seven




Caroline is now seven months old! We are having more and more fun with her each day. I love this stage. From what I hear people say, I am going to keep loving each new stage. I love to see little glimpses of her personality starting to come out. I was actually reading more on the meaning of Caroline's name this week. I read it means joy and song of happiness. We find that very fitting for her.
-still at four bottles a day
-eats baby food 2-3 times a day

-sleeps 12 hours at night
-had her first fever this week
-no teeth yet
-can pretty much sit up on her own, still needs a little help at times
Likes (mostly of the same as last month):

Dislikes:
-peas and prunes (can't blame her)

We have been doing alot of celebrating around here this month...

John's grandfather turned 92 this week. Isn't he the cutest?

A weekend in Orlando for my SIL's brother, Corey's wedding.


I even got a few hours by this pool...though you wouldn't know it by looking at the color of my skin.
Picnics at the Duck Pond


We have had a really exciting month thus far! We never really got around to making that list we planned on in hopes of making the most of Jp's time off. Although I feel we are doing plenty and loving it! It has been so special to have this much family time.
More celebrations to come...
