Our sweet little girl…

The latest… 7 months and counting!

McCanless is so much fun! She is always smiling, laughing and “talking” to us, and anyone who looks her way. She has 6 teeth and several more about to pop up.

I began teaching again last week and McCanless is staying at a home daycare with 4 other young children. I’m teaching part-time, so she is only there from 8-12 everyday, but she loves it. She really enjoys the other children and is always so excited to see them. Mel takes her every morning and I pick her up…it is working out well for all of us.

She hasn’t started crawling yet, but is very independent and wants to go…constantly! (such a busy-body) She has begun to pull up, and still prefers to be standing or sitting rather than on her belly…who knows if she will ever crawl?!!

I swear she called out “ma-ma” recently, but Mel thinks I’m crazy. She still “sings” often (which is a high pitched squeel) and laughs at herself when she does so. Usually she “sings” in restaurants, the grocery store and church…
what fun!
