Cahill Family Christmas

2009-01-01T19:48:00.003-06:00

We took Caroline back to New York for her second Christmas with Granny and Grandad and all her aunties and uncles. She was great -- on the flights, in the different sleeping environments, during the long car rides upstate to see Aunt Dolly and Uncle Ray. She was a trooper! Also, she had her 15-month appointment at the pediatrician where she clocked in at 29 pounds and 33 inches. Solidly average sized -- for a two-year old!

Happy Halloween

Father's Day

2008-06-18T10:10:00.001-05:00

Unfortunately, no pics from Carl's first Father's Day. It started out with a trip to Children's Hospital first thing Sunday morning after Baby C had been throwing up for 24 hours. Turns out that she has a bad case of the stomach flu. As of today, we're on day 4 of pedialyte and Baby C is hoping to get back to mushy foods and cheerios soon.

On a happier note, Baby C did have her 9-month appointment on June 13 and she was 29.5 inches and 22 pounds: 95th percentile all around.

I'm ready for my closeup!

2008-06-09T10:24:00.002-05:00

Caroline recently had her four-month pediatrician appointment where she weighed in at 14 lbs, 4 oz. and was 25 inches long. She sits up with support and loves to "stand." She also laughs and babbles a lot. We're still working on rolling over and no signs of any teeth yet.

Although she misses all those day trips to Target and hanging out in various coffee shops with her mom over the last few months, she's enjoying her new routine at day care. She's a favorite with the ladies at Guardian Angel Learning Center and her "classmates" include her two friends Gracie and Emmersen, whose mommies are friends with Eileen.
