Heads, shoulders, knees and toes...

Natalie has begun the toe-grabbing phase. She now entertains herself by grabbing her toes and attempting to get them to her mouth, albeit unsuccessfully. The problem, her legs are too long. Kaija and Josh are enjoying this new phase as well since she concentrates, with a very serious look on her face, really hard on getting those toes in her mouth. We do admire her perseverance. We are also reminded that Darwin's theory of evolution might not be that far-fetched. Natalie is also starting to grab at our lips and nose. While uncomfortable to Josh and Kaija, Natalie is happy, so grab away. Natalie is also getting pretty good at taking her pacifier out and placing it back in her mouth.

We went to a Pumpkin Patch in Great Falls this past weekend for some good photo opportunities. We quickly realized that 4 months is just too early to really enjoy being surrounded by hay and pumpkins and yet be still for the camera. So we decided to snap a few and just enjoy ourselves. Next year should be much more enjoyable when Natalie can get on the hay ride and pick out a pumpkin. Natalie did seem to enjoy some of the animals at the Pumpkin Patch.

Not much else to report, everything is pretty much status quo. Kaija is back to work and Josh is traveling to Denver...again.
