Today was Peach Peeling Day at my parents. Every summer, mom goes to Porter and buys a couple of bushels of peaches. Some we save to eat, some we bake into a pie, and the rest get peeled and frozen for later use (peach pie in the middle of winter!). Edith was very interested in the peaches, so we peeled one and let her have it. Oh boy, was she in heaven!! She has decided there is nothing better than a fresh Porter peach, and I agree!

One Year Anniversary
Yesterday was Brian and I's 1 year wedding anniversary! It's so hard to believe it has already been one year. So much has changed and happened this past year, it has just absolutely flown by. We are beyond blessed with each other, our sweet daughter, and our wonderful families.
To celebrate, we ...

So far she has tried:
- pears and she hated them
- sweet potatoes, her absolute favorite
- avocado, her second favorite
- a bite of banana which she hated

- a bite of cantaloupe which she didn't like
- a few bites of watermelon which she enjoyed
- carrots, which didn't really get a reaction either way
- green beans, her absolute least favorite

7 months
I guess it's true what they say ... time sure does fly when you're having fun! Edith you are now 7 months old!
I don't have exact measurements for you, because we don't have another check up until you are 9 months! I think you weigh somewhere around 16 lbs and are about 27 inches tall. You are just a growing machine!
Your current habits are:
You are still a fabulous sleeper, most of the time. It's been a little rough this past month because you have been working on cutting 2 teeth. You go to bed around 9:30 and wake up anywhere between 8 and 8:30. Most days you wake up before me and just hang out in your crib until I come in to feed you! We have totally dropped your evening nap, replacing it with an evening walk. You have 3 naps per day, and they generally add up to around 4 hours.
You are still breastfed, but we have now added in 1 solid meal at dinner time. You nurse 5 times per day and generally eat around 4-6 ounces each time. We have had a ton of food adventures this past month, with your current favorite foods being sweet potatoes and avocado! I will have a more food detailed post later :)
You are wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes, and still some 0-3 month pants. You are wearing size 2 diapers.
This past month you:
- started pushing yourself from tummy to sitting!
- got 2 teeth!! It was a little rough for a week or so, but now you have such a cute little smile with your 2 bottom teeth :)
- are getting so much better at sitting on your own. You have such amazing balance.
- still absolutely love bathtime! It's your special time with Daddy in the evening.
- are starting to really get tired of your stationary toys. You would rather be playing with your toys on the floor.
- are starting to rock on your hands and knees. Crawling will not be far off!
- love being outside. You love to watch the trees and look at the flowers. Granny and Grampy's deck is your favorite.
