the striped shirt

Just realized i have so many pictures of quentin in this same shirt. note to self: Q could use a new good shirt for photos...

LILLY

I've admitted to Lilly that she's not on this blog nearly enough. However, to my credit, I didn't have a blog when she was a baby. Instead I have a drawer full of baby pictures. Anyway, one reason her pictures don't always make it on here is that she's always posing. She can't just be natural and let me get a good picture. She has to be making a face or demonstrating how to eat a strawberry (yeah, I didn't post that one) or in this case, pointing. This one turned out pretty cool though. She's incredibly photogenic. She just needs to stop trying so hard. What can she do - she's a dramatic girl. No clue where she gets that.

Quentin loves his sister. He lights up when she walks in the room. He laughs when she talks to him. He thinks she is so entertaining and interesting. They're going to be great friends. Here, Lilly was keeping Quentin company by playing her DS on the floor with him. Note, that he's sitting up! Another milestone met...

Oh, sweet...

Quentin loves his sister...

He wants to play the DS too.

bathtime... 7 months later

I finally found Quentin a new bath seat that he can sit up in while in the tub. He's always enjoyed a bath but he's never really been able to play in the water because the baby tub was so small (and he is so big). So now we have this new bath seat contraption. It's size is a little unruly, but it works pretty good. He never wants to get in it but then he likes it. He's learning to splash and bounce around. Lilly got in her swimsuit last night and got in the tub with him. I warned her that he'd probably pee in the water, but she said it was worth it. I don't know if it happened or not... :)

Gotta teach 'em early not to freak out about water on their head.

See, he's fine.

Quentin: "Stop kissing me all the time!"

Such cute kids!
