Camera News!

So I don't know if anyone has noticed but I now have this amazing wonder!

I will not recount the saga of getting said amazing wonder but let me just say. It was a saga....and I cried a bit when it finally came in the mail.
I am currently on a pretty steep learning curve but am super excited and snapping away with many a wonderful and also many a horrible result! I have already purchased one book and have plans to obtain a couple more from the library...I also have to get more comfortable with carrying it around as I can no longer just throw it in my purse or diaper bag!!
It is everything I hoped and longed for it to be.....*happy sigh*
I just love it when a plan comes together!

8 months + a week...oops!

She is eight months old...oh yeah plus a week! Oh dear! I have been very remiss in blogging and there is so much to tell.
First you just have to see this little girl. She is well...she is!

Its wonderful how development ebbs and flows with times of major change and development and times of slow and subtle change.

Over the past few months things have been subtle indeed.

Just recently she started "talking" more. Her babble sounds more and more like "words" with varied sounds. She is so flirty  now and will actually smile at strangers...and yet she is also in the throw's of some serious separation anxiety. And I am getting this feeling that we are about to get moving in the major change lane.

And the other day I realized that I have not even noticed that there are other babies that are younger than her out there crawling away....we are to busy enjoying our blessedly unhurried pace. Ha.

She has at least four top teeth leisurely making their way down... something that for several day's made us all completely miserable (I mean really we were all seriously miserable!) but one day quite suddenly the clouds parted and we were unbelievably glad to have our happy baby back.

Poor baby at the very end of our picture session she fell forward and bumped her lip...it got all swollen up :-(

Well that is enough random thoughts for now...coming soon camera news!
