Allie Notes

Dear Friends,
Well, I'm 7 months old this week. I know, 'hard to believe'...I've heard my mother say that every day for the past three months. Anyway, I thought I'd let ya know what's been going on. First, I have to tell you, I love this jumpy thing! Rumor has it - my brother never figured it out. Poor guy.
However, this crawling thing is way over-rated. I can get anywhere I need to go by shuffling, rolling, scooting, dragging, and lunging myself forward.One of my new favorite things is this zwieback toast. I love it! It can go anywhere! And I'm really good at getting it in the most unusual places.

Another exciting milestone I've hit - my first TOOTH! I have really enjoyed the funny way it tickles my tongue. This is super fun!

I also hit the 15-pound threshold for my weight. Apparently I'm tall & skinny...although I've seen some recent pictures that show my double chin...I don't know who they're callin' skinny!
Well, it's time for me to take my nap now. So I'll leave you with my new favorite picture of me & my grandpa. So sweet!
Love, Baby Allie

Allie,
Uncle Dan and Aunt Jen think that you're the cutest child ever born on this planet. We also cannot wait to see you in two weeks! If you get bored, send some kisses our way, we miss your sweet face. Love you.

-AJ and UD

PS- When your brother would sit in the jumpy chair, he'd immediately poop. Hope your bowels arent as sensitive.
