We have also created a Month 8 folder.

10/31/2008 - Happy Halloween from our little pumpkins!

Anna Claire had a great time on her 1st Halloween (more pics in album on right).

And she has reached another milestone...she's crawling! She started crawling the day after I updated the BLOG saying that she wasn't there yet but was close. We'll post some video of her crawling soon.

10/25/2008 - Mommy's Weekend Away

I spent the weekend on a Women's Mountain Biking trip at Mullberry Gap. It was a beautiful place, with fun trails and wonderful meals; I would highly recommend it! Here's their website: http://www.mulberrygap.com/

This left Anna Claire and daddy to a weekend by themselves. It looks like they had a good time and he did a good job of dressing her in cute outfits :)


Anna Claire update:

As you can see from the Month 7 pics, she's now sitting up well on her own. She's very close to crawling and even though she's not quite there yet, she still manages to move herself around on the floor.

You can also see from the pics that she's now eating babyfood. So far she's had applesauce, prunes, green beans, squash, carrots, peas and papaya.

She has also started cutting her first tooth! We first felt it a week or two ago but now you can actually see it coming through!

At our last pediatrician's appt. she weighed just under 16 lbs. and is 24" long.

On Sunday, we did Anna Claire's 6th Month sitting with Diana. Click on the link below to see those pics:
