Milestone Monday

Ok, So apparently today is the day of many posts! I guess it makes up for the time lapse between the last few...

I have to write these down so they are documented and also so I can put them in Miss Malin's baby book. Ever since Malin hit 6 months she has been hitting new milestones a "mile" a minute! Lets begin with scooting around at 6 months, then all the sudden right around 7 months, boom! She is on the move crawling all over. Don't think for a second that her blinking, bright music filled toys could possibly be more exciting than outlets and wires! Also, as of yesterday Garrett and I have discovered a little white speck on her gums and feel the sharpness of a possible tooth arriving soon! I cannot believe it but things are happening and Malin is growing up! We are very much enjoying this stage as it quickly goes forward, whether we're ready or not!


Ciao!

Visitors

We enjoyed a wonderful visit two weekends ago from Garrett's parents and brother Brannon. It was a great for them to see Malin, how much she is growing and changing and spend some quality time together! It flew by as is expected when you're having fun and are always busy! We were of course entertained the whole weekend by many of Malin's "tricks", great meals, walks and a few basketball games!Many pictures were taken but I'll add a few of my favorites that sum up the great weekend! See you again Stone Family!!

Food Fight!

So... Malin hit her 6 month mark a few weeks back, and so began her venture into "adult food"! We began with rice cereal which actually went better than I had imagined! Although it seemed like most ended up outside of her mouth, the whole bowl was cleaned out at the end.

After a meal of peas!

We also have dipped our spoons into peas and pears as well. Some have gone better than others, but as to be expected I suppose!
You can see Malin is sitting like a queen in her new high chair! This New Year for Malin brings lots of fun, visitors and Mangos!

Ciao,
