Oh pictures, where art thou?
MISSING:
Infant. Named Gwen. All I have is this toddler …
And I’m not sure where she came from …
I know, I know. It’s been a LOOOOOONG time since I’ve gotten to update you all on Gwen via pictures. Since the beginning of July, actually! I totally lost my camera cord and couldn’t even find the memory card/USB reader we bought a couple of years ago so I could NOT get my pictures off my camera! But, thankfully, I found both the card reader AND the camera cord and now we’re up and running again. I figured I’d shoot some pics up here and show you how much she’s grown in the past month!
Gwen …
Enjoys helping daddy put stuff together!
Thinks alpacas are hilarious
Has fantastic musical taste (that’s U2’s No Line On The Horizon)
Thinks Uncle Dave is TONNES of fun
Enjoys climbing on unsuspecting parents
LOVES playing in the water!
Got a new haircut (yes, I made it straighter!)
Looks like SUCH a big girl playing with the laundry
Has perfected walking and thinks daddy is the coolest thing EVER! 
My baby girl is 14 months old. She walks, she talks (well, a few words anyhow), and she’s now working on her first four molars (At once! It’s fun!). I feel like time is slipping quietly away and in the time it takes me to blink, she’s learned a new skill and mastered it (Like getting on the couch. And then running on it. There are lots of tears over ‘Gwen, sit on your bum please!’ at our house right now!). Today, I took a page out of Laura’s book and dragged a chair into the kitchen to let Gwen see what I was doing to prepare dinner. She thought it was the BEST THING EVER and proudly hung onto the wax bean that I gave her for dear life while she watched in awe at what I was doing. She even put it in the pot and helped clean up some of the beans into the green bin.
Can someone please tell me where this child came from? Somehow I don’t think I’ll get to see my infant Gwen again …

Your little infant will grow to be one of your best friends
And soon you will have another infant … congrats!
