly Love

Awww! So sweet.

Sitting Up

James started sitting up at 5 1/2 months old. He's so motivated by big brother, Otto. Crawling is just on the horizon.

Swim Lessons

A little back floating,
face in the water,
kicking and
some play time with big brother, Otto, while Otto waits for his own lesson.

James' First Foods

Otto helps feed James his first solid foods, sweet potatoes and peas. James is 5 months and 3 days old. He's an excellent eater as you can tell by the cheeks.

Sleepover with Addy

Addy and Otto exchange Christmas presents. Addy gets a camera and Otto gets...
a police officer role play kit.
He plays the part very well. Watch out! The kit came with hand cuffs.
Hot cocoa and "The Polar Express."
Then bath and bed. The perfect sleepover!

Teething=Teeth

Teething
= Teeth! Yup that's plural for two bottom teeth at the same time. James' first two teeth at 5 1/2 months old. You can't really see them, but they're in there. They finally popped through just after New Year's.
Testing the feeling of those new teeth with his tongue.

The box was just as much fun as the present this year.
