August

August came and went so fast, that I'll just recap it. Julianna and Matilyn are interacting and playing together like best friends. Mati has reached some big milestones this month like crawling and standing, but not necessarily in this order! Our major task was to get her crawling instead of walking and she seems to have settled for a one knee and one foot crawl.

Also, Julianna started a new school the end of the month. She seems to like it as is mostly evident in her return to SASSINESS! (This might be a clue as to why it has taken me so long to post.)

Now for some pics...

Here, Matilyn is showing her love for not only the food, but the spoon, too.


Julianna is mastering her gargling techniques.


Just some flipping fun while Mati is the audience (or should I say a sitting duck!)


Okay, here's the progression.....Mati sees a speck on the floor and maneuvers into position...


...she goes in for the grab...


...back up to sitting for the next task...


...did you guess right? All babies love doorstoppers. If we're ever looking for Mati, behind the door is a good place to check!

Finally, the month was wrapped up as Matilyn turns 7 months old.
