Where have these last 7 months gone?

Sometimes I wish we could start all over with Lyla just coming home from the hospital in her lil' bitty newborn clothes, but then I remember getting up with her every 3 hours at night to feed her and suddenly I'm content with her being 7 MONTHS OLD.

A note to Lyla:
Daddy and Mommy enjoy every second we get to spend with you. You define the word 'happiness' for us and we just can't get enough of your sweetness.

Anything new with you?

Always! I think you've finally figured out that the people in the mirror are actually Mommy, Daddy, and you! You are getting your whole torso off the ground and then some but haven't quite got the crawling thing down yet. The words 'dancy, dancy' or music makes you want to rock back and forth. You LOVE putting both of your hands in the air and then slamming them down when we say "BAM, BAM". You're eating all sort of things now including turkey and chicken (baby food or course--no drumsticks yet). You have one toothy on the bottom and one coming in. They caused and are causing you plenty of discomfort : (. Have I mentioned that you've said mama a few times???

I'm posting pictures with Santa because that was right near her 7 month birthday.   She did really well on Santa's lap.  First she stared at him for while like she does and then she decided to smile for the man taking the pictures--no crying :)!!!  I was allowed to take some pictures after they did.  I didn't get a smile from her but I'll post what I got.

Waiting in line:




Santa and Lyla!
