B is 6 months

now that she is almost 7 months (shhh) I thought I would update on her

• She loves her toes and to pull her socks off!
• She smiles and coos ALL day long 
• She loves Finn and will laugh at anything he does, even if she is in the middle of crying if he comes and talks to her she'll perk right up
• Turns out she hates pureed food and would rather have the hard stuff like pancakes and frozen veggies. 
• still no teeth
• still nurses like a champ
• rolling like a potato bug but she refuses to sit up on her own
• absolute joy to be around and that sparkle in her eye can put a smile on even Scrooge's face!

November updates

Daniel got a small break from school for Thanksgiving so we were able to get some much needed family time.
We went to a small theater in Saint Paul to see Planes. Finn loves the theater! something about bottomless popcorn and treats and big comfy chairs gets him excited....?

the were way more interested in the pre-show than smiling

Then we went to Blue Door for lunch to Minnesota's famous blucy and delicious cheese curds!

Daniel and I got to play a lot of cribbage like the 80 year old couple that we are.

Finn has gotten very independent and tires to do everything himself expecially when it involves semi sharp objects. Here he is "making a samich" sporting his Thanksgiving craft we did that week.

For Thanksgiving we got together with a couple of our friends and had a Brisket. It was all of our first Thanksgivings without family so we decided to get a little crazy and have beef instead of turkey. Followed by a fierce game of BANG and pie we oddly felt very patriotic.

Of course no shave November:

It started to get colder so this is a common sight around here: Had coat and boots all put on by himself!
