7 months old today

Eating real food

My Mommy spent a couple of days making me homeade food. Yum Yum! So far I've tried carrots, yellow squash, potatoes, apples & avacado...oh yeah & sweet potatoes, but I thought they were yucky!

Saturday in KS & MO

Today was such a beautiful July day. It was 70 degrees! What a nice change after all of the hot days we have been having. Larry & I have been eating healthy & working out hard all week, so today was a free fun day. Since the weather was nice we decided to take Skylar & Taz on a hike in MO. Little did we know it was a 3 mile hike with lots of hills...so much for a day off from exercise! The trail was deep in the woods but it was paved. We were at the last 1/4 mile when we saw a 2 ft snake in the middle of our path. He was laying so still that we thought he was dead. Larry tossed an empty water bottle at him & he didn't move. We decided to try to carefully walk around him. He slowly moved across the path & into the woods. When we got home we looked him up on google & he looked like the most common venomous snake in MO.. the copperhead! Glad we didn't make him mad. After we had a great dinner at home (thanks Lar) we went outside on our front porch & watched a beautiful 1/2 hour fireworks display to celebrate Amelia Earhart's birthday. Skylar loved the display & couldn't stop staring. At the loudest part, the finale, she fell asleep!

Daddy's little southern belle

Skylar got this adorable outfit from Uncle Roy & Aunt Claudia in TN.

Uh Oh

Skylar was jumping away in her jumparoo & then...uh oh! I noticed she pooped on the persian rug! You all know how Larry feels about this subject. I hope he doesn't make me get rid of the rug! Skylar doesn't care, she is just smiling away!

Just for fun

Can you believe Skylar has already been through 9 states before the age of 6 months! VA, West Virginia, IND, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas, TN, & Colorado. She has already walked along the beach & hiked in the mountains.

How cute
