7 Months and Growing!

I feel like Sarahlynne's 6 month just disappeared into thin air. I can't believe she's on the downward side of turning a year. On her 7 month birthday she cut her first tooth, and the second came shortly after. She's been sick with croup and a sinus infection the majority of her 7th month but continues to be one of the happiest babies on the face of the planet. She's starting to talk (Dada, hi, bye bye and MaMa when she's REALLY mad!). She is a loving sweet baby and seriously makes our house so much happier! Here are some things she loves at 7 months:

*Trying to crawl. Rocking on all fours, and then inevitably going backwards, typically getting her back half stuck under a couch!
*Skyping with family.
*Talking to Grandma on the phone.
*Singing patty cake and then bouncing and squealing "yahhhhh" after each time. Then grabbing my hands to start again.
*Watching Sesame Street's Word on the Street with JoJo.
*Watching Mommy do things in the kitchen.
*Sleeping in her swing.
*When Daddy comes home from work. He always get a squeal, and most notably the last few days, a wave and a "hi Dada!" followed by LOTS of giggles. Girl loves her Daddy.
*Bath time! And playing until ALL the water is gone.
*Eating. Everything and anything!

Here are her 7 month pictures out in her first and last fall for the next few years!
I see those teeth!


She knows the drill.
Love those dimples. <3

Yummy! A leaf!

I love you baby girl. Slow down please. You're growing too fast for this Mommy. I love you much too much.

1/2 Year (A wee bit late!)

So this post is late. Like really late. But, better late than never right? When her six month birthday hit, I seriously could NOT believe it'd been 1/2 a year. It flew by so fast. And I still can't believe how quickly she is growing, and changing and how beautiful she is, inside and out. Such a ray of sunshine. She started eating cereal, sitting up, and blabbering more and more. She wanted to pretend she could crawl, but instead just rolled. Everywhere. She also started waving and signing "All Gone". Here are a few things Sarahlynne loved at six months:

*Jumping. Of any kind. All the time.
*Rolling from one end of the room to another. Then laughing hysterically about it.
*Being tickled.
*Snuggles. Especially with Mommy.
*Going in circles on her circle walker.
*Watching the boys in play in the playroom.
*Eating dinner at the table with the family in her bumbo.
*Sitting up on her own.
*Being outside.
*Layla Belle. Especially when Layla licks her face. She thinks it's hilarious.

Here's a few photos I snapped the day she turned 6 months:


Chuckling at her brothers.
Concerned face.
Got her toenails painted for the first time!
Sweet baby hands.
Mommy, no more photos, please!
Lovin' the bumbo.
Pretty, pretty girl.
<3 Happy baby.

We love you sweet princess. More and more every day. Don't grow so fast. Love you much to much.
