Seven Month Update


My Angel, Margaret at seven months
7.10.2016

At seven months a lot has changed over the past four weeks. She can now sit up on her own, she is holding her bottle and feeding herself, goes all day sleeping with nothing but her onesie on. She still sleeps in her magic merlin sleep suit at night, I just can't break it from her! She is babbling all the time, loves to answer questions in the form of her own communication. She is sleeping throughout the night still, takes 2  naps a day, (morning and afternoon), sometimes a little cat nap about two hours before bed. She loves the pool and enjoys kicking her feet and moving her arms in the water. She accidently put her face in the water and was a little taken back by the thrill of it. We enjoy our morning time together by sitting on the front porch, swinging in her swing, going for walks or just reading on her play mat. I give her four bottles a day with three solid feeds, and just started making some of her food myself. I've been a fan of the Gerber food's but got the courage up to make her own food the other day. We will see where this goes!

Freedom and A Milestone

This year's freedom day meant a little more to me than it normally has in years past. Margaret, our only child right now, has changed my life, my heart and my view on this world. Freedom means more to me now, and I am thankful we have the freedom of choices. Charlie and I have the freedom to raise our child in a free world. We are thankful to live in the U.S.A and are thankful that we can worship and believe whatever we chose. 


Margret continues to amaze me with her new developments each day. She is very keen on her surroundings, and loves when Charlie and I are present.


For the Holiday weekend, we enjoyed a week long vacation with the Couch's in North Myrtle Beach, celebrating Polly's 60th birthday (A BIG MILESTONE) and time with family. We ended the Holiday weekend with a quick trip to Mooresville to visit my family and spent time on Lake Norman.
