Auburn Grace is 7 months old!

Auburn Grace weighs 18 lbs 9 ounces which puts her around the 80th percentile for weight.  She is measuring 27.5 inches longs which puts her around the 90th percentile for height.  She is just as precious as ever and looks more and more like David and her Gigi.  She is in 6-9 month clothes and though her feet are tiny in length they are just as round and plump as her little cheeks. 

Auburn Grace is a very happy baby and is very expressive.  She makes all kinds of cute noises and just loves when we sing to her.  Her favorite toys include her Lil' Shopper Set (she loves the milk carton toy), her stacking rings, and everyone's hair!  She is as sweet as pie, and brings us so much joy.  She is still nursing 5 times a day and is eating rice cereal, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, and sweet peas (carrots and zucchini to come this week!). 

Auburn Grace's health is amazing!  She has rarely even gotten the sniffles which is such a blessing.  And as "they" said it would, her reflux has definitely gotten better.  I can remember the days when she would spit up what seemed like an entire feeding; the days when I would have to use 3 different burp cloths; the days when I had to change her outfit four times (not an exaggeration).  But she seems to be outgrowing all of that and doing so much better.

Auburn Grace is sitting up on her own now which makes for such a fun stage of playing with her.  She is not crawling yet, but she still manages to roll to get whatever she is desiring. 

I love to dress her up and put hair bows in the little hair she has; she is such a cute girly girl.  She has the sweetest looks and a smile that will make your heart mealt. 

Thank you Lord for the treasure that is Auburn Grace.  Thank you for your goodness to give us such a healthy, happy, wonderful baby.  Thank you for your provisions for her and for your plan for her.  We cannot wait to see what you have in store for this precious child.

Auburn Grace, we love you more than you can imagine.  Your life has changed us for the better and has continued to sanctify us.  We are so thankful for all that you are.
