Smiley is 7 Months!



Dear Smiley,
Can you please stop growing up so fast?  It seems you are no longer interested in being our little baby and want to fast forward to a little toddler.  Baby food is getting boring and you are much more interested in your mom's french fries (who can blame you, they are sooo yummy and you do have two more teeth than you did last month at this time).  You are also getting more mobile.  The other day, you commando-crawled right past your dad,  out the sliding glass door that was open, and onto the patio before anyone noticed.  Your Senya-dactyl sounds are becoming more pronounced, like you are trying to have a conversation with us.  Everything goes in your mouth. Even though we are vigilant about keeping everything off of the floor, you still managed to choke on your sock that you pulled off of your little foot and ate this morning. One thing that hasn't changed is your fascination with Ava.  Can't wait to see what next month brings.  We love you so much!
Love, 
Mom & Dad 
P.S.  You could work on sleeping more at night ... see those bags under my eyes?  Oh well, I am sure there will come a day when I miss those quiet hours together where you and I listen for the sprinklers to come on at 4 a.m. and the newspaper to hit the front porch at 5 a.m.  and we both fall back asleep just in time for the alarm to go off at 5:30.
