MY LITTLE CUPCAKE

My dear Aunt Susie made this hat for Caroline. It is so adorable! One of the other families that I traveled to Kyrgyzstan with received one for their daughter Mia and I saw a picture and asked my Aunt Susie if she could make one for Caroline. She did an amazing job on it and it is so cute.

Enjoy the pictures.

Suze,

You should go into business - especially there in Minnesota where kids need warm hats all winter long. Our opportunity to wear it in Arizona may be limited but we are going to KC in 3 weeks and she will certainly wear it there.

LOOK AT MY 2 TEETH

Pictures taken this morning. Great shots of her two new bottom teeth. They are sharp little things. She isn't really biting which is a good thing but when I put my fingers in her mouth to feel for others she bites down.

9 MONTHS OLD TODAY

Aunt Amy is so funny (sorry, don't know how to rotate the pic)

Caroline had her 9 month check up today - Grandpa went with us to the doctor. She checked out perfect (which I already knew). 28" long and 18.3 pounds. I actually thought she would weigh more than that - she loves to eat and is getting a belly like her Grandpa's. She had to have 4 shots which none of us were prepared for but she did fine - stopped crying as soon as mommy picked her up.

We are doing great. She has her 2 bottom front teeth and I think more are coming soon. She is the happiest baby I have ever seen. The love in this house is incredible.

Can't wait for everyone to meet her in May at Amy's wedding.

Love to all!
