Finners say: "MFAH"

Clifton and I took Finley to her first trip to the Museum of Fine Arts Houston today. She seemed to enjoy it, though she still doesn't like to be facing outward in her stroller. About a third of the way through our visit, we had to rotate the stroller because she got fussy not seeing either Clifton or I. North Looks South was a fantastic exhibit, I recommend it highly.

We also started pumpkin today, Finley had a Thanksgiving pie themed breakfast today: applesauce and pumpkin. I am guessing she will enjoy both. Clifton and I got to reap the benefits of her pumpkin eating, we had pumpkin waffles.

Such a Cute Bug

Finley is wearing her oh so adorable lady bug dress today, the pockets are lady bugs. We have had a big day so far, lots of playing. We also worked on her top secret Father's Day project. I have some great pictures, but I cannot post them until after the holiday, we wouldn't want to ruin the surprise.

We can still feel her tooth, but we cannot see it unless there is a flashlight involved. She still shows no signs of crawling, but she can spin around on her tummy pretty well. She is so curious, so it is going to be a big change once she gets mobile.

Hats and Bug Bites

Finley's tooth is almost here, you can feel the rough edge in her mouth. She is doing pretty well, considering. She wa up once a couple nights ago, but other than that, she is sleeping great. She shes on her side now that we aren't swaddling her any longer.

Apparently a mosquito or something got to poor Miss Finley, it must be because she is so sweet!

Playgroup Fun and Happy Seven Months!

She is getting so close to her first birthday, how crazy is that?!?!

Here are some cute pics from playgroup. She and Max are quite the darling duo. Finley was pretty fussy during playtime because her bottom left tooth is here! It is just the edge of it so far, but it is definitely here. She has been fussy and upset, poor thing. She seems to be in better spirits today. I wonder when her next tooth will arrive.

Mess!

But a cute mess. I have figured out that if I mix avocado with something else, she will eat them again. Tonight I made a butternut squash and avocado mix. What a disgusting color that is.

We also have been working on using her sippy cup. She can drink from it now, but she much prefers you to hold it for her. She also seems to love to eat the edge of her high chair tray. I guess that is due to teething. I cannot imagine that the old high chair is very tasty.
And some more cute pics, because every mom has to take 100 pictures of her kid in a high chair.

New Pool Toy Fun

Finley was really nervous of her pool float to start. She is used to being held by Clifton or I in the pool. Being away from us was scary for her at first, but once she got used to it, she really seemed to enjoy it. She is still pretty nervous in the water, I hope exposing her often will ease her fears.

This is my favorite of her swimsuits. It has butterflies on it and it was one of the first things I purchased for her last year.
