7 months a mom

I wrote this a week ago, awaiting a photo that I am going to take, but blogger was down and I have yet to take the photo.  I will post the photo on another day or post:

Two things happened in the last few days, Mothers Day and Kaylee turning 7 months old!  I had the BEST mothers day.  Kevin made a weekend out of it making me dinner and brownies, doing chores around the house (and I mean big chores like moving an old couch out of the apartment almost all by himself during my nap), and best of all ZOO PASSES!  But what I really want to talk about is being a mother.  When Kevin and I decided to start a family I was both nervous and excited.  But when we finally got pregnant, it wasn't long before that chance was taken from us.  I am so glad that Kaylee stayed healthy in my belly and healthy outside my belly so we could enjoy her presence.  She is such a blessing to us and I feel so happy to be a mom!  So mothers day was so special to me because I was able to celebrate this wonderful eternal calling I have to be a mom.  I am so glad it is forever!

A lot has gone on for Kaylee this month too!  Here are some of the things she can do:
-She can sit up by herself for a long(ish) period of time.  She has even gotten that way on her own before!
-She is really starting to move, and by move I mean crawling.  It isn't the typical baby crawl yet but it is half inch worm, half army man and sometimes a few normal crawls put together.  :-)
-She went on her first flight.  It didn't go horribly, although at times it was rather challenging.
-She got her first tooth in San Diego, and her second tooth last week!!  They are becoming more and more prominent every day. 
-I am pretty sure she is starting to say mama!!  Oh please!  It would make me SO happy!
-She is eating more and more foods, the latest being green beans.  The only food that she kind of cringes at.  She does love her apples and prunes.  I love making her baby food!  It is cheaper and I find it really easy to make.  Except home made rice cereal.  That I am not good at.
-She laughs more and loves to be around people.

I love being a mom and I love watching Kaylee grow up!  She is my little princess and she always will be!
