Two Teeth
We are happy to report that M has two teeth! We can just barely see the little white top of both teeth popping through. What a big girl!

Date Night
Over the weekend, Brett and M went on a date. That's right, they ditched me altogether and went to the hockey game by themselves. (Actually, I was chaperoning a junior high dance. Enough said.) I wish I had taken a picture of them before they left! Anyway, they went to the game, saw the second shootout in as many nights, and this time we actually won! M had an enjoyable time (she told me so), and I'm sure she cherished every minute with her dad, as always. What an amazing dad she has!

Baby M - Almost 7 months
Here's the most important post for all of you, I'm sure. Here's what little MP is up to these days:
Eating - She L.O.V.E.S. to eat! Besides formula, M loves sweet potatoes, acorn squash, sweet peas, apple sauce, bananas, peaches, pears, oatmeal, and rice cereal (not at the same time). She really does not like green beans.
Sleeping - With the exception of traveling, M sleeps all night long. She sleeps from 8pm until 6am. We're working on dropping her 10pm feeding.
Playing - M loves her exersaucer. In fact, she will turn in her seat so that she is facing the corner and doesn't even care about us. I guess we're just chopped liver these days! She also enjoys playing on the floor, rolls both ways, and sucks on her big toe. Yum! M also pets Puckett sometimes and is very gentle. We'll see how long that lasts.
M and Dad - Well, there's no denying that she is Daddy's Little Girl. From the minute he walks in after work, she smiles. I even tried an exeriment where I tried the same noises and tricks Brett does. Sure enough, she laughs hysterically when he does it, but looks at me like I'm from another planet when I do. It sure it amazing to see the connection they have, and I just love it! I promise! You can even see that in one picture he has his foot on her and she loves it!
Hair - Yes, I am going to report about her hair. Two weeks ago, we were able to put two pigtails in her hair. So cute! It was so cute, in fact, that Brett even liked them. As long as she doesn't have bows in her hair, he likes it!
Teeth - There is one coming in from the top.
Health - Today, the doctor said, "She has the most beautiful ears I've ever seen!" I don't even care if she says that about all babies! M has a bit of a cold right now, so I took her in to the doctor just to be sure. Yep, just a cold. Hey, I'm a first-timer.

Ski Trip
Also in January, we got to take a ski trip up to Montana. To say I was out-of-shape is an understatement! Anyway, we got to hang out with my mom, Greg, Bryce, Jodi, Lane, Josh, and Jan. We had a lot of fun, but surprisingly, have very few pictures to show. After four days of skiing, we were pooped. Thankfully, Jan was able to spend some quality time with baby M. Jan and Josh even took her snowshoeing one morning!
We typically try to stay vertical while on the slopes, but this trip didn't quite work out that way. There was a hill out the back door that Josh, Brett, and I tried to conquer over the course of two days. Brett and Josh were also nice enough to take me through some powder one afternoon. That resulted in my ski popping off and walking down to the lift. And, as you can see, here's how it worked out for Brett.

Playing Catch Up
I knew it had been quite some time since I had blogged, and I'm not even entirely sure what the hold up was, to be honest. Anyway, we're back from our blogging vacation and ready to share more. Bear with me, as I play catch up.
On New Year's Day, we went snowshoeing with some friends and their little girl. This little hike really proved how out-of-shape we are. M loved her backpack (Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!) and took a snooze while we were out. Happy Belated Anniversary to us!
