Week 29: 7 Days of Beckett

Day 197 (8/24): Beckett having lunch with her Gigi

Day 198 (8/25); Happy Beckett on Dad's lap - always smiley! 

Day 199 (8/26); Bedtime bottle sleepy face - her hair is getting so much longer - love it!

Day 200 (8/27); Beckett loves looking at herself in the mirror - this one is especially fun because she can sit up while holding it (yes, very supervised - time to start thinking about anchoring taller furniture to the wall - eek!)

Day 201 (8/28); she still can't get enough tummy time. She is now pulling her knees up a bit and you can really tell she wants to crawl. In the meantime, she's still our little super baby!

Day 202 (8/29); See what I mean? I can barely get a picture of her unless she is on her tummy! Love her sweet, always-thinking face in this shot.

Day 203 (8/30); We made it to the lake! Beckett had a couple hours of awake time when we got there - here she is hanging on the deck in her sweet summer clothes that are getting too small just in time for fall

Another great week with this babydoll. I swear she gets sweeter every day. I love hugging her while she 'jumps' in my lap. And smiling at her while she gives me a huge grin back and reaches out to touch my face. She is just so precious and we say at least 5 times a day how lucky we are to have this little lady in our lives. Sorry if this is crazy cheesy but she is wonderful and we're just so happy with her! I know I say it every time, but I can't believe we're only 5 days out from her being 7 months old. Seems like forever!

Likes:

• Bouncing - on our knees, in her jumperoo, when you're holding her - she can't get enough bouncing!
• Mango - her newest fruit. She seems to like it, especially for breakfast with bananas and oats
• Magic - magic is essentially a scarf being tucked into a papertowel cylinder and pulled out - she smiles big when it comes twirling out
• Her dogs - she can't get enough time watching them play, and she loves to pet them, especially Remy
• Her blocks - she's mostly eating them now, but she loves reaching for them and collecting them all in her arms/hands when she's on her tummy

Dislikes:

• Napping in the car, apparently - we had a rough ride over to Alabama. I personally blame the marta cop who walked up to my car when we were waiting on Austin outside his office - cop caused dogs to bark which caused Beckett to cry and she never really slept after that which made for a lonnngggg ride
• Greenbeans - she finally ate them pretty good... then promptly tossed them up. Must find another fruit or veggie to mix them with to see if she likes them then. If not, they'll wait until she's older and perhaps she just won't be a greenbean fan like her mom!
