Foto Friday and Grammy's Visit

Foto Friday has been a little delayed this weekend because we've had a very special visitor... Grammy! I know, I know, I always seem to have an excuse for why Foto Friday is late. But we've been having lots of fun with Grammy, so I hope you like the photos.

We always love taking pictures of Annabel's bath time fun so that's how we're kicking off this week. And since she's sitting up better (not quite all on her own yet, but we're getting close!), she's enjoying herself too!

First off, we show a very messy Bellie. We typically start her meals so nice and neat. Then it tastes so yummy, it's all downhill from there. But she's so cute, how is this anything but funny?

Bellie's chillin' out in her bath tub. She's obviously having a great time. Look at those cheeks!

Afterwards, Daddy shows off her wild 'do. Now that's what I call a faux-hawk.

Sweet kisses from Daddy.

After her bath, Daddy gives Annabel a baby massage (this is usually Mommy's privilege, but she let Daddy have a go this time).

Ever since starting rice cereal, Annabel has had some... er... "plumbing issues." So we're trying to get more fiber in her diet! This week, she started having oatmeal for breakfast. Here she is trying it out for the first time. As you can see, oatmeal is not any less messy than rice.

Our first big adventure with Grammy this week was a visit to the museum! Grammy is a big fan of all things Egyptian, so the King Tut exhibit was a must-see.

No photography was allowed inside the exhibit, so here's an after-photo. The gift shop!

Grammy and Bellie spend some quality time together.

Annabel introduces Grammy to her red-headed step-sister, Macee. Macee, always the attention whore, sucks up the lovin.

Macee gets her ears rubbed by Grammy and Annabel.

Macee grins at the camera, clearly enjoying all the attention.

Annabel practices sitting up on her own! We're close, but not quite there yet. Grammy's leg makes for an excellent arm rest.

A sweet moment with Grammy and Bellie.

Coming up soon... lots of costumed Halloween fun! We got some great photos today, and we're headed to the Pumpkin Festival at the Arboretum tomorrow with some other parents from our childbirthing class. Babies, babies, babies!

Cheers!
