I am back and so happy to be taking Greta's picture myself this week! 
About a month ago I went to cloth (well sort of) diaper. They are called g diapers. My favorite part, other than the whole saving the earth and avoiding the diaper pile up, is that it looks like I had my little G's diapers monogrammed!

Magnificent 7 months

Greta 7 months-3 chalkboard web
At seven months Greta ridiculously cute and absolutely melts my heart. (That statement applies to every month really)
She is a snuggler!  When I pick her up she wraps her arm around me and nuzzels her head in my neck.

She laughs every time I sing to her, it doesn't matter the song, serious or silly.   You know how I love her laugh, so I don't usually make it through a song because her laugh makes me laugh.

She can grab and stick her own binkie her he mouth. 

She is eating all kinds of food;  Sweet potatoes, avacado, apples, pears, and peas are the current favorites.

When I walk towards Greta with a wet rag to wipe her face after she eats, she flinches; she knows what is coming!

She is rolling all over the place.  I think she is very close to moving crawling.  That is something I have very mixed feeling about.  Once they start moving everything changes.

I love watching my kids grow.  I love seeing their little brains figure things out as they become smarter everyday.  I love when they begin to recognize Mommy, and lean or reach toward me.  It is such a great feeling.  I love all of it!  I just wish things could slow down a little.  I feel like right now is a perfect time with my baby girl.  I am really focusing on taking in all the magic I can.

Greta Jane: 30 weeks

I stepped away for a moment

While I was taking Greta's 6 month pictures, (still to come, but they will be worth the wait!) I stepped away for just a moment to change Greta.  While I was gone Jackson and Asher grabbed my camera.  These are the images I found when I loaded the pictures later that day.

Greta Jane: week 29

Greta wk 29 web
I love that her hat is on her backwards. I don't think that was me, but it very well could have been. I love her cheeks and lips when she is sleeping.
