Cailin got to visit with her Great Grandma this past weekend while Mama & Daddy celebrated their anniversary. Her Nana, Poopah, and great aunts Linda and Carol also came over for a visit.

Cailin has been practicing standing a lot lately. She has gotten to where she can hold herself up if we put her hands on the coffee table. She just doesn't realize that she'll fall if she lets go and just knows that Mama will be there to catch her.

Cailin, Maggie, and Hudson had their playdate again last week and got to have lunch with all the girls from Lexicon. Cailin kept trying to smooch Magnolia though. I think she gets tired of slobbering on her own face all the time and thought she would try someone else's.

But they had fun rolling on the floor together

She likes to help me cook sometimes so I gave her a spatula to chew on

She got tired of playing in her playpen while I cooked so I brought her in the kitchen with me. She was so happy to sit there and watch me or the TV and chew on spoons or whatever else I gave her.

We went to visit our friends Morgan and Chris this weekend so Cailin had a chance to see them again, it had been a while. Hopefully they'll give Cailin someone to play with soon, wink wink. :)

Cailin will have a new playmate when she gets older since we've added another member to our family. Toby is an Australian Kelpie we rescued from a shelter. He's already become best friends with Bailey and Cailin enjoys trying to grab them when they walk by and they enjoy licking the spitup off her shirt or directly out of her mouth, mmmmm.







Cailin got to have her first playdate with her boyfriend Hudson last week. Her, Maggie and Hudson went to Mindy's neighborhood pool and played. They all had a lot of fun and wore themselves out. Hudson wanted so bad to play in the jumperoo and couldn't understand why he wasn't allowed to.

Cailin's Nana and Poopah came to visit on Sunday to celebrate Jeff's first Father's Day. Cailin was all giggles and had a lot to tell Nana apparently.

Later in the day, after Daddy finished golfing, we all went and played at our neighborhood pool, then enjoyed playing with Nana's new puppy and cooking on the grill. Cailin got to spend some good quality time with her Daddy and got lots of smooches.

Those cheeks are irresistable!

Monday, Cailin had her 6 month checkup at the doctor, even though she's almost 8 months now (Mama a procrastinator : ) ) She is 15 lbs and 25 inches long! The doctor said that she is definitely teething and her first little chompers should be popping through any time now. I guess her cute, toothless grin will soon be gone forever. She's setting up better and better each week and scoots around on her belly so crawling won't be too far behind now.

Today was very exciting, Cailin rolled over from her back to her belly while she was supposed to be taking a nap. I guess her plan worked because as soon as I saw her I ran in there with excitement and she got to get up early. Oh well, it's worth it for such a big milestone! She was all smiles and giggles but probably had no idea what she had just done. My little puddin' pop is getting so big.

We have had a really fun weekend. On Saturday we went to a different pool in The Woodlands and it was amazing. There were a ton of kids and really elaborate water slides. We had fun splashing in the shallow end and splashing Daddy in the face : ) She was looking super cute in her matching swim suit and hat. That night Nana and Poopah came over to hang out with Cailin while Mama and Daddy had dinner and a movie. On Sunday we went to dog park and played with all the puppies then spent the rest of the day relaxing around the house.





Cailin loves her acrobatics! It's a little hard to see in the video but she loves being flipped upside down. I think she's getting ready for her career as a gymnast...that or she'll just be really good at keg stands : )

We were hoping to get a really good video of her making a disgusted face the first time we fed her green beans and have something funny we could send into America's Funniest Videos...

...I guess not. She has pretty much eaten every food we've put in her mouth so far. I guess we'll just have to rely on her hitting Daddy in the balls one day so we can make it on TV : )
