Evie is 7 Months Old

Seven months old.

One of these days I'll go back to the good ol' blog postin' days and actually get things up more than once a week. Not anytime soon, but I'm still hopeful. Sometimes, I'll be walking around thinking, "Oh that's cool! I should take a picture of that and then write a blog!" But then I never get around to it. Evie just keeps me hopping these days. If I'm not fishing things out of her mouth, then I'm rescuing her from falling over and bumping her noggin. Busy, busy! That's her (and me apparently).

So I know I'm a few days late, but Evie is 7 months old. What is she up to at this crazy age? What is she not up to, would be the better way to put it. I believe I totally skipped the sixth month posting (I think). But two days before her sixth month, she started crawling. Within a week of that, she was practically a pro. And by her seventh month, she is currently doing way more than I can keep up with. She's crawling like a pro, pulling up to everything (seriously...everything), cruising where she can, trying her best to let go and stand on her own and saying Mama when she's really upset I left her with daddy. She's starting the finger food days. Banana puffs, sweet potato puffs, Cheerios, tiny bits of toast (as of tonight), and her favorite, graham crackers. She's on about 75% of the different fruits in veggies in the baby food aisle and still fights me on peaches, pears and carrots. She still wakes up all night long and wants nothing more but to sleep on my pillow with me (I know. Not safe.). But best of all, this girl is one happy little baby! She loves to play with and follow Alex and Abby everywhere and loves to sit with us at meal times. All around, little miss Evie is just doing wonderful! I'm so blessed to have such a happy and fun little girl...even if she does keep me on my toes nonstop.

Is she not the happiest little girl you've ever seen?
