Today is July 4th 2009. Laura's first Independence Day! We went to my parents house for a BBQ this afternoon. Tonight I am at home with only Laura. (Matt is at the dunes riding his quad) I am making sure that the dogs don't hurt themselves or the house from the firework displays in our neighborhood.
I was afriad that Laura wasn't going to get to see fireworks on her first 4th of July. But thanks to my neighbors that had illegals, we got a front row seat!

This is Laura trying to crawl over Zoe. Does she succeed? Watch and find out!

This is a picture of Laura in our camper

This was Laura's first camping trip! Matt and I went to Florence, OR to ride our quads. Laura had no problem sleeping somewhere other than her crib. She was an exceptional baby. My cousin and her family went also. So Laura had other kids to play with, which she loved!


Laura sure is growing! She is 7.5 months old now. She says mamma and dadda, baby and Hi. She crawls and stands up while holding on to objects. She claps and waves. She loves walking with assistance. Laura is very curious and is getting into everything. She has 2 teeth and more coming.

I have enjoyed watching her grow! She becoming a beautiful, wonderful little girl!

She was kind of crawling before, but mostly it was shuffling and scooting. I figured when she could crawl down the hall, then she is really crawling!

6 months old now, Lauralynn can sit up all by her self. She loves to stand and walk with assistance. She can stand up from a seated position by holding my hands. We had our 6 month well baby check up and she was right on track at 14.5 lbs and 25 inches long.
