Halloween

Brenna's first Halloween!  She could really care less, of course, but it's fun to watch her reactions  to the big pumpkins (great things to pull herself up on) and the small ones (great to put in your mouth). 

Since she doesn't understand, we decided (I decided) to not carve pumpkins, but to paint them and decorate with tacks.  The ones I had found on Pinterest were all silver, which looked really nice, but we had brass tacks, so that's what we used.

 

She looks so pouty!!!  We were having a good time, but she gets nervous whenever the camera comes out and starts sucking her lip.  Such a serious face!!

 

With her very own pumpkin!

8 months

Ahhhh, where does the time go? 

 

 

Miss B is doing so much now!  She is crawling, just started pulling herself into a standing position, eating cheerios, drinking out of a sippy cup, clapping her hands and waving hi and bye!  Oh and she just cut her top 2 teeth!  Whew!  It's been a busy month :) 

 

It's been fun to watch her develop and play with her toys differently.  She's really into looking at books and turning the pages.  She likes to stand at her play table and even bops a little when she hears music.  It's so cute!

 She's really trying to get into everything, luckily she's not very coordinated yet :)  She can't get up the step, and I'm not really sure that she even knows that she's suppose to want to yet. 

 

She's very ticklish and really giggles when you get to her neck (like her mama).  She doesn't use a pacifier anymore and doesn't suck her thumb, although she does put her fist up to her mouth and makes sucking motions.  Kinda funny.  She LOVES to scream.  Good lord....she's not mad, not trying to get attention, just loves to hear her own voice.  Maybe she'll be a singer?

7 months

So, it's been awhile.....But now that we've moved, I found my camera and have my computer set up, I can start the blogging again!  Here is the Bean with her 7 month pictures.  We couldn't believe how much she's really grown and chunked out!  I guess being in shorts and onesies all summer I didn't realize what a 'curvy' girl she became!  We put her in some 9month clothes when the weather started to get a little cooler....and boy where they tight!!  Only around her little tush and thighs, though.  I'm thinking we're in the middle of a growth spurt (apparently she grows out, then UP!)

 

She is a squirmy little worm, always on the move!  She tries SO HARD to sit and crawl and really get around.  She does get around, but just not as fast as she'd like. 

 

She had a great month developmentally, getting the hang of the sippy cup, crawling, even anticipating some fun songs like 'patty cake'

 

Above all else she likes to eat and drink.  There is not question the way to my baby's heart is through her stomach!
