Savvy is 7 Months

By
I took Savannah in for a 7 month check up this past week! She is 27 inches long and 17.25 lbs. Everything is in working order :-)
Savvy is rocking back and forth on her hands and knees. She can scoot backwards and faceplant forward. She is babbling up a storm! Even said Dada last week several times. I do believe that is her first official word and as much as I deny it, I'm pretty sure she connects the word to Matt. Needless to say, he is very excited about it. Savvy can grasp objects, switch hands, brings things to her mouth, reach for toys, flip the pages of a book, pull her feet to her mouth and sleep through the night.

To experience her smile is life altering.

She loves to eat! We started her on solids a little after 6 months. She didn't like cereal, even mixed with breast milk. But she loves combos. Sweet potatoes and carrots. Carrots and apple sauce. Pumpkin and spinach. Squash and carrots. Avocado and pears. Auntie Ellie sent us the baby bullet and we have put it to great use! It is much easier to clean than the blender. :-)

Savvy = happy baby

After you clean your room...

By
This evening Cassidy revealed to me a small secret to keeping her occupied. After dinner she asked me if she could watch a show. We don't have tv, but we do have netflix through the wii on our tv and we watch all the greatness that PBS and Nickelodian have to offer! Except for Caillou because I think he's kind of whiny. Anyway, she gets to watch limited amounts of Diego, Dora, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word World, etc and sometimes we throw in some Cosby Show for good measure. She'll pick two shows and watch one, 20 minute episode of each and then we call it good. Well tonight when she asked for a show, I told her she could watch one episode of her favorite after she cleaned her room. She went into her room and as she started putting toys away, she started playing with them. She'd go to put books away and start "reading" them. Twenty minutes later she'd start putting crayons away, then start drawing with them. Ten minutes later she'd start putting awa...

Back 2 School 2024/2025

By
 The start of a new school year is scattered and quite full as we begin the fall with a bang on multiple campuses.  We gave Savannah a few options for her start to middle-school. She was at WES for 3 years and had made a solid, core group of friends- super strong connections! All of them were headed to the zoned school of Greylock regional, grades 7-12. Going to Greylock wither friends would mean we would have to drive her, school choice does not provide a bus. It would mean she could not do all the things because of the commute and our schedules, her options to get involved would be limited. If she chose to go to the school we were now zoned for, she would be walking distance to Miss Halls and could do alllll the things- go for it! Join every club, try out for the plays, do all the sports.  Y'all already know, Savvy chose her friends lol. It is hard. And she is so happy. And never complains, because she understands with this choice, her options are limited. We have been ...

The Weekends

By
The weekends have a new meaning to me now.  Saturdays are the perfect day because I get unlimited access to Cassidy. During the week I have to share my time between work, chores, tasks, and more. Sunday we have church and prep time for the week. But Saturday is magical. Saturday is for adventures in the park and incredible views in the mountains you can only reach by foot. Saturdays are for sleeping in or getting up early and making a big breakfast. Saturdays we sometimes stay in our pajamas, and others times we get all dressed up for no reason. On this particular Saturday Cassidy and I met up with some friends at church for the first End of Summer Fair. We had a good time...
