Ingrid 5 and 6 months

Ingrid has had a very busy couple of months.  A few exciting milestones have been met!  Although we totally skipped over the rolling over milestone.  Hmmm, I guess she'll figure it out eventually! At the end of January she was able to sit pretty well with a boppy pillow behind her.  She also started solid foods this month.  We started with rice cereal and squash.  We have since cut out rice cereal (diaper rash culprit?) and introduced peas, green beans, sweet potatoes, bananas, prunes, and oatmeal!  She pretty much loves it all.  She leans forward toward the spoon if I don't get it to her mouth fast enough.

Ingrid is now 6 1/2 months old.  On February 1st she got her first tooth!  She was just a few days over 6 months.  Less than a week later her second one popped through!  She looks so cute smiling with her little white teeth.  On January 29th Ingrid had her 6 month appointment.  She weighted 17 lbs 14 oz and was 27 1/2 inches long.  In the last few weeks she's been sitting up on her own.  I set her next to a basket of toys and she keeps busy pulling them out one by one.  On February 8th Ingrid started saying "dadada," don't they always say dad first!  And on the 17th she was trying to clap.  I had been clapping for her and she was smiling and watching.  A little while later she was clapping her two fists together.  Such a smarty!

 Ingrid is a really happy baby.  She sleeps really good at night.  Ready for bed by 8:00 pm and I usually go in there once or twice to pop a binky back in and then she sleeps til about 7:30 or so.  Napping during the day is a little trickier.  Still working on that!

Ingrid's hair is quite a bit darker than the others kids hair.  It'll be cool to see what it turns out like.  Our family has really enjoyed having her :)  Lane says things like "she is the funniest baby I've ever seen!" Love it!

The Happiest Place On Earth

Finally I'm posting our Disneyland pictures, it was a little overwhelming because I have so many pictures!  And I didn't realize I only got like one of Reese.  Estelle got to meet lots of princesses.  We've never done that so it was really exciting for her!

 Ingrid and I even got in a couple them.

 Lane and Estelle in the forest adventure area.  Can't remember the name.  It's a fun place for the kids to fun around and it was right next to our hotel.

 My sweet pea Ingrid and I, she did so good.  Really easy going most of the time.

 Kristen and girls met us a couple times because they live so close by.  It was great to see them and for them to meet Ingrid!

 Kyle and Leah's family met us for a half day as well.   I am so excited for all of our girls to grow up together!

 Watching the World of Color show.  I love that show!

 The last day Estelle had a Elsa makeover in the Anna and Elsa Boutique.

 Gorgeous!  And then we went straight over to meet Anna and Elsa!  They were so fun and talked to Estelle a lot.  She was loving it!

 Me and the kids on the Cars ride.  I love that one.

Lane, Ingrid and I on the carousel.  He was pretty pumped about it ;)

Our trip was fun and much needed.  Disneyland might really be the happiest place on earth.  Our family loves it there.  Lots of great memories were made, and Estelle was at such a great age for it.  It's really magical for her!  Lane loves all the big rides and Reese takes him on all those while I take the girls to princess stuff.  It works out well.
