Independent Baby
We spent the fourth this year in Happy Valley again with my sister's family and my parents. We had a cookout (that's for you Ford) and went to the park were there were thousands of people, music, vendors and bouncy houses. It was soooo hot so we only spent about 10 minutes there. We lite fireworks and then the city does a great fireworks show over the city. It was so awesome. Allie took a late nap and then she did great staying up until 10:30! but she fell apart in the car while we were stuck in traffic.

8 Months Old
Allie is already 8 months old and is getting so big! She is now scooting around the floor, it started out backward and as of two nights ago she switched her gears to drive. She has been starting to get up on her knees and doing "the bridge" alot. She started clapping last week (with her hands as she has been clapping with her feet for a while). Her hair is starting to slowly grow in and to celebrate that I put little clippies in her hair. It was so cute! She has the brightest personality and biggest smiles. and now her teeth are a little lower and her teeth shine in that smile. :) Here are some pics of her goofing around.

Father's Day
I know it's a bit late but Happy Father's Day Matt. Your a wonderful father and I love to see your bond grow with Allie everyday. Your amazing!
While Matt was playing in a Father's Day golf tournament I visited my dad. We watched an 80's movie that he loved and then he opened his gift. Here is what I got him.
and if you know my dad you know he loves Xena. Yes Xena. Last year for his birthday I got him a few Xena dolls and now he has 6 different characters. and he just got the whole tv series on dvd. That will keep him busy for a while.

She's Back!
This summer I took on my niece Brynne (6 next month) along with Will and Allie while she is out of school. It's only three days a week but Whew! I have WAY more respect for moms of three! It's so fun though. We have been having a blast! They got this brand spankin new play structure in their back yard. The favorite feature is the swings!

Love
I know we are supposed to feel relief when she goes to bed because it's a much needed break but instead we both miss her. We LOVE being parents.
Here are some cute pictures I couldn't resist posting. These are for you Nonna Donna.

Teeth!
Allie's bottom teeth came out 2 months ago and her top teeth finally popped out last week. and she is getting two more beside her top teeth. I was able to catch them on camera. They are the cutest things, they have a space in them - for now. We miss the gummy smiles but we are loving her toothy smiles.

7 Months!
Today our little girl turned 7 months! She is growing so fast and we can't even remember how little she really was. We are LOVING this age. She is so expressive and in such a good mood most of the day. She loves to be tickled and squeals with some big belly laughs when you bite at her tummy. Allie can now sit up on her own and is doing barrel rolls around the living room. and as of the other day is scooting backward on her tippy toes. We know crawling is just around the corner. As you have seen she is eating food and I have really enjoyed making some of her food. It's so much easier feeding her then it was a month ago. It would take 20 minutes to get an ounce in her and now she eats quickly and willingly! Her personality is really coming out and she is the sweetest thing. She wins over strangers in a second. Everyone falls in love with those big blue eyes and dimples!

Chubby Knees
Allie has the curse of chubby knees that she got from my side. You will never catch me in shorts or a short skirt. :) Sorry Allie. Her doctor also says she has good breastfeeding legs. Look at those thunder thighs! Ever since Allie was born Matt has made up little songs for her. Usually to the tune of another song but he changes the words. Here is his latest one to the tune of bah-bah black sheep.
Bah-bah Allie-kins have you any chub?
Yes I do
Lots of it
Right around my knees

Yum!
Last week we started giving Allie rice cereal. At first she just wanted to chew on the spoon but now she actually wants to eat the cereal. Of course she also wants to rub her mouth with her hand and then rub the cereal all over her face and ears. What a mess! :)

Twilight Tour
My sister has been begging me to read Twilight for a long time and I finally gave in. Well I fell in love. All the books are awesome! I just finished the fourth today. Last week Matt's mom had a couple of family friends in town and Tamara is a Twilight fan too and since the movie was filmed here they were going to check out some of the spots so I decided to tag along.
They have a "walk of fame" were you can buy a brick to help fix the chimney at The ViewPoint Inn and the film crew bought some and had the characters names put on them

"It Was Everywhere!"
My nephew Will (18 months) occasionally likes to take pieces of clothing off during his nap. The other day he had gotten his arms through the neck hole of his shirt and pulled it down to his waist. Today I got a call from my mom, she called to tell me what he did during his nap today. Because of the weather she took his pants off, well she is regretting that now. He had gotten his diaper off and then pooped in the play pen! He then stepped in it and then preceded to smear it on his shirt and face. She said it was everywhere! and then smell was so strong it woke my dad up in the other room! She had to immediately put him in the tub and then spray the play pen and his clothes with the hose. I am SO glad that didn't happen here! Tomorrow I will be duct taping his diaper on!
