Big Girl Chair

Zara has graduated to a high chair with no safety rail. Go Z. Also, nice peek-a-boo! Hello, So-Cute!

Gone Fishin'

If someone has any lures for Zara's hat, we'd be grateful. A fishing pole might also be helpful, to complete the ensemble.

Marmee

Maryann came to visit, she & Z had a lovely time.

Nine Months

Officially longer outside than in. 17 lb. 12 oz. 28". FWIW, we did not let her throw the Dell on the floor. Though she wanted to. Which is a mark of good taste.

Rice

Following Granny Phipps' advice, Zara is slowly transitioning from food-as-a-hobby to three-squares-a-day. Here we see an experiment in self-feeding rice.

Spinach

Feeling much better today. And, yes, that's spinach on her chin!

Sick Baby

Poor baby. 103F fever. And we postponed our trip to Florida.

Lessons

Jo teaches Z to play penny whistle.

Limp (Teething) Bizkit

I guess I'm not the first to make this joke, but this is Z's first teething biscuit (barley).

Nikki Comes to Visit

Here are Z & N (about 90 degrees different) having fun together.

More Teeth

Check out the bottom chompers on Z. You may need to look closely.
