7 months

Our sweet little baby has been 7 months old for a week or so.

We still love and adore every bit of her, she is a great baby.

Her hair is growing and getting thicker, but the back stands up all the time and is especially noticeable with light shining on her, as in this picture.

She loves playing with toys, or anything else she can get her hands on, and HAS to be eating/gnawing/tasting on things at all times.......yet still no teeth in that little mouth.

This past week she started wearing 6-9 month clothes and wearing size 3 diapers.

She loves to watch her sisters and play beside them.
She still shares laughs only very sparingly, if you get a laugh out of her you are lucky!
She seems to be getting more leery of strangers and having some attachments to Mom.

She takes an hour nap in the morning and several hours in the afternoon and goes to bed at 7pm.
This past week she hasn't been waking up in the night until 4:30ish when she is ready to eat, we were playing the put-the-paci-back-in game several times in the night.

She has started eating the Gerber puffs and seems to like food only if it is in the net thing.  She does not like anything fed to her on a spoon.  She does also drink water from a sippy with meals, which she has been doing for a month.

No crawling yet, but she does move herself on the floor using mostly her toes to push herself along.


We still have people tell us, almost daily, how much she looks like Ashlee.  Looking back at pictures I can see it, however I think she looks more like Ashlee did at about a year old.
