7 Months Old

Can you believe it?
I am 7 months old!

Bama Baby

In November when Daddy was away at a ballgame, Mommy took me to Michelle Shiflet's photography studio. Mommy took lots of Daddy's Alabama things to the studio so Michelle could take my picture with them. It was hard not to tell Daddy about getting my picture made! We surprised Daddy and gave this picture to him for Christmas.

Hello Feet!

When I wear my pink poodle pajamas that Aunt Lori gave me, I like to wiggle my feet out between the last snap and the footie. I do it every time I wear this pair of pajamas. Mommy says my feet are as cold as popsicles when I wake up in the mornings and they are sticking out! I like to do it anyway. Today when I was playing on my blanket I wiggled my feet out. I saw them sticking up in the air and I finally grabbed onto those wiggly things with my hands. They felt so funny! Daddy says I'll probably be putting them in my mouth soon. That sounds like fun to me!

Dancing!

I love my elephant. Every time it plays music I have to DANCE!

6 Month Check-Up

I went to see Dr. Debi today for my 6 month check-up and shots. I now weigh 14 pounds and 13 ounces. I am 24.4 inches long. Dr. Debi says I am about to get 4 teeth! She could feel them through my gums! She said two of them will come in very soon. I also get to use my new sippy cups to drink juice now! Dr. Debi says I am doing great.

Roll to the Left

My most favorite exercise lately is rolling. Whenever Mommy or Daddy puts me on my blanket, I roll over and over, back to belly, back to belly, back to belly, until I get to the end of my blanket. Mommy or Daddy turns me around the other way and I do it again. You see, I really prefer to roll only to my right. I just like it! But tonight I had a problem. Somehow I rolled crooked and ended up rolling into the couch. I couldn't roll to my right any further so I decided to try rolling to my left. Mommy saw me and cheered me on. She was so funny that I laughed and laughed at her. I never did roll to the left after all that laughing. Maybe another day!

Happy New Year!!!!!

The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e.e. cummings

Gargle Gargle

I love, love, love going to Wal-Mart. Nice ladies always stop Mommy and Daddy so they can talk to me. I love meeting new people! I usually just sit quietly in my seat and smile politely when they talk to me. But tonight was different! I decided to try to talk to the nice ladies before they stopped Mommy to talk to me. Guess what? It worked! Even more nice ladies stopped and talked to me when I talked first. When I got home, I showed Daddy what I said to the nice ladies to get them to stop and visit. Want to hear what I said? Watch!

Trying to Crawl

I am trying so very hard to crawl! Watch out Mommy and Daddy!

My Beautiful Christmas Dress AND 6 Months Old

This is my beautiful Christmas dress. Mommy's cousin Emily sewed and smocked it for me. Mommy says I look just like a baby doll. I think it is so pretty! On Christmas Eve, Mommy, Aunt Lori, Grandmother, Granddaddy, and I got to light the Advent candles at church. It was special! I got to wear my pretty dress. A lady at my church took our picture. I will ask Mommy to post it when she gets a copy.

Can you tell in my pictures that I feel bad? I went to the doctor last week because I had a fever. I had strep throat and an ear infection! I am finally starting to feel better today. I have been talking and laughing and playing. I didn't get to go to my 6-month checkup and get my shots because I was sick. But, I weighed 13 pounds and 12 ounces at the doctor visit. I am also 24 inches long now. I go back to the doctor on January 8 to get my ears checked and to get my 6-month shots.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. We are not finished celebrating yet. On New Year's Day we will go to my great-grandparents' house. I have lots of things to tell you about Christmas, but you will have to check back later! It's my bedtime!

Merry Christmas!

Good Naps

My Daddy is soooooo cuddly!













Peaches sat in my lap while I was napping.

The Trouble With Headbands . . .

First Word????

What does this sound like to you?

Mommy says she's sorry, but she can't figure out why the sound and video don't match up exactly. I asked her to please put my movie on anyway because I REALLY wanted you to see it!

Talking

I just keep talking and talking to that silly ceiling fan. Why does it never talk back?

Nap Time

Mommy was rocking me to sleep when I found a handle on the side of her head!
