Ash is almost 7 months old and she loves her Army Daddy!

Heres some pictures of Ashlyn! She's getting so big we are just blown away! She's going to be 7 months old next week.  She still isn't a big fan of fruit but she loves her oatmeal! She has to take lots of icky medicine right now.  I took her to the Pediatrician on Thursday. She's had a cold for about 2 weeks.  But Wed night she started wheezing and it was getting worse on Thursday.  So she was diagnosed with RSV but she doesn't have to be on a nebulizer thankfully. The doctor said I brought her in early enough that she should respond to Amoxicillian and Prednisolone taken orally.  Her wheezing is gone but she hates taking it. I mean, really, when doctors tell you to give medicine orally to a baby, how much are they really getting in them? Because it seems like 3/4 of it comes right out.
Her other favorite toy is her spoon. She could just chew on that all day long.
She got into this habit of spiting her oatmeal all over me lately.  Not fond of that....neither is Enoch. 
And she loves her feet! She's always playing with them in the store or in her carseat or eating them when I'm trying to get her ready for bed.

She loves her blocks! They entertain her for a solid 30 min, that's a long time for her. She's learning so fast it's crazy. And of course she gets into everything.  If it's within her reach, she goes for it.  Peoples faces, hair, jewelry, purses, jackets, bra straps, phones, keyboards (which is what she's trying to eat right now) the camera when you're trying to take a picture.  But it's so fun to watch her explore her world and learn so many new things.



Another big milestone, she's trying to crawl! She can her up on her hands and knees but that's as far as she gets. She ususally moves herself backwards in an attempt to move forward. It took her all of probably 30 min to figure out how to get up on her hands and knees last week. Straightening her legs and arms wasn't helping her get anywhere, so she pushed back on her arms and bent her knees and TA-DA!
