Molly 8 months

This outfit was mine when I was little <3 p="">
~Mid-month you started to scootch, it is so cute watching you move from place to place. However, you really have to want it to go too far.

~This month we went with the youth group to Canada for a mission trip. I was so nervous how you would do in the car...but you did great!! It probably helped that all the teen girls wanted to sit next to you and keep you company! This was both yours and brothers first time out of the country and we had no problems.

~ The end of the month was Woodinville's family retreat out at Delano. We had a great time fellow-shipping with the other families out there!

~We have started you eating solids 2x a day(usually...if I remember)....

~puffs...You love them!!

~8/28 you started to clap a couple times then while at the zoo with family everybody at a show clapped and so did you. Soooooooooo cute!!! And you were so proud!!! You also have rhythm and can already move and groove to the beat :)

~You love to hang out with your little baby friends at church. You get so excited to see them and just squeal and squeal when you get next to their faces....is this how it will be when you are a teenager??? You also love to attack their faces and steal their hairbows...I think it's just your enthusiasm right???

Molly 7 months

I figure I should get your 7 month update up before you actually turn 8 months huh.....Well sweet girl, 7 months has flown by so incredibly quickly! It doesn't help that we are in the midst of our "crazy busy summer" and we hardly have time to breath, much less soak up enjoying your babyhood. I actually had forgotten that you turned 7 months. Somebody asked me how old you were, and I said "6 months, wait what is today...the 5th, oh she is 7 months old." YIKES that happened FAST!!! You are starting to become a little ball of sunshine although smiles for others that are not immediate family are rare, you give your mommy, daddy and brother the cutest little smug smile ever when you see us!

~ You went from hardly sitting on your own, to doing it like a champ! Now you will fuss if you have to lay down.

~ You are still drinking 6oz bottles every 3 hours. You LOVE real food and haven't shown any preferences yet. You have tried green beans, peas, avocado, sweet potatoes and squash.

~ We moved you up to size 4 disposables although they are a wee bit big still. We are still in cloth at home though.

~ We are starting to figure out your eczema and how to keep it from flaring which is nice.

~ You are in 6 month clothes and sometimes 9 months, but I'm saving those "bigger" clothes for when you don't fit in the smaller ones anymore.

~Gigi came to visit this month and we had a fancy lunch in the space needle where you decided that you had to cough for every one the entire time. Luckily people thought it was cute ;)

~~ Can pivot and manuever your way all over the floor.

~Jump Jump Queen!!

~Tried church camp and you were a big hit, however we left early due to lack of sleeping on both you and your brothers part.

~You have had some severe separation anxiety this month but only if you hear/see mommy and you are not with me.

~You have finally decided that the car isn't so awful after all. Don't get us wrong, you still cry....but you give up a lot faster and fall asleep.

~You "talk" to us. If we go "ahhhhhhh" to you, you respond back with "ahhhhhhh" it's absolutely adorable!!!

~At around 6 1/2 months old you started sitting up on your own!! One day you weren't and the next day you were. This has given you such freedom though!
