7 months and crawling


Libby turned 7 months old yesterday. Above you can see her funny monkey face. it's really funny and cute. She also learned to crawl last week. (which is pretty early for those who haven't been around babies recently). We also noticed her gums looking rather swollen yesterday and sure enough, this morning we could see the bud of a tooth starting to poke through. She doesn't seem to mind though. (probably b/c Richard let her suck on an otter pop).

Here is a picture of her in these ridiculously cute boots my friend Joni is letting her borrow. They are a bit big, but there are so cute I had to put them on her. She did a little jig in them, which was funny. I'm not sure why, it is underlined and blue above, but I'm too lazy to fix it....

Liberty loves green beans


Liberty prefers green beans over applesauce. What a silly girl. She actually prefers green beans to any other food we've given her besides otter pops. (She's had carrots, peas, rice cereal, oatmeal and applesauce). I tried to put in a funny video of her eating peas, but it won't upload. I've tried like 4 times. :(

On Thursday we went to music makers which is a mom club put on by some awesome ladies in my ward for all the little ones. We were excited to see Carrissa and her girls there too. Libby loved every minute of it. We were late so we missed most of the story time, but we got to do finger plays, sing fun songs with actions and play a kazoo. Libby was dancing and jumping and trying to play with all the other babies and kids (and sucking like mad on that kazoo). I think we will try to go more often. (not sure if it will happen every week once we move though). I am going to miss our ward.

Liberty learned to sit herself up. It is quite impressive. She rolls to her tummy, pulls her knees up under her, pushes up with her hands and untucks her feet out and ta-da she is sitting. That is how I found her this morning. Sitting up in her crib sucking on her blanket. Silly girl. I imagine that is how she is now since she is supposed to be taking a nap and I can hear her blowing raspberries and jabbering away. (hey, at least she's not crying, right).

In other news, we rented our storage unit and will be moving our stuff in this week. Then we get to clean clean clean. Oh and in case you hadn't heard....Richard got into BYU-Idaho!!! They haven't given us his track, but it will probably be Winter/Spring. That is why we have a storage unit. We are moving in w/ family to save up some money until January when we will (hopefully) be going off to school! We are both very excited for this opportunity. (not too excited about the snow though, bleh).
