Evaleigh Crawling

I am finally posting another video! I have a bunch of videos from the summer but just haven't posted them. This one is pretty up-to-date. I took it this morning. But while I was uploading my pictures she crawled again even better! And of course I didn't have my camera ready...

She started getting her first tooth yesterday! I thought I saw a little white dot on her bottom gums, and when I put my finger in her mouth I felt a little hard point!

She is (finger) feeding herself really well now. She likes to eat bananas and puffs. Last night I gave her some small cooked pieces of green beans, potatoes, carrots, and peas. She made a face but kept eating them anyway. It was too much fun for her not to!

I go back to school on Thursday. It's been a fun, eventful, relaxing summer. Can't believe it's over! I didn't do half the projects I wanted to... but I always plan too much. We made a trip to Mexico which was great- Evaleigh's first trip out of the country and first trip to a beach and pool!

I have been working on the embroidery class I am taking. I almost finished one of the dolls I have in my last post. I got another pattern for crochet but I don't think I even picked up a crochet hook all summer... We've been trying a lot of new recipes and eating healthier. I got this book from the library: Eat to Live, and we are going to try his meal plan. It's a really good book so far! But it's going to be harder to cook once school starts.. I know why so many people settle for fast processed food even though it's unhealthy.

Well, now it's time for her nap!

Summer projects!

I have a long list of projects I've started and never finished that I plan to work on this summer, but I am also starting some new ones...
I am going to sew some dolls for Evaleigh from Wee Wonderfuls:

I plan on buying some cute fabric and trim from Super Buzzy!

I also signed up for an online class about embroidery! Wild Olive's blog is where I found it.

Evaleigh Reading

Here is Evaleigh reading a book. When we read to her, she turns every page, when we start it for her. She loves books!

Happy 9 months old Evaleigh!

Can't believe she's already 9 months old!! But she's not crawling yet and still has no teeth... soon enough...!
Here's a video from a few days ago.

Dadadada

Here's a video of her babbling "dadada".

Talking and Sitting

She can sit up on her own pretty well now! She also says more things such as "ning ning ning" like her cousin Tamsin!
