A very special half-birthday present for Carrigan...

Daniel Edward Kurth was born yesterday, making him exactly six months younger than Carrigan. He was 6 lbs. 11 oz., 19″ long, and perfectly healthy, although there were many concerns about him throughout Karianne's pregnancy. We are so happy for Team Kurth!
In future news, Carrigan and Daniel, along with Brinnly & Jonah Kurth, will be married in a double wedding around the year 2035. Most likely at First Trinity Lutheran Church, in Pittsburgh, PA. Their older sisters, Amalia, & Kaeta will be co-matrons of honor. Pierogis will be served. Formal invitation to follow.

Six months old

All right...who stole our newborn and replaced her with THIS huge child?
Check out those cheeks! It must be from all that spinach she's been eating. And carrots. And applesauce. And sweet potatoes. I could go on. She's at a fun age of interacting even more with her sisters and dancing to music. So far, she can only roll from tummy to back, but she's working on mastering the other way too. Crawling will be here before we know it!

Christmas Round 3

Yes, I know we skipped Christmas Round 2, but the pictures from that event are still on my parents' camera. Instead, here's what it looked like in our house when two big boxes from our Aunt Pam arrived:

She's rolling!

One guess who's been rolling over since last week. That's right, our chubby little cutie! That is, she's rolling whenever she takes a break from devouring her solid foods. Current favorites--green beans and banana-rice cereal.
