Christmas is on its way!

It has been a very exciting week. Lainey started on cereal on the weekend and has loved it. She helps me feed her and when I give her the spoon she opens her mouth and puts it in. I think she has been ready for awhile but we were waiting until she was 6 months and that only a week away we thought why not try it now, I'm glad we did. This weekend we are going to do avocados!!

She also loves eating the cloth after clean up.
Snuggles!
Funny faces!
Starting to stand when she holds on to objects! I am now convinced she is just not going to roll. She can sit on her own for a long period of time and likes to stand but lay her down and she will wine your ear off.
So much to make before Christmas. My sister asked me to put together a baby shower gift for her. Her friend is having a little boy!!! I love making baby presents, and I hope my sister and the receiver of the gift loves it too:)
One Christmas present off my check list. This adorable reversible apron is for my little niece who is 2. I hope she loves it!

My next Christmas project! Love this material. Can't give anymore detail because it is a present.
Progress on Lainey sleeping. Well it is night two of trying to be tuff. Last night we tried but she just won't sleep in her crib. But I did get her to feed 2 times at night instead of 5, so I'm happy:) She just loves sleeping in our bed, sometimes I imagine Trevor and myself and our 4 kids all sleeping cozy in one bed, I am sure this is not what Trevor pictures. lol. We will continue to work on it and hopefully before she is 1 she will sleep on her own, if not oh well we tried. They are only little for such a short time. But we will have to buy a larger bed.
