seven months

  dear elizabeth,  what a month this has been for you -- your first trip to the beach and first plane flight! at the end of June, we drove to Bethany Beach, MD, with Nana and Pappy. you did great on the car ride and slept well in the pack and play. and you surprised me by loving to float around in the outdoor pool -- the water felt fairly cool to me despite being heated, and you cry if your bathwater isn't hot enough for you. but you loved to kick your little leggies under the water and i'm sure you were happy just to be with your big sisters!  the day after we got back home, you and i flew out to Seattle for Auntie Kelli's baby shower. we can't wait to meet your new baby cousin when he arrives! you did great on the flights out (connecting through Chicago). on our last return flight (Denver to Pittsburgh), you were fussy for the last hour but finally calmed down after i gave you some Tylenol. and our actual visit with family was so wonderful. you got to meet Uncle John,
