25 Weeks!

Dear Jorie,

This week you took your first trip out to Westfield to visit your great-grandmother. You did very well on the trip out there, I think you slept the entire car ride. You were as charming as always during dinner and right up until it was time to go to bed. Then you just. would. not. sleep! Me and your father did not get much sleep on Saturday night!

Your great-grandma Ross was really happy to get some time with you, and really enjoyed holding and playing with you. You seemed to have a good time playing peek-a-boo with her and just sitting in her lap looking cute.

On monday we went to our friend Farley's annual holiday party. You were in rare form, giggling and smiling at all the people. There was a chorus of "Awwww"s that followed us everywhere we went. Our friend Stephen got to meet you for the first time. He was properly in awe of you, although he was very unsure about holding you! I think he was afraid he'd break you.

Last night at the Ross family dinner, we gave you Carrots for the first time. You reacted the same way you did when I fed you sweet potatoes for the first time, you made the "WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?!" face and squished them out of your mouth. But you did eat a couple of spoon fulls, so I'm confident you'll get used to them and learn to love them just like you did with the sweet potatoes. I'm not sure what we'll feed you next, but I'm looking forward to it!

I love you so much baby girl.
