Happy 7 Months

Today is Violet's 7 month birthday. She has pink eye - but other than that little bump in the road she is doing just great! Here is a brief list of her recent accomplishments!

• Sitting up on her own
• Crawling - okay it's only been 2 days of this, but it's a pretty big deal.
• Speaking... only sounds but da is her favorite, we like to think she's saying da da to Randy but she also says it to me and Diego...
• Eating, she's been a slow eater, not too interested in food but in recent weeks she suddenly seems a little more hungry for something besides milk.
• Sleeping is still a rough one, but we are slowly working on it.
• She loves her bath time now, and tonight discovered how much fun splashing can be
• She has now been in daycare for one month and is transitioning very well, we just make sure to hug and play lots when we are together.

On another note (a sad one) my cousin's daughter died this morning, little Emily Rose was only a month old. Give someone a hug, and keep her in your prayers and thoughts during this very rough period. I have no idea the pain she is feeling, and can't even imagine. It only makes me squeeze Violet a little tighter and to recognize how lucky we are.
