Eskimo Pie

Our precious Katelyn Pie is getting so big...she's turning into an actual little person (funny how they do that!)! She eats three meals a day...has "conversations" with people - even if they are just little grunts, "ooooohs" and high pitch squeals...she's rolling all around and desperately trying to crawl...She wears shoes and socks...she has little friends at daycare...she has "likes" - peas, green beans, squash, chicken & rice, rice cereal, anything soft and fuzzy, bathtime - and "dislikes" - being strapped into her car seat and highchair, sitting down, carrots...she snores like a little old man...and she has a wardrobe better than my own :-) How can an almost 7-month-old seem so grown up? What happened to our tiny little helpless baby that needed us 24/7?...sigh...deep breath...sigh, again...


A friend told us recently that when you start feeding your baby solid foods their noses take on the color of whatever they are eating...looks like Miss Pie is eating a bit too much squash...whatchathink? :)
