First time in her pool

Anna had fun the first time in her pool. As expected she was surprised by the old water at first but then she really enjoyed it.

Yay, Daddy is fun!Drying off with Mama.

Happy Baby

Grandpa took these last week and I thought they are pretty cute.

First time sitting up alone

Today Anna sat up by herself for the first time. She has been pratictising the last few days but always fell over after a few seconds. So really likes sitting up and playing.

First professional photo shoot

3 weeks ago (so this post is not chronological) one of the playgroup ladies brought her photographer friend to take some pics of the kids in playgroup. These are the results:
Unfortunately Anna wasn't smiling a whole lot...


It was hard to get 9 kids between 4 and 9 months to cooperate for a group picture.

We ended up with 7 out of 9 crying. It was pretty funny.

Yummy, feet!

First bathing suit and first time at Barton Springs

On Friday Anna went to the pool for the first time, sporting her first bathing suit! Well, it's still a bit large so we had a minor wardrobe malfunction...

Barton Springs is a natural spring and is on average 68 F degrees year round (about 20 C), so kind of cold. Anna didn't mind but at this point we only dipped her feet in.
