A daughter is a bundle of firsts that excite and delight, giggles that come from deep inside and are always contagious, everything wonderful and precious and your love for her knows no bounds.

7 Months

Our little Charlotte Rae is 7 months old today! She has grown so much in the last month and has learned so many things.



She's been practicing eating by herself.......VERY messy! 

We've also been working on using a sippy cup instead of the bottle!

She is such a silly girl!

She fell asleep on our walk with Nana and Mason.


She is SO close to crawling! She can get up, move backwards and starts to move forward, however, she forgets to move her hands and does a face plant! 

Again, sleeping on another walk!

She loves her new stuffed owl.

She has her very own lawn chair for sitting around the campfire this summer!

Trying on her shades and getting ready for summer!

We had some cooler weather after being in the 70s so Grandma LeClair put her in a coat and away they went on a walk! She'll grow into the coat sooner than later.

After their long walk she passed right out!

She always has a smile when playing in her Jenny jump up!!

Playing in her jump-a-roo at Grandma and Grandpa LeClair's.

Grandma Grandt came up for a weekend visit and they bundled up for a walk.

Helping Mommy with the laundry.



She plays all day long in the jump-a-roo at daycare!!

Isaac Alan Gast's Baptism

This past weekend we attended Isaac's baptism. I'm so very excited that Colleen and I have children so close in age. They will not only be cousins, but great friends I'm sure. We are so honored to share the responsibility of being Isaac's Godparents!! It was a great weekend full of family and celebration.




Since the baptism was in Appleton, we stayed at my Dad's in Waupaca. Yesterday was opening trout fishing, so the guys hit the river to fish! Aunt Ricki came to visit Charlotte too!! She adores her Aunt Ricki and loves the time she gets to spend with her.






6 Month Photo Session

The ever amazing Jen Ruby-Durst at Ruby Photography did Charlotte's 6 month photo shoot in April. These are just a few of the great pictures she took! Can't wait to see the rest!
