For the Grandparents: 7-Months-Old

Ellen turned 7-months-old on MarmDad's birthday (Happy Birthday, MarmDad!).  She is a doll.  She's very good at playing independently and with The Bairn.  Sometimes when The Bairn rides his tricycle through the house, she crawls after him, which he loves.  She stands up whenever she gets the chance and falls over so many times a day that I worry about her brain getting knocked around too much.  She yells, 'Buh! Buh! Buhbuh!' while she works and strums her lips with the back of her hand to make music.

One morning I came downstairs to find her adorably sleeping over Steve's arm while he worked on the computer.

And then later that day I found her playing vehicles with The Bairn under the table.

She has a lot of work to do.

And she looks darling in a hat.
