Busy Summer, Busy Baby

It has been quite a while since I've written, especially in baby time! Since my last post, Halle has begun crawling, pulling up to objects (like the couch), and has cut several more teeth (she now has eight!). She is a well-traveled little baby, and just this summer has been to Idaho and to Washington, D.C. She is trying to talk, saying words like duck, cup, yes, and many more. She doesn't say them all the time...just when she wants to. Just this week, she learned to walk along the couch (while holding on), to climb the stairs (scaring her mommy half to death), and to drink from a straw. She has quite a sense of humor already, and keeps us laughing. She loves attention, and is very friendly. She's pretty adventurous and isn't scared of much. However, she is terrified of the vacuum cleaner, and seems to be a little bit afraid of the dark. She has also learned to give hugs in the past few weeks, and I am loving that! I'm going to add some random pictures on this post, and will add pictures of our trip to D.C. a little later this week.




Halle figured out how to take her arm out of her shirt a few days ago. She thought it was very funny!



Halle loves to play the piano. Mommy is thrilled about that! This is her "How am I doing?" smile.


Halle also LOVES the bathtub. She can say "bath", and she's not afraid of the water at all, as you can see by her splashing.

Oh, she's so pretty! I can't believe how fast babies grow! She looks like a little ham, too. I know you're having the time of your life with her.
