seven months.

Mondays are ridiculously crazy for me (between taking Dallas to "school" and going to help out the crafts group at church)...so I didn't get a chance to post all about baby girl turning seven months old. While it's hard for me to fathom yet another month of her life going by, it also feels like she's been here with us forever. October seems like another lifetime ago. Last year at this time I was: 16 weeks pregnant, Hubs and I were still living with his parents until we closed on our house, and we had yet to find out that S was a precious little girl. How a year can change life! I'm loving every minute of it.

Here's what you've been up to recently...

- You've been a master at sitting for almost two months! No more toppling over.
- Crawling is in the near future for us (whether mommy is ready or not). You figured out how to get on your hands, but it's just those stubborn knees! Keep practicing, mommy loves watching you learn.
- You're pretty good at scooting around on that lil butt of yours.
- Toys are all the rage around here. You are content just sitting on your blanket surrounded by things to touch, grab, and drool over. A big thanks for letting mommy get things done around the house (for the most part)!
- Your favorite toy is your stacking cups. But you also love you some water bottles and nasal aspirators.
- You've graduated to your big girl crib! Naps, you are amazing. Nighttime, you're getting there. It doesn't matter that you always end up in mommy and daddy's bed by the morning. It's a whole lot softer and warmer! And we kinda like it :)
- You love to be outside and you love grass!
- Solids are not your thing at the moment. You'd rather get your meals from mommy and I think that's just fine. We'll keep trying different fruits and veggies until you get the hang of it. The food that you don't spit out the most? Bananas.
- You're getting brave and like to pull up onto your knees while holding onto the bumper or railing of your crib. Daddy is going to have to lower the mattress soon!
- You are learning how to wave! Yesterday, the ladies at crafts had you waving like a pro.
- You're a smart one, ready to experiment with the world. And you're personality is just like daddy's.

Baby girl, mommy and daddy love you! You are amaze us every day.
