Hi baby

Your growing so much this week. We took you to the doctor and they said your still a little midget. 5.6th percentile for height and 25th percentile for weight. hahaha. That means your taller then only 5.6 % of kids your age. I'm okay with you being little. It will help me keep you little for a little longer then everyone else :) Daddy is working on school and your busy jumping away. Jumping is your favorite acitivity by far for the most part. I just love to watch you and watch you learn new things.

Love you pookie bear.

Ohhhh baby! Such an exciting day watching you learn something new! you learned the fine art of locomotion! Log rolling is in your skill set now!

Kaleb and Jase were here and we were all playing on the carpet and magically you figured out if you kept rolling you could join them playing under the table and oh babe it was so cute. Jase is glued to you even more than he ever was. You like to swat at his face though. Haha. He doesn't particulaily love when you poke him in the eye. These are you cousins and they will love you forever :).

Dear Avah:

Hi baby. I've decided that here, i'm going to start writing to you. Dad thinks it's weird but I would love for you to look back one day and know exactly what I was thinking some days.

I just want to start with I love you so much. Today you are 1 week shy of 7 months old. Your the most wonderful adventure I have ever taken. Being your mom is so tough yet so rewarding. Everyday now your learning something new and your growing little by little by little. And I just can't stop loving you more and more and more.

It's a sunday and so dad was home today (duh cause it's sunday) and we did so many wonderful things. It was unseasonably warm yesterday so we took you out to play on the deck for the first time. You loved it so much you sat and played with your mortimer moose and smiled at the sun shine. We also had your first campfire. First of many I pray. People are always asking who baby looks like and you know, I still haven't decided. In this picture

you look so much like me.  Yet sometimes when you giggle all I see is daddy and those big blue eyes of his. I love watching you two together. He's getting the hang of it now. Not that he wasn't before. He's such a good daddy. He supports me in ways I hope your future partner supports you. He is there for all the night time feedings, he'll just hang by your crib and watch us and he's always there for you to sit with and play. He feels silly talking to you cause you don't talk back yet I told him not to worry and to just talk and one day you'll talk back with a happy 'dada'.

He tries really hard too and sometimes you shun him from snuggles and he's so sad. He just wants to be an amazing dad for you and I just know he will be. 

Tonight your having trouble sleeping. Your growing and getting teeth. You sprouted both bottom middle teeth at the same time. Barley even noticed that you had them till i randomly thought to look for them one day. You tried a few fruits for the first time today too! Strawberries and green grapes and watermelon. Grapes. Yuck. Lol watermelon was pretty great though lol. Dad and I get frustrated sometimes but we just are so used to you being such a good baby and sleeping through the night. So every three hours awake is tough. I just tell myself, I love you, I love you I love you. Always helps me through tough nights.

Mwah Pookie bear, love you.
