7 month happenings...

Hey there! Lots is happening in Mikaela's world! She is now a 7 month old with 2 bottom teeth, a growing appetite & love for solids, who babbles story after story to us, who sits like a pro, and has begun crawling! Well, the crawling part might be a little stretch. She did crawl forward (about 3 steps) towards Daddy the other day, but most of the time she gets on her all-fours, rocks back and forth for momentum and then nose dives forward :) She loves to go, go, go!

Her most common phrases are mama and baba. We're working on dada. The other day she was so close with daga... Kevin's heart sank! She still loves to blow her spit bubbles, especially in church :) She is also experimenting with her voice range, which sounds like singing to me :) She is full of smiles, squeals and laughter! What a joy!

It's so weird how she's a little person. I'm amazed by her growth! Not only is she learning how to maneuver around, but when things are out of sight they are definitely not out of mind anymore. Her little brain remembers where the T.V. remotes or cell phones are hidden... and she finds them! It's time to do a more thorough baby-proofing of our home :)

I am VERY thankful for these past 7 months with Mikaela. She has definitely brightened up our home! Her dimpled smile just makes our hearts melt :)

Mikaela is absolutely adorable and looks like a joy to be with everyday! I am so happy that you have her in your life, Laura, to pass on part of your mother's legacy to her. She is blessed to have you as her mommy.
