How did Charlotte get so smart?

We have fully ventured into the land of baby food now! So far, green beans and peas are yucky and carrots and bananas are yummy. She has eaten all of them though, even when she isn't a big fan.

The princess and the peas... okay, so it's really green beans.

Also this week, Charlotte put on her stripey green outfit and I introduced her to Steve for the first time. :) I have had this Steve doll (from Blues Clues) for at least 7 years now. He was originally a birthday gift from my BYU roomies (there's a story there, but I'm not getting into it.) Anyway, he has spent a lot of time sitting in closets, and being tossed in boxes over the years, so he was really happy to have Charlotte to play with now. After all this time, he still talks and he had some very nice things to say to our Peanut...

"You are such a great friend."
