24 Weeks Old and a bit of nostalgia

Beansie update: she's back to normal! We have no idea what happened a week ago with her leg, but the pain and inflammation pills seem to have done the trick. Maybe she just injured something and it has gotten better; let's hope so. We're all relieved, and she's definitely back up to her old tricks.

Camilla is 24 weeks old today!  I remember being 24 weeks pregnant and feeling like it was such a milestone being a good 4 weeks past the halfway point.  After all the weird first trimester stuff, the second trimester was heavenly.  I felt great, and it stayed that way pretty much up until the last month of pregnancy when I was a puffy, sweaty mess. :)  Anyway, this is me around 24 weeks pregnant; hard to believe it's our little Millie in there...

Exactly a year ago, we had just gotten back from our fabulous trip to France.  Millie was only peanut-size, and she had already gone overseas.  When will that be possible again?!  Since we can't make it ten minutes in the car without a meltdown, we're guessing it might be awhile. :)  A few favorites from the trip:

 

Sigh...those French know what they are doing with pastry.  Speaking of food, we started Millie on fruits and vegetables this week in addition to her oatmeal.  First up was avocado (technically a fruit), and she has loved it so far.  She's still moaning a fair amount and reaching for the spoon, which is a good sign.  We have to wait a few days before introducing another new food, so I'm baking some sweet potatoes today and those will be her next food to try.  It's so exciting trying out all the new foods; I hope she continues to be so easy going with this food business.

Only a few more days until Christmas!
