this weekend

Here is little Erica who is rolling all over the floor whatever toy she wants to get to she rolls and pivots to it. She also rolls to the dog and gets kisses from Ellie. She loves Ellie so much, she just laughs and laughs her her when she gets kisses. Erica is also getting her first tooth, I felt something this afternoon it is barely though the gums but it there!!


We have been trying new foods with Erica and having some success! We gave her a "baby cookie" and she loved it she sucked on this thing making of course a huge mess. I though this was such a cute picture of her trying to gnaw off a piece of the cookie.

we're back

Sorry we have been MIA, things here are just crazy. It seems that this past month we hae not had a chance to settle down. Erica is 7 months now and she turned the switch on to her appetite, she is eating what seems to be all day long. She eats three meals a day including her puffs, and then her bottles. We are now weaning her from breastmilk to formula and she is doing really well. Her foods that she is eating is of course her stage two gerber food but also yogurt, cottage cheese, banana it is so much fun to see her face with new foods.
Wed. is her swim class she loves it she just floats like she has no cares in the world which is exactly how she should feel.! She is rolling an pivoting all over the floor, I know the crawling is coming, she lifts her tush up to try and oush off with her feet but gets tired. It is going to be a whole new world though once she masters it. We have bought a gate for the stairs to try and be prepared. We are also contemplating switching the car seat to her convertible seat once the weather breaks. I will post new pics soon
