Mattie Anne Update

It has been forever! I'm so sorry that I haven't been updating! Life with Mattie Anne at home not working is completely different and obviously not conducive to me posting on this blog. I have to admit it hasn't been on the top of my priorities...but I'm sure ya'll can understand, or at least sympathize!

Mattie Anne is now 7 1/2 months old! I don't know weight, length, and all of that stuff. I do know she is bigger than she was last time ya'll saw her!

*Mattie Anne is crawling! That is our newest thing! She is everywhere..except the grass! Today was a beautiful day in KC and I put her down on the grass to crawl and she cried! It was a fussy day so I don't know if it was her mood or what but she would not crawl on the grass. She would sit on it, but no moving!

*She likes Mickelson's (our mini schnauzer) food...well at least picking it up- I think I've prevented any pieces making it into the mouth-but I can't be 100% positive!

*She doesn't like the word no! She understands it for sure, but doesn't like it! Unfortunately she hears it a lot now that she is mobile!

*She is eating table food. She is eating sweet potatoes, carrots, apples, Cheerios, kiwi, squash, zucchini, bananas, rice, chicken, oatmeal...exciting stuff! Her papa fed her chocolate ice cream and she liked that too!

*She is saying Dada. I'm a little sad...but it is really sweet and a good excuse to get Dada to change diapers!

*She is still sleeping really well, this week she started standing up in her crib so we had to lower it- a really big hassle! I think we thought it would take 10-15, maybe 30 mins....more like an hour and half!

*At daycare Mattie Anne's favorite toy is a water bottle that has feathers and bells inside. She steals it from other kids, we are going to have to work on sharing really soon!

*She loves for you to clap for her! She gets very excited, she also laughs when Matt dances!

*She has tons and tons of bows...her newest has a flower close to the size of her head- it is adorable! She will probably kill me when she is older because of it! I hopefully will have a picture to post...if not I will get one- but don't hold your breath for it, I don't have a good track record of up dating regularly!

Well, I can't think of anything else specific! There is a new story every day!
