Happy 7 months Ainsley!!!

Ainsley turned 7 months yesterday! We spent her 7 month birthday walking around LSU during LSU tailgating. And then we watched the game back at our friends house. She has been sick recently, so she has been trying to recover. Ainsley weighed in at 16.1 lbs. at her last doctor appointment around a week and a half ago. She is still not really in to eating baby food, yet. She is still nursing, which we have now surpassed our goal of nursing until 6 months. Now, we will try 8 months! She has made her first crawling movements, but she is not full-on crawling around the house. She is definitely mobile though!

Baton Rouge Weekend...

Spiderman and a Ladybug!

I love my kids!

Ainsley is now on all fours and moving around really well. She can scoot, but not crawl. She gets up into crawling position, but she can not figure out how to move her arms forward. She just started this week moving from sitting position to her belly and back to sitting position. And you can tell she is so proud of herself when she does it...she just gets this huge grin on her face like she has accomplished something! Ainsley is also getting really good at grabbing toys that she gets in her sight. Evan carries this clear backpack around with all his "favorite" toys (which is everything). When he puts that bag near her, she gets so interested and goes for it. I love how she is now getting to an age that they can kind of start to play together. Evan loves being able to sit with her and play with her. He also loves it when she gets his toys just so he can laugh at her and tell her she can not play with it (a glimpse into the near future of them fighting over stuff). Here are some pictures of them playing with the toys from his bag. They were taken with my phone so they are not good quality.

FALL...my FAVORITE time of year!

Fall is my favorite time of year! Or I should say Fall and the holidays! Here are some pics of the kids at a small pumpkin patch we went to for a pumpkin. It was really hard getting Ainsley to look at the camera. She kept wanting to eat the pine straw from the ground. There was a small attempt to get a picture of the two together, but I quickly gave up on that. Soon I will be adding pictures of the kids in their Halloween costumes! As well as, some family pics that we took this past week.

Pretty Girl!

Happy 6 Month Ainsley!

Ainsley turned 6 months Wednesday! She is already half a year old. I still have a hard time wrapping my head around that! I took Ainsley to her 6 month check up on Monday and she is now in the 50th percentile. She weights 16.6 lbs. and is 25 3/4 inches. She has started babbling so much now. She sits pretty well and can do push ups. She will definitely be crawling soon with how much she is practicing and trying. She already scoots on her belly. We have also started feeding her a little bit of fruit each night and she is starting to like it.
