Makayla hit the big seven months just after Christmas! This pictures from this post include our Christmas with Makayla, our Christmas with Kari’s parents, and a Christmas with Joshua’s brother’s family via UPS. Overall Makayla really enjoyed Christmas and she seems to enjoy playing with everything she received. And while she didn’t really get Santa Clause, she could tell that something different and special was going on…especially when a giant exersaucer appeared in the living room over night.
In addition to crawling all around the house, she’s figured out how to pull up from sitting to standing by using the coffee table. Now anything on our coffee table is fair game and usually ends up on the floor. She’s been trying to pull the same maneuver with our TV stand and end tables but they are a bit too high for her right now. She’s also been taking more spills and tumbles but we’ve noticed that as time goes on she’s falling more “gracefully”.
In terms of new foods, we’ve introduced peas and avocado.
