Family Outing and Leah's First REAL Bath

The first big news is that Leah has blue eyes! She has beautiful big baby blues. They are not the same blue as Grace and my Dad's; they are the same blue as my eyes. So I guess the girls are going to have the blue eyes and the boys will have brown.

Sid took Friday off and we headed to the Museum of Life and Science in Durham. We had weather in the 60's with a threat of rain- that was finally fulfilled right as we were leaving. We had a wonderful time together. Isaac was kind enough to let other children climb on the dinosaur with him.

Grace was just happy to be wearing a dress.

Leah was thrilled to be there.

We volunteered Isaac at feeding time. He was happy to help.

Leah's first train ride.

And now for Leah's first real bath. Her umbilical cord didn't heal correctly- it formed a granuloma. Apparently 1 in 500 babies get them. So we headed to the ped and they used some silver nitrate and it healed in about a week. So she finally got to take a big girl bath- and boy did she love it!

Here she is watching Grace. She loves to watch her big sister.

The whole family wanted to witness the big event.

How beautiful is my blue-eyed girl?!

She was talking and so happy in her bath.

And then we wrapped her up in a great, big, fluffy towel.
