DARWIN is on his 12th year of teaching, currently at Springville High School teaching astronomy, geology, environmental science, and physics. He also teaches physics at UVU for a 7 week STEM summer school program for junior high students. He also teaches teenagers in our church ward. He's super busy, but still makes time to be an awesome dad and husband.
Our Sweet Savannah is 7 months! She's the sweetest little thing you'll ever meet, and she brings such happiness into our home. Man! We sure love this little girl!
At SEVEN months:
-Her first tooth poked through on Tuesday, right at 7 months old!
-She's becoming a pro at sitting, and can usually get down to her tummy pretty gracefully. She still gets bumps sometimes, but she really does pretty well.
-She definitely prefers sitting over laying down but she'll end up on the ground sometimes because Aurora mostly gently tackles her and makes her lay down. It's not Savannah's favorite thing to get tackled by her sister.
-We've started giving her gerber puff snacks and she does pretty well with them.
-She really likes to munch on bananas or apples through her mesh food holder thing (see pictures below).
-We think she's going to be our shy one. She gets really shy sometimes when anyone looks at her or talks to her (including us). It's pretty cute.
-She's starting to get some stranger-danger and prefers for me to hold her over anyone else--but she likes Daddy okay too :)
-She just started doing a really cute bobble with her head this week. It's hard to describe, but she kind of bounces her head back and forth like she's dancing or something. I just about die every time I see her do it. It's stinking cute! I hope I can catch it on our video camera.
-She has really improved with sleeping completely through the night in the last month. It's pretty rare when she wakes up in the middle of the night anymore.
-On top of kicking her legs a ton when she's happy she does a really high pitched squeal. She's such a happy girl, so we get that a lot :)
-She's a rolly-poley on the changing table, and we have a few items stashed there for her to grab and hold onto, otherwise she just keeps trying to turn and roll over while we're changing her diaper.
-I weighed her at our doctor's office yesterday and she's up to 19 pounds!
-She definitely recognizes her name and will turn to us when we say it.
-She has added "ba-ba" and "ya-ya" to her babbling vocabulary.
-She's starting to blow raspberries and make other fun noises with her mouth and she thinks she's pretty funny and awesome that she can do it.
-She LOVES jewelry! I can't put any jewelry on without her grabbing at it and trying to eat it. I have to be really careful with earrings.
-She likes to suck on tags and silky things.
-She's already hooked on electronics--when we let her get her hands on them--that doesn't happen very often.
-She also loves to pull my hair a lot lately. Especially when she's nursing. Stinker.
-She doesn't seem interested in learning to crawl yet, but she's a pro at rolling and rolls all over the place!

Munching on some apples
Playing under the coffee table
And, as always, lots of pictures of her monthly photo shoot because she's so cute and kind of a goof sometimes :)
It cracks me up when she sucks on her top lip--she does it sometimes when she's eating too
Silly girl--she wasn't very cooperative this time
Our little lady
Happy 7 months, Savy!
