First Solids

Charlotte tried her first solid foods today: applesauce mixed with brown rice cereal. It was a success for the most part, she did a bit of shuddering but seemed to enjoy it. The video is pretty hysterical! 

A Family Visit

The family came to town to hold a memorial for Aunt Sylvia. Charlotte loved seeing her family and sat in her Bumbo while we enjoyed our lunch. Then she had her first trip to Pike Market.

First Snow

The 2012 Snowpocalypse was lots of fun for the Wasses. We were pretty much stranded at home for three days straight! Charlotte was not terribly fond of the snow, but it sure was beautiful.

Welcome to the Jungle

Charlotte loves her jungle play gym. She just goes nuts for it, and it will occupy her for endless amounts of time. As her motor skills have developed, she's gone from staring to swatting to grabbing and finally to chewing her jungle friends.

 

Foot Discovery

Charlotte has recently discovered her feet. This discovery has been made extra exciting by a pair of puppy sock rattles from cousins Julia and Kaya! She loves to sit upright in her Bumbo and stare at them.

Hiccups

Charlotte gets the hiccups, a lot. When we asked the pediatrician about it, she asked us if Charlotte had hiccuped in the womb. "Why, yes, she did, all the time" I answered. "Well, there you go, she's the same baby!" True enough.

Daddy loves to film Charlotte hiccuping. Here is a little compilation of our many, many hiccuping videos.

Food Train

In the weeks right after Charlotte was born, all our good friends brought over food to nourish our new family. We appreciated it so much!! We tried to take pictures of Charlotte meeting her new community- we missed a few but here they are:
