This is what happens when you turn your back on Alice and don't move the food out of the way. It was EVERYWHERE!

We bought Alice some blocks to play with and she ADORES them. She will spend hours in the pack and play just putting them in the little bucket they came with or through the little shape holes. She is trying to pull up. I honestly think shes going to skip the full blown crawling stash and just skip to walking...we shall see though. She is still teething..and it makes her miserable! Some days she won't nap because of it..although she has never been a big napper anyways. She is bitting at random objects though..like the little flour mirror on her walker she LOVES to bite..I will be VERY happy when she's done teething!

 Alice is 7 months old! I can't believe it. Time is flown by! She is growing before our eyes. She babbles..a lot. Will carry on "conversations" with people. Loves to play with her toys. Loves being held even more. Smiles all the freaking time. She is the happiest baby I have ever seen!

She is cutting two more teeth. Which makes her a tad miserable sometimes. But she gets past it. She is still exclusively breastfeed. Although we have tried giving her some solids she hasn't put anything in her mouth yet. Instead she likes to throw it on the floor and watch the dogs eat it. What I have given her to eat I have found int he roof of her mouth instead of her swallowing it.

We still Co-Sleep. I have tried putting her in the her crib..it really doesn't work out. Clint wants her out of our bed ASAP. She is a bed hog. She isn't a good self soother yet and doesn't like to be by herself for very long...eventually that will probably change but for not we are in no big rush.
