Kaiya- 7 months!

Month 6 just FLEW by! As she's growing she's developing a lovely amount of independence, which gives mommy and daddy just that much more time to not only get things done, but also to sit and watch her play, which is all sorts of entertaining and awesome. She babbles, studies her toys with intenseness, and follows Cooper around trying to steal his toys (because they're clearly better than any of her toys).

She's not quite "crawling" in any formal way, but she sure gets around! She does this worm like thing where her butt goes in the air, pulling her knees under her and then she slides forward with her arms, thus inching herself in a forward direction. It's pretty effective, if not pretty:)

She's learned to clap:

She started riding in her stroller like a BIG girl!

She went to her first Indian Restaurant (and even tried a mango lassi!)

Mommy made her some new headbands to fit her giant head ;)

She learned to wave, though she only really waves at herself (in the mirror)

She got her first toothbrush!

She got a big girl's high chair:

She finally snuck up on Luna quiet enough to inspect her feet:

She welcomed her new baby cousin, Madeline Maryanne Murphy:

She got her 6 month shots :'(

She learned that being IN her toy box is even better than digging through it!

She watched ALOT of football with Daddy:

She got to spend some time with her much loved Godparents:

She learned to drive. (Thankfully that's not true)

We tried to introduce finger foods:

And she was a chef like her Daddy for Halloween!
