Anna: Seven Months Old!

Anna is seven months old and growing right along!  She is such a happy baby and makes us laugh and smile every minute of every day.  She is so easy going and loves meeting new people!  While she isn't quite crawling yet, I would still classify her as being mobile.  She "swims" on the floor and sort of back up crawls.  I cannot tell you how many times I will lay her on her play gym mat and I turn around for a second, and she's already moved off the mat and onto the hardwood floor - and usually, licking it!  Haha!   As Dave says, they are "good germs!"  Anna can also sit up unassisted for a few minutes at a time - still working on that but she has great neck control.  Speaking of her being mobile - it is harder than ever to get her to hold still to take a picture!  As seen here:

Take # 202 (just kidding!)

We had fun!  I think I need a faster camera!  Haha!  Anyway, Anna is so much fun!  She's my sidekick and we go everywhere together!  

As I mentioned in the last posting, she has graduated to solids - I make all of her food and we have been experimenting with different fruits and veggies.  She loves bananas, apples and pears but doesn't care for squash and peas.  I am going to try carrots next, so we'll see how that goes.  So far, not so good in the veggie department!  

Anna and I are currently working on some decorations for her room - stay tuned for postings on that.  Also, I have the craft-bug and am addicted to a website called Pinterest.  It has so many great ideas for all things but my favorite is crafts and DIY.  Check it out!  I also made her headband she is wearing - so cute and so easy to make!  Happy Fall everyone!
