Met her Great Aunt Dorothy from Florida

First Corn Hill Festival

First play date with Will!

First trip to the library

Little moments:
* making kisses sounds
* started saying "dada" in the midst of other sounds - she's been making b, g,  and n sounds too
* sits for long spans of time (and then falls over)
* becoming more and more impossible to change - I call her Squirms
* has tried peas, green beans, squash, apples, and oatmeal this month
* stares down food and drinks ALL the time
* VERY determined to grab things, even if they are out of reach (I rarely wear necklaces anymore...)
* rolls and rolls and rolls...if I leave the room and come back, she's never in the same spot
* anticipates when her bottle is almost done and puts a death grip on it so you can't take it away
* has days when she cries whenever I leave the room and she's magically fine when I come back in
* STILL waiting for those bottom teeth to pop through...they've really been bothering her lately - I check every morning to see if they've come through!
* giggling a little bit more (still mostly silent laughs)

7 months old!
