Shirt-hat

Luke hated when I did this to him, but Jane is totally game. When I was younger I used to wear my shirts on my head like hats, too - this is so my girl.

She found her foot!

Not even four months old and she's got her first taste of foot. She LOVES it. Her favorite thing to do these days is hold both of her feet , on in each hand, and munch on them one at a time - left, right, left, right.

Is an almost four month old supposed to be able to have a pigtail?

Probably not. I immediately took this out after I took the photo since I worry that it's too soon to subject Jane to "hair-dos". As Matt says, we need to let her crazy hair be free!

Hands

Grandpa takes Luke to school most mornings these days - such a HUGE help as I try to get back into the swing of things at work. One morning he was holding Jane as I scrambled about getting Luke ready for school and noted how her hand was laying so sweetly on his. I went to grab the camera and Luke decided to jump in on the action. Such a ham. How nice of Jane to humor him.

Post-bath chair time

Little Jane is holding her head up so well these days! We've got her kickin' it in her chair whenever we can - she LOOOOVES to sit up. And shove everything in her mouth. Could she be teething already???

On our way to school

Now that Jane is busting out of her 3 month clothes, I'm trying to get pictures of my favorites before I retire them. I tried to get a quick shot of Jane in her rocking chair...but big brother Luke just can't pass up the chance to join in. This kid loves the camera these days. Jane? Well, she tolerates it for now.

Getting ready for school

This is 50 times harder with two kids! I had to document how I'm managing this in the mornings: Luke is scarfing down waffles while watching Tom and Jerry, while Jane is hanging out in her car seat, which doubles as an awesome play chair. This gives me a good 15 mins to clean up and get ready for the nanny to come over OR pack Jane's bag for a trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house. Maybe I should just get up earlier...
