Se7en Months!

Zoey Belle "flower"


Zoey is a very happy baby! She is the quietest one in our family by far, yet you can't help but notice her joyful spirit! She is such a delight!

Zoey is somewhere around 16 or 17 pounds and growing longer every day. She loves to hang out on the floor and watch everything and everyone around here. She is quite the observer. She does not give smiles away usually, in fact you have to earn it sometimes! Unless of course you are one of us :) She has become a little more clingy to mom but still a daddy's girl at heart. Her brothers just adore her. Zoey is trying to crawl more and more each day, she has been able to get up on all fours and rock a little bit. She pretty much just rolls or scoots to get places. I am sure it won't be long now. Teething on the other hand is taking a very long time, she still does not have any teeth to show off. Even so she loves to eat! This past week she started on baby yogurt, and blueberries. We are slacking in the veggie dept. We are working on helping her to sleep longer at night and in her own bed so please be praying for success for us :) It is very challenging at times, especially in our small apt with all the rooms so close together. Crying it out works really well and is easy with the first kid and maybe even the second but by the time the third one comes around you really want the other two to continue to sleep through the night and having a screaming baby in the middle of the night is just not so desirable.

she is so cute. i completely understand the 'wanting your other kids to sleep' instead of having baby scream in a small apartment...ugh...working on that myself! hang in there!
