My little love is is about to turn seven months old and is about to go to her very first halloween party! We put on a party each year for our close friends full of nummy treats, good music and great company! I'm really excited for her first go at it! She is properly dressed to win the prize of best costume in a hand knit cape and booties as Little Red Riding hood, it's about the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life! LOL She works it well!
We've had a rough week her and I. She is trying hard to crawl but not getting far yet... I think the milk heavy tummy is hard to pull up LOL The front end pushes up and the back end pushes up... just not at the same time :-P I also believe we have a new tooth on the way that might be causing crabby baby.. not so fun!
I can't believe 7 months has passed with her in our lives. Time sure does fly! I am trying to enjoy it all even the rough days... though it can be a challenge!
The weather is becoming colder and colder now and our beautiful colors are starting to fall off the trees. Still love it though! Rowan is enjoying the leaves too, mostly the yummy taste of them LOL She seems very intrigued with all these changes. It makes me very nostalgic for when I was a child and enjoying the fall. My most fond memories come from playing in the fall with the colorful leaves. My mom by my side and my shaggy non-stylized poodle rummaging around as well. I am so excited at the prospect of giving good memories to my daughter. I too will cherish her first fall and winter. What an exciting time. Those cranky teething days and my messy home will NOT be what I remember about this once in a lifetime age. I will take the time to focus on memories for the future <3
Photos to come of my little pumpkin! Tee Hee!

6 months and in love!
A few days late putting this up...
My little love is 6 months old today! She is growing up so fast it's crazy! Life has been very intense since she joined our family, lots going on with her and with our careers and just life plans in general. I am glad I get to take the time now and then to really enjoy where we are at. This is one of those times. I Refuse to be so stressed out and edgy all the time. I feel the past few months I get crabby about how messy my house is, about plans not coming together fast enough, about not getting everything I want to do done.. in my time, and worrying about people judging me. I am going to do my level best to chill out the next few months and enjoy my baby and changing life. She is the most important project of my life after all. It is so important to celebrate her being 6 months because babyhood is passing by so fast. I look at her sleeping next to me.. and yes she still sleeps in bed with mom and dad... and pug LOL I look at her little face and remember all the nights I longed for this and would have done anything to be where I am now. Sometimes I get a big goofy grin in the middle of the night, my own little secret that I have my perfect little girl who is so smart and beautiful and a lovely little character to live with. This is real love <3
So six months old today! She is now 18.08 lbs my big girl! 27 1/4 inches long too! She has two teeth and possibly two more coming in these days. She sits up very very well on her own to play with her toys. She can roll over both ways and is very close to realizing she can crawl! My little pumpkin says Mama, Mom, Dada and Hey! We are already doing Elimination Communication with her and it's going VERY well. She pees on her potty and poops pretty much most of the time now. Her diapers stay dry so much longer. She seems to understand that it's more comfortable to stay dry.. though I doubt she has much real control yet, just an intuitive mommy LOL ;-)
My little one is adored by all her family and friends. Her grandparents all love her so much and play with her every chance they get. She is one lucky little person! Everyone loves her personality too, my little smiler. I can't wait to see what she grows into and what she loves in life. That is my biggest wish for her is happiness and ability to appreciate the world and people around her. I want her to be kind, self confident, creative, joyful and empathetic.
I want to record everything for her so she can see how much she is loved. Those big eyes that sparkle with joy are amazing, I need to remember them forever. She has the best little toes and chubby legs that kick kick kick in her bath. The softest fluffy reddish brown hair that smells of comfort to me. Little hands that I can't ever control, they want to examine everything in her world. I want to record it all.
Fall has now arrived and with it amazing beautiful colors and smells. Yummy food too! Lovely pumpkins and garden produce. It's no wonder it is my favorite time of year and one full of fond memories growing up. I Hope to give Rowan happy memories of this time too. Warm stews, jumping and playing in leaves. Hiking on beautiful trails through the mountains. Cuddling in for coco and cookies. Not to mention hot veggie soup with everything from the garden! Yes, this truly is a favorite time of year <3
