Seven months and standing

Well she can't completely stand on her own but that doesn't seem to stop her from trying. So much has happened just within 2 weeks: she rolls better, sits better, and climbs her way to standing while holding on to something or someone of course.

She is fearless
She loves to smile
She doesn't like carrots (yet)
She is amazed by the smallest things and is amazing
She loves to go on walks with mommy and daddy
She says, "da da and ba ba."
She can make you smile,
but watch out she's a spitter

The rest of us here are doing well...Steve continues to amaze me with his will and willingness to further his education by taking classes to get his Master's. It also looks like we will get some house projects done soon and I am so excited. I've been keeping busy with some things. I have gone back to work on Saturday's at my old job and a new one every other Friday. It has been nice getting out of the house for a couple of hours. Other than that I've had to take a break from knitting..."a monster was created." In the mean time I've been working to improve my culinary skills. Oh I got a new pair of shoes and they were on clearance.

Today I took Gabriella to the Health Dept. to get her booster shot for the Flu. Our pediatrician's office was out so off we went. It's never fun to get a shot and Ella did pretty well considering. She was such a good girl today that daddy bought her a new toy.


(Side note)
This morning was pretty interesting. As I got up to give her a bottle I noticed this awful smell...yes oh yes there it was, EVERYWHERE! POOP! Poop on her legs, poop on her arms, poop on the side of her face, and all over her shirt front and back.
It was so nasty.
Lucky for all of you I didn't take a picture, it would have haunted you. It is best to leave you with this image of her...ENJOY
