Seven Months Old Already!!!

Well, another month has gone by and I truly can't believe it. I thought Kallie just reached the half-year mark, and already that's a month ago. Between months six and seven was pretty big for our little miss Kallie Paige...there were a whole bunch of new and exciting things happening.
1. She had a babysitter (other than a grandparent) for the first time, who put her to bed and everything!
2. She started drinking out of a sippy cup (and even holding it herself sometimes)
3. She started eating solids
4. She learned how to play peek-a-boo by pulling a blanket up over her face and then down again and again:)
And overall, she's just so much more interactive, funny, and babbling more and more. Her sleeping really started getting cemented this month and it's been wonderful for her mom and dad:) Our baby is still pretty immobile~she rolls all over, but hasn't made any attempts to scoot, crawl, or pull herself up on anything....AT ALL!!! Which I'm actually really enjoying! I'm fine having an immobile baby...when she's ready, she'll do it. And until then, I'll enjoy my days of not chasing a little one around...yet.
On Kallie's 7 month 'birthday' she and I flew to Winnipeg to spend the next two weeks (over Christmas) with my family. Lyndon will be joining us on the 22nd, and we'll all be driving back together. It was quite heartbreaking to watch Lyndon say good-bye to Kallie..I was definitely crying. It's so hard for him to be apart from her for 10 days...he's not too happy right now, and Kallie definitely misses her daddy! I have some great pictures from Kallie's seven month journeys, but I'll have to wait until I'm back home to post them...along with all of our Christmas pictures! We're very excited for Kallie's first Christmas! I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas, relaxing and celebrating with the ones you love most!
