Lola


Oh Lola, L-O-L-A, Lola. This little girl is definitely full of spunk. She is always quick to flash you a smile when she knows that she is being naughty or about to do something naughty. She is, for the most part, a very happy baby. There is one BIG exception to her being happy and that is being placed in her car seat. To her, this is complete and utter torture. She will scream from the beginning of the car ride until the bitter end. Needless to say I don't think that we will be taking any long car trips anytime soon.

She is now a little over 11 months old. She is crawling like crazy and pulling herself up on things and walking around them. She has mastered the stairs and is now working on getting down them. She loves cats. If she is crying, I will just put her in front of the cats and she will always (without fail) stop crying. She is still on the Neocate, but we are transitioning her to the less expensive formula. She is an eater as well. She LOVES to eat and will eat just about anything. She looks a lot like Bella, but just a smaller version. She is getting some hair and it is a light brown and she has brown eyes just like her dad and Bella. None of our kids got my green eyes :( and since Rick and I agreed that we like one on one man coverage there won't be any. She has had more than a few ear infections and one more equals tubes. She can be so sweet and is definitely a "mommas girl". She can say momma, dadda, "titty" (kitty :)), and "Lella"(for Bella). She loves to play with Bella and right now her favorite toy is her kitchen. She is always quick to give you a high five and she loves to clap.

I must admit that I have been a slacker with taking pictures and I have made a commitment to myself to start taking more. We are so blessed to have Lola. She definitely has made our lives more fun but challenging at the same time. We sure do love her.
