7 1/2 Months...


SEVEN MONTHS OLD
This age is so much fun! 

We are having such a great time raising our daughter.
And for the most part, she seems to be a happy girl...

Hello!

She loves table food and her sippy cups.
"No, you may not have my banana, mom."





We have begun the bittersweet process of weaning and Cami is learning to tolerate bottles.
Still, she loves to nurse so it's a battle of wits come bedtime. 

Who knew such a round, little thing was so flexible? Perhaps I'll be one of those proud moms in the audience at the Olympics, cheering on my little gymnast. 

Camryn is getting so big that she has easily outgrown many of her baby toys, like her cradle swing...
(it's on the "to do" list for take-down this weekend. sniff. sniff.)

Clarke jokes that Camryn is his "favorite" child.
At least, I think he is joking.

Clarke: "Hey honey, I want to take her for a ride."
Me: "Um, no."
(they look conspiratorial, don't they?)

Have you ever heard the song "Father and Daughter" by Paul Simon?
Love it!


Darling girl, quit growing up so fast! Cami recently learned to roll and rarely spends more than a few moments in the same spot--always on the move, that one.


Camryn's new trick is rocking back and forth...on her knees!
Today, I found her halfway across the floor, but she had performed a series of rolls to get there.
Still no real crawling. Whew!





We LOVE this face so so so much! 


Camryn is healthy, happy, smart, gorgeous and best of all, OURS!
