It's a Golden Life

Sister friend, is seven. That's a crazy sentence to write! 7 whole years old. She is about to be in the 2nd grade and I can hardly believe it!  She is hilarious. I love it. On a daily basis, she has some funny comment and makes me laugh so much. She is my identical twin to when I was a little girl. Even down to the facial expressions. I have her number.  All she wanted for her birthday was to milk a cow, ride a horse, and have breakfast in bed. We settled for a farm themed birthday and breakfast in bed.  Complete with a cow girl outfit. She is 43 lbs and 3'9".  Chicken worm cupcakes were her idea. She even decorated them.  Festive farm foods like Hay Bales, Cow Patties, Tractor tires.. Chicken feed, a garden of fruits and veggies... Pigs in a blanket, corn on the cob, and Mac and cheese.  Some burlap, cow print, and paisley bunting.  And decor for the foods.  We had a fun time celebrating her birthday! 

Huxley is 8 (1/2) months old?!  -20lbs 29 inches -sleeping (usually) well 7:30-5 (eat), 7:30/8.  -LOVE all the foods. Avocados and bananas are your jam now. Baby food is for babies, apparently, because you want to chew (with your gums).  -bath time is the highlight of your day. -weaned from nursing this week (on your own terms) -crawling on all fours and pulling up. Working on cruising.  -love your walker and ramming it into people with your arms open wide so they will pick you up.  -say "haiii" and "buhyyy" with a very southern accent, while waving with your whole arm. Sometimes both. Say "mama, dada, papa" and make a "mmmmm" sound when hungry.  -claps and says "yay!" -gives the best hugs and says "awwww" -loves to screech like a pterodactyl.  -this guy is personality plus. He is so sweet, funny, and determined.  We celebrated Haly turning 7 and took Chi to camp this month!
