Researching my family history is something that I have always wanted to do, but I have never taken the time to do it. Well last weekend I started doing it because I really want Zoe to know who her family is and where she came from. I'm also curious to see just how far back I can go. In certain family lines I have (I believe) identified 5th great grandparents, which is just crazy. Once I have a good, solid base of information, I'll post something here for all to see. If you have any information about someone related to Zoe, please don't hesitate to share it with me. I can use all the help I can get.
Since I don't have any pictures from the family tree at this time, here are some that Cheryl took of Zoe in front of her mirror.
We started setting up some new things for Zoe. One was a new jump-a-roo, which she really isn't big enough for yet. We have to put a blanket in the back to keep her from slumping over and place a large graphic novel (The Walking Dead Volume 1) under her feet so she can actually bounce. The other thing we finally decided to give a try is her high chair. She is still a little small for it, but it should work out pretty well to keep her upright and possibly playing with some toys. Here are a few pictures of each.
Yes, that is a doll that she's eating in her high chair. I really don't know where she gets that from.
The last thing I wanted to share was about Zoe's bedtime routine. Just before she is laid in her crib, I sign her a few verses of We'll Meet Again. The other night Cheryl and I both sung it to her and she smiled at both of us. Probably because we make such a lovely duet. Well tonight Cheryl had to sing to her because I was at a roller derby bout during bedtime and she said that Zoe was looking over her shoulder, apparently trying to see where I was because she knew I wasn't singing. I'm not sure if that's true, but if it is, it is one of the sweetest things I've ever heard.
Tomorrow Zoe turns 4 months old, so as long as the weather cooperates, expect another post with more pictures.
