Leah is getting so big. She learned to go from laying down to a sitting position while I was in DC 2 weeks ago. Brian was bragging that he got to see something first, before me. Well, I should let him have it. It's only fair that he saw it first since I did leave him with all three girls for the first time!!
Then this past weekend she has discovered that she can pull herself up in her bed! Wait a minute, now we have to take the mobile down, lower the mattress and start checking tables that she can get to! I have enjoyed not having too much stuff child proofed or baby proofed I should say. But now I am going to have to really pay more attention.
Soon enough she is going to be crawling and so now I'm having to think about a baby gate for the stairs! It's all coming too fast. She looks so little and I can't believe that she is 7 1/2 months old! It doesn't feel like it's been that long.
She smiles when someone looks at her but then she cries if you leave her. I like that even though I have to hear her cry when I just have to get a refill on my coffee! I love having our Tuesday and Thursday to just the two of us while the big girls are at school. She gets to snuggle with me before her nap and she just looks into my eyes as she sucks her tiny thumb. I am so thankful to have this beautiful little baby to love and I am trying so hard to soak her all in before she grows up. Slow down Leah!!!
