Where has the time gone? Our little chubster is 7 months old today! This has been a really fun month with her now that she can sit on her own and has been eating solids like a champ. Here are some highlights:

1. Sat in a highchair, shopping cart, and a swing for the first time.
2. Rolled from her back to her tummy.
3. Had her first Halloween and dressed up as an elephant (and had a twin too!)
4. Tasted apple, carrot, butternut squash, cauliflower, pears, turkey, avocado, and plum.
5. Started eating and self-feeding puffs!
6. Started holding and drinking from a straw cup.
7. Has been vocalizing more with a variety of sounds: ma, na, la, ga, mm, da, e, o, a, and lots of raspberries and squeals.
8. Learned how to lean over and crane her neck to get a better look at something (usually around something blocking her view).
9. Started going to the Children’s Creative Museum and Story/Song Time at the library with Mirian.
10. Found her feet and can grab them while she’s on her back.
11. Started standing in a bouncer and goes CRAZY!!
12. Sleep has been not as consistent with her but she still sleeps at least 7-8 hours straight most nights.

Phew! This was a really big month of milestones and new experiences! I also weighed her this evening and she’s a whopping 20 lbs, 13 ounces now. She’s wearing 9-month, 12-month, and 12-18 month clothes and moved up to Size 3 diapers too.

It’s been so much fun to watch you grow and learn, Baby Girl! Happy 7 Months!! We love you so very much!
