NC trip and highchairs!

Mirah went out of Georgia for the first time last weekend with us on a trek to the Triangle area in NC. Jeff was going for an aikido seminar and I got to visit friends who still live around there and introduce them to Mirah. We also visited with Grandma and Grandpa on the way through Charlotte.
While we were in Raleigh, we went to dinner with a bunch of folks, and Mirah sat in a high chair for the first time. (See bottom photo.) She didn't stay there for long though because it was her bedtime and the restaurant was loud, so Jeff and I ended up taking turns holding her and eating. Considering everything we're lucky she didn't have a complete meltdown!
The other 2 photos are playtime, including a tummy time where she wasn't screaming her head off (yay for being able to hold her head up better!) Mostly her frustration right now is that she can push/throw things far enough away that she then can't get to them again. So she's gettin ready to get up and go--chasing her is imminent!

4 Months!

Mirah was four months old on the 12th, also my dad's birthday, so mom and dad/grandma and granddad were here for a visit and a Christmas in February since work had kept them from making it over till now. Photos on top are Mirah in the cute outfit from Aunt Leigh at the doctor's office (Shot was no fun! :( Too bad it wasn't like last month when she didn't even notice or cry at all!) Photo on bottom has the outfit from grandma, complete with hat and shiny shoes (that I think were still on at that point...)
And she continues to be a biggun--14 lbs 5 oz and 25.5 inches long. She's wearing 3-6 month outfits, but I'm pretty sure at this rate they won't make it till 6 months!
