Happy Thanksgiving!

It was Sarah Margaret's first Thanksgiving and we had a wonderful time celebrating up in Toledo with the Tresize bunch. She started cruising on Gramma Sue's sectional couch and was so silly trying to make people laugh. We got to see Gramma Sue's new house that hopefully she'll be moving in this week. Thank you for such a nice holiday! We are so thankful for our family and friends this Thanksgiving.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

8 Months!

With each new month, there comes lots of exciting developments that we (her parents) just love noticing. Just before she turned 8 months, Sarah Margaret starting pulling up to her feet on our coffee table, boxes, and anything else she can reach with her little arms strected out. She also started feeding herself little Cheerios and Sweet Potato Puffs at the table. Also, Dad (Andy) taught her how to open doors if the door is slightly cracked, she loves opening up the door and discovering what is behind the door. She is still a wonderful eater and tried turkey, cauliflower, potatoes, and green beans with meat (just in time for Thanksgiving!). We're going to try to get some more 8 month photos posted but here are a few videos of Sarah Margaret in action for the family!!

Swing!

Since the weather has been so beautiful these past couple days, we have been going to the neighborhood park often to swing. She loves it so much that she could swing for hours! It is also a nice way to meet other parents in the area. It won't be long before Sarah will want to go down the slide and swing across the monkey bars.

I've also uploaded some new photos to Sarah Margaret's 7 month album.

New Blog Feature

To the right hand side, we've added links to all of Sarah Margaret's photo albums so it should be easier to find the link to our new photos. The idea came from my fabulous sister-in-law Anna from her wonderful blog. We will try to update with photos often so we hope you enjoy.

New just yesterday: Sarah pulled up to standing on our coffee table last night! She has been pulling up to her knees all this week but just last night she stood on her own two little feet.
