Our little chiquita banana

Seven months old and so grown up!  Adelaide is a crawling master (her new favorite game is to make a beeline for the dogs water bowl until we run to stop her) and is now pulling herself up and "crusing" around holding on to the couch or her walker (pictured).  We had a visit from Grammy and Grandude this past week, and we were glad they were able to celebrate the big 7 month milestone with us.  Grammy taught Addie how to wave and clap her hands. The funniest thing happend when I went to get her at 3am last night as she was crying in her crib, as as soon as I showed up she stopped crying and started clapping. This girl apparently has trained me well.....

Last Days of Summer

Since school is starting and fall is on its way, we have been trying to take advantage of the nice weather here before it is gone! Here are some pictures of Addie's big beach adventure, a hike in our neighborhood nature preserve, and of her favorite activity, bath time. She is now fully mobile, and can scoot along with the best of them. She has said her first word "mama" :) Our only worry is that she does not run off to the circus when she gets older, since she seems to really love the juggling acts.
