crawling!

abby grace is just over 7 months old and is always on the move.

she's gained almost 1lb since 6 months and she now weighs 15&1/2 pounds.

she's learned a lot this past month and her new achievements are constant challenges & joys for mommy :)

i love crawling!

whenever mom puts me on the floor,

this is the 1st thing i go after.

i'm so little & cute

some videos of new things i'm doing...

clapping my hands together is my favorite

making "music" with my toys

crawling after maverick & giggling

mimi, lolly, uncle trey, & great aunt marylee visited!

i had so much fun!

i'm trying lots of new foods...

like avocado puree!

yuck!

i like it better mixed with oatmeal.

look at those eyelashes!

& yummy sweet potatoes!

cheeks galore

gave my daddy lots of love on father's day because he's the best!

just last week we traveled to visit our friends who are planting a church in seattle. they were on this side of the country so we road-tripped to meet up with them!

i'm such a great road-tripper!

delaney is 6 days older than abby grace

and this is the 1st time they met!

we loved meeting delaney!

delaney is quite affectionate and we found out that abby grace likes her personal space.

kinda like mommy. :)

kim & i holding each other's babies!

it was such a blessing seeing each other! we hadn't met each other babies and it was so fun getting to know delaney's bubbly personality!

what a blessed 7 months this has been!

texas trip

so... here's the recap of the last month.

we drove out to texas last month and abby grace did wonderful!! we left at 4pm, stopped for a longer stop around 7pm for dinner and to feed her, and then she slept

THE. REST. OF. THE. WAY. to texas. until we rolled in at about 6am TX time. praise the Lord! she's a little road-tripper like we are - and for that we are sincerely grateful.

here are lots of pics from our TX trip:

w/aunt meg @ matt's mexican restaurant

w/aunt nat

loved playing with uncle jas!

went swimming with nina & big daddy!

love my big daddy!

so cute

still not too sure about this whole swimming thing.


mommy & abby grace!

in texas we started solids!

abby grace's initial reaction... : /

started getting used to it :)

video of her 1st solid bites! she was pretty disgusted.

1 night in tx we were under a tornado warning so i had to wake up abby grace to move her to the pantry.

she was a bit out of it & grouchy.

she doesn't like to be woken up from her sleep...

just like her daddy :)


in TX abby grace turned 6 months old!

a week before her 6 month bday,

she weighed 14lbs 7oz & she was 26.25 inches long.

& now in a couple days she's almost 7 months old!

i'll post again soon with pics of her sitting up and crawling!
