I was talking to my mom the other day about our trip to the coast we are taking the end of this month. We will be gone for seven days and I hadn't realized (or taken the time to really think about) we will be gone on Halloween. "How can we be away on Claire's first Halloween?" I asked. "She'll only be eight months old," mom replied. I quickly said, "No, she just turned seven months...oh, I guess she will be eight months old then." Where has the time gone? I know she is still a baby but she's not really a little baby anymore. She's just changing so fast. My mother and I had tea the other day with her neighbor, who has a two month old daughter. Claire looked like a giant next to her, and Claire is on the small side for her age. She is really turning into her own little person. As exciting as this is, I kind of miss the newborn days. She was so tiny and helpless. Just in the last couple weeks I have seen more and more of her little personality. And wow...it's quite the personality! Lauren and Annie were both fairly mild and placid. Claire, on the other hand, is already sassy and full of attitude. Anyway, here are some seven month shots. This "old man" face, she just discovered she could do today. Probably has something to do with the fact that she has a cold and her nose is like a faucet...I know, gross! D'ya think she'll need a haircut before she's a year old???

You know that thing that she does with her lips, like in the second picture? That's so cute!
Ha, yes! She'll definetly be needing a haircut!
Nothing in life is more important as noticing the stages of life our children go through. Every little thing they do becomes our memories when they get older. That is if we are truly blessed as our family is. I sill remember Lauren writing with a pen on my window sill just after I had repainted it and you had a fit when I wanted to put a sealer on it. To me it was a precious memory that I would look back on when she was grown.
