Welcome Fall!

Not much to report here- still a daily comedy show.
Ivy has tried some more foods. Carrots are good, Sweet Potatoes & Prunes OK, Peas make her gag, and Pears are heaven on a spoon- she even grabs the spoon and shovels it in her mouth herself.
Brooks' new favorite phrase is "Brooks try!" Brooks try is cute and adorable and driving me up the wall. I can't do ANYTHING without Brooks try, Brooks try. This includes putting lids on things, putting sugar in my coffee, putting on my own sock, etc. It is a great sign that he is growing and learning, but man does it make things take a while.

And the reason anyone even reads this blog :)- PICTURES!
Smiley Ives! (Brooks has started saying Hi Ives b/c that's what we say, it's so cute)

Putting a cup hat on Ivy is entertaining to all


Watching Yo Gabba Gabba is serious business

My stripey cuties

A swinging fool




Last weekend Nana & Pa came to visit, as well as Aunt Sarah. We had dinner at Benihana and it was great just to hang out







Family fun at the park- enjoying the cooler weather


Ummm, mom, should I be in here?


Magnets at the Franklin institute

Also at the FI- this thing blows air when you push a button. B was highly amused


Playing peekaboo at the FI's lighthouse



A pair for life :)

Ivy at the FI

The gravity balls are great for a solid 15 minutes of entertainment. This membership was great, it is EMPTY there and he can just enjoy

EWWWW food faces

Smiling Ives!


Holy moly- multiple pics with them both smiling





Goofballs!






Relaxing at home



Brooks likes to do "brooks try" with Eric while he gets ready- so he got his own man tie. He wore this to gymboree and was the handsomest guy there!



HAPPY 7 MONTHS IVY!!
At 7 months you are eating more
Take 2 naps
Sleeping great some nights (1 wakeup) and horribly others (multiple and lots of crying)
Are still the happiest, smiliest child
Squeal a lot
Are given to drama- if you drop something you cry immediately like the world is ending
Love teething biscuits
Sit well and are leaning forward to grab things
Somehow have a newfound interest in the pacifier
Laugh a lot- mostly when watching Ming, Brooks, or Biz Markie beat box on Yo Gabba Gabba
Are a snuggle bug!
