Seven Months

OK, I've caught up.  Abby just ended her seventh month of life and it has been a great one.  Lots of firsts!

Moved to Michigan.

You LOVE to swim in the pool at our condo...You always take great naps when we are done.

You went to the cottage for the first time and swam in Lake Leelanau!

Went to Lake Michigan!

Went to Wares Brothers for the first time.

You went to Walnut Lake Sub 2 and went on the swings.  It is where mommy played when she was a kid.

We started sleep training....It is going much better!  The first two days were pretty rough on mommy though.

You do this funny thing with your hands.  You clasp them together and bang them on your pacifier (which is in your mouth).  Uncle Andy likes to imitate you!

You roll over and scoot all over the carpet.  You are almost ready to crawl.  You are on your hands and knees all the time.  You can move from sitting to being on your hands and knees easily.  You reach for things far away and get them.  You do better at scooting backwards, rather than forwards and sometimes we find you in funny places.

We had your baby dedication at Grandpa and Grandmas.  Yes, this was dedication #2, this time with family.

We got to to back and visit our friends in CO.  We got an awesome baby picture, you cuddled with Corbin during the picture...

You rode in a grocery cart for the first time!

At the cottage!

Your first bowl of rice cereal!

Jumping!

Lake Leelanau with Uncle Russ...He loves you lots!

On an airplane to see our favorite friends in CO!

At Sub 2....Where mommy used to play as a kid!

Aunt Bev sent you a Raggedy Ann doll...Daddy had a Raggedy Andy Doll as a kid.....Aunt Bev made it especially for you.  Mom loves this doll and hopes you love it as much as she does!

Peek-a-boo!

Your dedication outfit!  Nana MADE it for you!  Even the bonnet!

Good-Bye CO :(

Sometimes you end up under the couch when you scoot backwards...
