Greta ~ Seven Months Old

 I found it difficult to choose just one representation of Greta at 7 months...so here are a bunch of photos.
Taking a little break to ponder her next happy pose.


 For some reason, Greta just had a ball with this photo session, more so than ever!


 So HAPPY!  She can hardly contain her joy!  ♥
 "Hey, who turned out the lights?!"  (Bet you haven't heard that one-liner in awhile?!)
Who doesn't have an occasional wardrobe malfunction?
Oh, how we are enjoying this precious baby girl!  Greta is rolling all over the place, and showing interest in pulling her knees up beneath her - likely to be taking off crawling in the near future.  She is a vocal baby and loves to sing little melodies and chatter frequently.  She still loves to kick and dance!  So far, she's tried sweet potatoes, peas, green beans, peaches, applesauce, and pears.  Pears are her favorite, so far.  Sleeping through the night is still a much appreciated gift that she gives us most nights, though daytime naps are short and sweet, and not always guaranteed -- so Mommy finds herself behind on chores lately.
These months are soaring by too quickly!  We are loving every moment.

Kicking Donkey

Though she seems to clam up a little for the camera, here's a glimpse of the very frequent kicking activity that Greta so loves!

Grayson Loves Chocolate!

 At the cabins for Labor Day weekend, Uncle Joey brought up a variety pack of doughnuts to share.  Gary went to get himself a creme-filled pastry with chocolate frosting....  Hmmm?!
 Someone had found himself alone with the doughnuts and licked the chocolate frosting off the tops of several of them.
 He wasn't in trouble -- we were quite amused.  Little Grayson was sheepish as he admitted his role in the vanishing chocolate topping. 
We adore our little chocolate bandit.

Beautiful Sweater from Great Aunt Karen Schueler

 Greta received this beautiful sweater from her great aunt Karen Schueler, along with a gorgeous hat and knit booties.  So precious!
