Little Pooter Scooter

Anna's been "scooting" lately and today she showed off her skills. This is the farthest she's gone so far. I guess it's time to babyproof!

Recent Pics of Anna

Anna with her cousin Jacie. The girls had a lot of fun splashing in the tub.

 One thing Anna has no problem with is eating. She eats anything! Here she is patiently waiting for her dinner.

Daddy's Little Princess!

 We finally got her the swing she liked so much at Eric and Paige's house. She really likes it!

Look who's holding her own bottle now! She still needs a little help but she gets better and better everyday.

Ok, I couldn't resist! I love pink toenails! 

Jacie

My friend Paige took some pictures of my niece Jacie this weekend. Go check them out here.

Look Who's Talking

Bath Time

 

 

"Nobody puts Baby in a corner!"

When Anna sleeps, she ends up in so many random positions. Last night I walked in to see her crammed in the top of her crib. It made me laugh.

 

FINALLY!!!

Two weeks ago, Anna started saying "da-da". Last night, it was finally my turn. She said "ma-ma"!!! I never imagined how that simple little word could mean so much. Hearing her say it absolutely melts me. I love you baby girl!

7 Months Old

 

Here we are at SEVEN months and little Banana Cakes is growing so fast! Here's what she's been up to...

1. She loves to play in the floor. She can't crawl yet but she's already pushing forward. She rolls everywhere too so we have to keep a close eye on her. She likes to roll under our coffee table and look through the glass.
2. As you can tell from the picture above, she's sleeping great! She goes to bed between 7:30 and 8 and doesn't get up until 7 or 7:30. Her favorite sleeping position is on her belly. As soon as we put her in the crib, she flips to her belly. She's moves a lot in her crib too and most mornings when we go to get her, she's facing the other way!
3. She loves to eat! She eats cereal and fruit in the morning and has veggies and fruit for dinner. There hasn't been one thing that we've put in her mouth that she doesn't like! She'll eat anything!
4. She's "talking" a lot more. She loves to babble, say da-da, grunt and laugh. Still no ma-ma, but trust me, I'm working very hard on that.
5. No teeth yet.

She has been absolutely wonderful and everyone always said that this would be a fun stage, and they're right. We have so much fun with her and I love watching her learn new things. Happy 7 Month Birthday Banana Cakes! We love you!

Go Cubbies!!!

 

Many of you know Kevin is a HUGE Cubs fan, and apparently they're doing really good right now (but I'm not allowed to talk about it because I might jinx them!) Anyway, this is what happens when Anna and Daddy stay home together!

Anna's Art

 

Who needs a Picasso when you've got this! Anna made this at daycare a few months back and they finally sent it home. They had it on their wall and didn't want to part with it, I guess. I don't blame them... look at this masterpiece! :)
