Seven Months

What can I say? This little girl gets more darling every day. I thought 6 months was my favorite, but seven months is even better! She is just so MUCH fun! She eats like a champ, sleeps like a champ, plays like a champ...I'm having a proud mama moment, sigggghhh :)

She's doing better at eating solids, still prefers the boob but we give her just a bit of whatever we eat. She likes bananas, sweet potatoes, carrots, apples, green beans (all whole) and puffs! Puffs are like baby crack, she loooooooves puffs! 

She talks all day long. I like to think we have our own special language. When I talk back to her, lets say in public, people think I've gone cray cray but I truly just don't care lol. Because look at this face...







LOVE HER!

"All I want for Christmas..."

We took Norah to meet Santa a few weeks ago and it was the cutest thing! She just kept looking from us to Santa back to us. There were no tears, no fits of rage. She just kept stroking his beard (not yanking it like she does my hair). I think she did well for a first timer :)

Many Thanks...

Sorry my Thanksgiving post is a bit late but we've been busy playing with Grandma and Grandpa Furnell! My parents drove up to Michigan for a Thanksgiving getaway to spend some much needed Norah time, and this little Miss just loved every bit of it. Won't be long before she can say "Nana" and "Papa!"

We enjoyed our week together cooking, baking, eating, laying around, shopping, sewing and decorating!

I love this time of year, it always gives us a time to really stop and think about what we're thankful for and I've got A LOT to be thankful for! Here are 25 things I'm grateful for in no particular order!

I am thankful for…

My sweet baby girl. My life began when she entered our lives
My loving husband who works hard to provide for our family
The luxury I have to stay home and raise our child
The Gospel of Jesus Christ
Friends, old and new
My crazy family 
The sturdy roof over my head
Clothes on my back
Shoes on my feet
Warm bed to sleep in
Foooooood! 
Specifically, chocolate
The freedoms of our Country
The men and women who fight to protect it
Movies
Modern medicine
Sweet Sadie Sue, my puppy dog
Having a sense of humor
Modern technology, where would I be without Google?!
Health of myself and my family
My education
My vehicle, as shatty as it may be
My horrible rhythm, but my ability to dance nonetheless 
Reality TV
LIFE!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
