Shopping Trip

Macy has been walking along the couch while holding on for a little less than a month now. She cruises along pretty quickly and can even climb over obstacles even with only one hand holding on. Last night, she started walking while pushing her shopping cart. Luckily, the camera was nearby to catch it on tape!

Macy goes camping

Macy's first camping trip was to Bear River Reservoir to watch Aaron get his rescue diver certification. We definately had to bring more stuff and a bigger tent but she had a great time. She loved being outdoors with so much to see. And she loved all the attention she got from the rest of the dive group.

Apples & Blueberries

Apparently Macy REALLY likes blueberries. So much so that she couldn't be bothered to wait for Daddy to feed her and had to "help" out by grabbing the spoon and shoving it in her mouth.

Crawling is so yesterday

After only a couple of weeks crawling, Macy has it mastered and has moved on to the next stage... pulling herself up to standing.

Today, I turned around to see her standing up while holding onto the gate. Soon after, she was over to the barstool and anything and everything else. I guess this is when the bumps and bruises begin!

And she's off...

Macy started crawling on our 2nd wedding anniversary - what a great gift for her Mommy & Daddy! She's getting better and better each day but I don't think she always remembers that she knows how to crawl. She'll crawl / roll around just fine when she's playing. However, once she is done playing or is just cranky, it's as if she forgets that she knows how to get around and just wants you to come get her rather than crawl over to us. We are having a great time watching her play and learn how to get around. I'm sure the joy will fade for me once she really get's the hang of it and I'm chasing her around the house! But for now, we are just enjoying each new stage and accomplishment.

Yum!

Macy started solid foods at 6 months old. We started with rice cereal and waited the 5 days (to ensure no allergic reaction) and then gave her sweet potatoe followed by avocado. She loves both the sweet potatoe and avocado but seems to enjoy the avocado more. Since then she's had pears, peas (not her favorite), mango, apples, and the latest as of this morning: peaches.

She is getting pretty close to crawling. Right now she is able to get on her hands and knees and rock back and forth. Looks like Daddy will be spending his next day off baby-proofing the kitchen & bathroom cabinets!
