10/6/05:  Our last update for the month!  We have Lauren strengthening her legs, being interrupted by the camera when bonding with her friend Clara, enjoying a nice fall walk (look at the beautiful tree in the background!), being soothed by her thumb, and showing off her new trick called "the airplane".  Five months down ... wow ...

 

 

9/26/05:  Moving right along in her fifth month of life, Lauren Grace continues to steal our hearts and bring such joy to our lives.  There are a few more pictures than normal this time, but we have had a busy and fun-filled few weeks!  Please enjoy them and check out the text Update as well! 

 

Getting aquainted with her new caterpiller toy.

Although she doesn't eat in the highchair yet, we like to have her join us during our meals.

All bundled up for a nice walk by the river with Courtney and Mom.

Enjoying the nice present and excellent company that Courtney brought to Washington.

This is when our pastor held Lauren up to present her to the congregation - very cute. More about this dedication in the Updates section.

Lauren looks out at her church as everyone in the building prays for her.

A nice family shot!

She just started raising her hand as she enjoys her meal - we're not sure why, but we go with it.

A break from our Seattle walk to feed Lauren.

Not only is she enjoying Seattle, but this is the first time that she is sitting in her stroller without her carseat attached.

Just for fun!

Mommy's blessings.

She now enjoys grabbing for objects above her when she is on her tummy.

Maia and Taia saying hello to Lauren after four months apart.

Time to cuddle!

Checking out her Taia while waiting to leave for church.

Being loved and kept warm by her grandparents at church.

Enjoying her Maia.

This is the life ... she is quite relaxed!

Talking with Taia.

Time to say goodbye - for now!

 

9/16/05: Lauren has her first little cold right now, so we are trying to take things easy so she can rest and heal.  We've also just started to work on getting her to fall asleep without using a pacifier.  It's not easy for her, but she is working hard!  A couple of her little bears are helping her out :).  Here are a few pictures of our little sweetheart.  The top row shows off her new increasing flexibility, her first Romanian outfit, and her first raincoat.  The bottom is a "Daddy & Me" row - helping mom to wake Dad up, being read to and fed by her favorite man in the world, and a time of cuddling that led to a time of snoozing.
