Family Photo

Family Photo - 2007.07.07, originally uploaded by jcohen22.

Well, we tried to snap a family photo this weekend. This is the best we got. Ellie is grinning, B and I are doing our best to keep our plastic smiles glistening, and Gabby is... what is Gabby doing? Pouting?

The Girls at 4 months

I've heard some people say that Ellie looks like Basia, and Gabby looks like me. Other people say, that Ellie looks like a Cohen. Still others swear she looks like a Winiker. I think she resembles her Bobie. And finally, there are those that think they look alike.

Well, here's the question. there they are, side by side, at 4 months. Do they look alike? Do they bear a similarity? What do you think?

More family fun!

Did I mention that "Auntie" Meagan also came down to visit from Boston this week? Gabby's been thoroughly enjoying having an extra Auntie around to spoil her. Yesterday the gang picked Gabby up early from daycare to take her swimming at Uncle Jay's pool! What a treat!

Gabby took swimming lessons at school (really just water acclimation classes at this age) and now really loves being in the pool. So much so that she wanted to jump in on her own, but everyone had to remind her than she could only go in with an adult, so she yelled, "Adult! Adult!" until someone finally took her in!

Four months!

Ellie turned four-months old on Sunday. Here are some pictures to show you what she's up to at four months!

Ellie loves to pull herself up to sitting, and especially to standing, whenever she's given the opporunity...

...and especially if it gives a better opportunity to cram her yummy hand into her little mouth. Eating her hands seems to be her favorite passtime these days:

Ellie with some of the men in her life

This week, Papa came to visit from Boston; therefore, many Aunties and Uncles have taken vacation to spend lots of quality family-time together. This has been a real treat for Gabby, who thrives on all that extra attention, but don't worry, Ellie's been getting her fair share, too. Here, Ellie enjoys some quality time with some of the favorite men in her life.

Uncle Shaun takes his turn playing with Ellie, too:

That's one lucky baby, we've got!!!
