7 months old!

Sophi turned 7 months old yesterday. This past month has flown by and brought with it a whirlwind of changes.Sophi officially started crawling about a week ago. She's not super fast but she can get wherever she wants to go without any problem. She may, however, think she is a dog. Her two favorite places to crawl are currently Shiloh's kennel and food bowl. She is most interested in these two items when Shiloh is either eating his food or is in his kennel! They are learning to play together, though, which is pretty cute to watch!

Just in the past week Sophi has learned to pull up on things. She is still getting the hang of it and although I have not found her standing up in her crib I anticipate this moment taking place very soon!

Several other firsts for Sophi include taking baths in the big tub, which she LOVES and constantly wants to crawl and stand up while in the tub, going to the beach and eating sand, going to the nursery during church (much harder for mommy and daddy then for her of course) and eating lots of new foods. Her favorite food right now is avocado, she is a California girl after all! She also enjoys sweet potatoes, green peas and bananas.On one of our recent trips to the park Josh and I both commented on how much fun this stage of Sophi's life has been. Her sweet smile and cute giggle just melts our hearts and we love discovering her sweet, and sometimes ornery personality! I have enjoyed staying at home with Sophi this last month giving Josh more time to focus on his school work and teaching. We both love what we are doing and love the time we have with our baby girl. Life is good.
