Kara's 6 month appointment


We took Kara to see Dr. Joe for her 6 month well-baby visit yesterday (6/18). She is 24 inches long and weighs 13 lbs 12 oz! She also got four more shots, and hasn't had much of a reaction to them, except for being more sleepy. All in all, it was a good visit and Kara is pretty healthy!

Why the sad face??



Of course we had to include Kara in our family tradition of watching American Idol together, and tonight was the beginning of season 7. We discovered that Kara has an eye and an ear (especially) for talent! As we watched the auditions taking place in Philadelphia, Kara had very immediate reactions to certain people that performed on the show. The three of us noticed that it wasn't isolated, because Kara started fussing and began to cry softly at ALL of the bad performances!! We just had to take a picture of the faces she was making. If you watched the show...you know exactly who Kara didn't like! :-)

Kara is 6 months old!!




Our sweet baby is exactly six months old today! It's amazing to think that Kara has been a part of our family for 1/2 a year, because it seems like she has always been with us--and we can't imagine life without her! The puppy in the pictures is one of her new favorite toys that she received from her sister for Christmas. Kara absolutely loves it, and gets so excited every time we put the puppy close to her so she can play with it! Kara is also chewing on just about anything she can get into her mouth. In one of the pictures she is chewing on a toy on one of her activity gyms. One of these days, she might actually have a tooth come in!
