7 Months Old ... where'd the time go?

Brianna turned 7 months old on Friday, which seems so hard to believe.  Here's a few things that she's been doing lately...

She had her first big girl bath in the full size tub and she loved it!  She's much more stable at sitting up now and has pretty much outgrown her infant tub.  She's simply too long for it, much like everything else these days.

 

 

We also had visitors this weekend and Brianna wore herself out playing.  The Durhams spent this past Friday night with us and Bree was the center of attention.  Averi and Aspen were so sweet, giving her kisses and loving on her.  They sang her songs, read her stories and did all they could to get their Brianna fix.  Saturday, we went to the South Lakes park in Denton to play on the Eureka playground, which is extremely cool.  Roni  has several more pictures but here's a few that I snapped of all the kids playing, including a goofy one of Brianna and I going down the slide.  It was her first time in a baby swing and she seemed to really enjoy it.

 

 Let's see, what else have we been up to.  She's still loving her jumparoo and has gotten much better at bouncing herself around in it.  She starts laughing as soon as we put her in it and the moment we let go, she's going to town.  Its nice for many reasons, but one of them is that it wears her out and ensures she takes a good two hour nap on the weekends!  She's still teething, but there's no sign that a tooth is going to emerge any time soon.  So far, we've just got lots of drool and chewing on anything she can get ahold of.

She's such a happy baby, in fact that's the most common compliment we hear from anyone that meets her.  She's always smiling, giggling and just generally content.  She's started making actual sounds and so far, her vocabulary consists of "guh", "ge", and "da".  I have a feeling her first word is going to be dada.  She already makes the sound, but hasn't started putting it together with Justin yet.  She's very close though.  We'll say "dada" and point to Justin and you can just see her little mind working to make the connection.   

I hear her waking up from her nap so time to go feed her.  Love you all!
