By evidence of this video, I think Reilly might know her name! She is just the sweetest little baby and we love her so much.

Nana came to visit!
We are fortunate to have flight benefits because my mom works for Delta. With the benefits she is able to come out and visit a lot more than she would otherwise and we are always glad to have her! Reilly has come along way since my mom had seen her last so it was great for the two of them to catch up.
Just hanging out!
I set her down and she finds something to put her mouth right away. Never fails.
The new thing Reilly started doing this weekend is stepping around her play table all by herself (hanging on, of course)!
Cheers.

Two Teeth!
I thought that the teething process really wasn't that bad. It wasn't a lot of fun, but it was going to be way worse in my head. It was a relief to finally cut her first tooth a couple weeks ago, and then five days later we had another! Since she was working on two teeth at once I really think Reilly was a trooper. It is really nice to have two teeth over with.
Reilly still army crawls some, but it is mostly regular crawling now. She can also pull herself standing! In the video you'll see her doing both of those things plus a glimpse of her two teeth right at the end (sorry the middle part is a little slow). And the rest of our big news is that Reilly's Great Grandma Sharane gave her a whole new set of diapers. In the video you'll see her picking out the ones she likes best. I have the diapers in the wash right now and I can't wait to use them. Our old diapers were leaking a lot (which isn't normal) and Grandma came in and saved the day! We are so thankful for new ones.
On that same note, it is actually already time for Reilly to upgrade to a new car seat. We hadn't thought that much in advance, so it was time to read reviews and buy one. I feel like this whole baby adventure has been a testament of how the Lord provides. Just in the last couple of weeks we got two more gifts from people, apologising for being late in coming. They really weren't late at all but right on time because they paid for our new car seat. The Lord provides for us and loves us!
Blessings to you all!

New Things Everyday!
Reilly is learning so much right now. It is exciting to see what each day holds! Just recently Reilly has learned to clap. At first if you started clapping with her she would stop to watch you, and then she realized that she was doing the same thing! Now we just clap and clap. Who knew it could be so fun?
It has also been so nice having Reilly sit up on her own and not having to worry about throwing herself backwards. She also can get herself into the sitting position from being on the floor. She is a master scooter and SO CLOSE to crawling. We keep encouraging her to try - not remembering that once she crawls we will constantly be on our toes.
We are also trying a variety of foods now and some things are a real hit! She really enjoys sweet potato (who doesn't though - they are amazing) and any fruit she can get her hands on.
Big booty jeans I made for Reilly. I wanted something that fit over her cloth diaper a little bit better!
This is how we knew that is was (past) time to lower her crib! If they can look over the edge you've waited too long. We went from the first to the third setting just to save time.
Thanks to my calendar I have a reminder to take a picture with Raggedy Ann every month. We have enjoyed seeing how she's grown! This is her seven month picture, and as you can tell, it is getting harder and harder for her to just sit there. After many tries we got a few decent ones, but it just had to be good enough!
Thanks for reading!
