Annabelle 7 Months Old

• You love to sit in the office and play on the keyboard while Mommy is on the computer

• When you want something now you open and close your little hands really fast over and over again, it's like you are saying "more, more, MORE!" 

• You think it's funny when Mommy talks in a low voice

• You still love to sing with Daddy and Mommy and when we look at your face it seems like you are trying so hard to actually sing all the right words

• When you are sitting or laying down you always rub your feet together really fast

• You still haven't mastered crawling yet but you are rolling all over the place and I can't keep track of you

• You do very well at sitting up on your own now and hardly ever fall over anymore

• You love to splash in the water at bath time

• You think it's fun to play peek-a-boo with Mommy and Daddy

• You laugh so hard when Mom and Dad pop out of random places and make weird noises (anything to make our princess laugh!!)

• One of your most favorite things to suck on is your Vitamin D bottle, you love the top rubber part because it's so squishy and easy for you to drool all over 

• You are taking more of an interest in your toys

• We had to start giving you apply juice and prunes because with all the solids we were feeding you, you started to get a bit "backed up"

• Your favorite food to eat is pears

• You love to suck on my hair and will pull at it any chance that you get

• I love to go and get you in the mornings because you are always on your tummy and looking through the boards of your crib waiting for someone to pick you up

• You love anything that has strings

• You do very well at drinking from a sippie cup

• You love to stand up, you will pull on my shirt until I help you stand.  I think you will skip the crawling and surprise us all and just start walking!  You've always been a very solid/sturdy baby

•  You are such a happy baby and everyone always comments on how well behaved you are, you never are fussy unless you want Mama's milk

• You are always waiting for Mom to do something funny so that you can laugh

• Lately we have been putting things on top of your head and you have such a quick reaction to pull them off

• You are very entertained when I let you dig through my purse

• You think it's so funny to suck on your toes when Mommy is changing your diaper

• You are a very smart little girl, you will study and play with something until you can figure out how it opens and closes

• You still like to take your morning naps in our bed

• You still wake up at least once during the night for a feeding, but will randomly surprise us and sleep through the night 

• You like to sing the hymns at church with us

• You are starting to get some rosacea on your cheeks (that was bound to happen so both Dad and I have it)

• You love to eat paper

• You loved to be pushed outside in your pink jet

Snow is falling all around...on the tree tops 

on the ground!  

It snows quite often here in Kingman, but this time it actually stuck for a couple of days!  We drove up to the Hualapai mountains and it was beautiful!!
