Our little lady is 7 months old! We are having fun getting to know her personality as she grows and shows herself more. I'm not sure how much she weighs since there is no appointment for this month and thankfully she hasn't been sick for me to take her to Dr. B. But she is eating well.
This past month has been a big one for her physical development: she started sitting up on her own without support, and can get to a seated position on her own. She is practicing her crawling a lot when she's on the floor.
Praise God for such a sweet smile! She's known around here for her insanely huge grin.
She is eating 5-6 ounces every 4 hours during the day, and 3-4 ounces anywhere between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. She takes her Prevacid in the middle of the night bottle. She is eating 3 solid meals a day, including prunes, apples, bananas, pears, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, green beans, peas, and oatmeal. Sometimes she eats a lot, and sometimes hardly anything. Sometimes we skip a meal altogether if we're busy. Not too committed to the solid meals yet.
She gets mad when something gets taken away from her (screaming mad), and she gets really frustrated when she can't get her sippy cup to do what she wants. She loves her pacifiers but for the most part only uses them when in the crib or when it's close to naptime and she's tired. She has sensitive skin, and although we still haven't had any diaper rash problems, she can't seem to get rid of a rash on her neck. The area around her mouth stays chapped and red, too. :(
"Mom, I am way too cool to participate in this photo shoot"I'm trying to keep her napping around 9 and 1, but it doesn't always work out because of waking early. She takes the 3rd afternoon cat nap most of the time, but on some days we skip it and just put her to bed a little earlier, depending on what time she wakes up from the 2nd nap. She goes to bed anytime between 6:30 and 7.
She isn't crazy about being read to, because all she wants to do is eat the book.
She loves her Daddy! He can make her grin the biggest. She also loves other babies and is very smiley with them.
She is patient with Vivian when she wants to give Kate a hug, that turns into a headlock or laying on top of her.
We love you, little mom!
