Serafina is 4 months old!!

A rare chance for a 'photo shoot' in July ~ Madeleine actually slept in for her nap, so Serafina & I had an hour to ourselves. Gave her a baby massage (like I used to do with Madeleine before she started running all around), then I took some pictures of just Serafina. :)


As you can see, Serafina's really strong/good at holding up her head & upper body.
And very interested in her hands & holding/grabbing things now.




Thank you again, Sarah, for this cute top! She's a belly baby, so it works out well (in addition to being so cute!).



Just can't get enough of these adorable hats. =)

Thank you Aunt Wendy for ANOTHER FABULOUS visit!

so happy with Aunt Wendy! :) love the gummy smiles.

it's funny: Serafina usually doesn't tolerate being held by anyone other than Sharkey or me, but she LOVED being held by Wendy and even sat happily with Wendy during her 'fussy time' (3:30-4:30)!!!



trying to get everyone (madeleine!) to smile for a phone photo for Mimi (their grandmother)

Wendy doing "Siamese Niece" with Serafina. =)

Thank you, Aunt Wendy, for visiting!!! :)

(not sure what's going on with the 'Glamour Shots' white cloud at the bottom of the photo...)

July

Sisters :)

note: Serafina is wearing the hat Grandmom Sharkey made her ~ so cute :)
Always watching Madeleine on the go!

Big Sister reading to Little Sister :)
Serafina was playing with her giraffes, and Madeleine was reading. Then, Madeleine decided Serafina would enoy the story. too. So she put the book ON Serafina & read her the story. :)


Seems the obligatory photo ~ Eating Pet's Food



One good turn deserves another ~ sharing her food with Bobby!


And with Serafina, too!


LOL, love this 'Sharkey' look of Serafina's!! (smart kid)
