Okay seriously these months have got to slow down! Our precious baby girl has hit the 7 month mark and that means her 1st birthday is creeping up on us! Until then we are taking it a day at a time and enjoying everything about her. Lets see what has she accomplished up until now.....lots! I think this is by far the most she has learned in a months time. She went from being dependent on us to being little Ms. Independent over night! She sit's all by herself, she even figured out how to scoot on her butt to get her to where she wants to go! As for crawling, she has learned how to get on her knees and bounce, but hasn't quite figured out how to crawl forward, instead she creep crawls in circles. She squeals when she is excited and flaps her arms. She can smacks her lips and clicks her tongue. She has two teeth that show when she smiles and giggles. These days she smiles and laughs at anything that makes music or if she sees anybody she recognizes like Nana, daddy, Hope her dog, etc. She drinks 4-6oz every 3 hours and eats breakfast, lunch and dinner! We are still sleep training her but usually she sleeps from 8pm till 4am, drinks a bottle, then sleeps another four hours till 8am. She has two naps during the day (thank God b/c that's when mommy gets things done) and overall is a happy baby! We go to the Pflugerville library on Mondays and the Round Rock library on Thursdays for baby time, its where babies between the ages on birth to 12 months sing, dance, exercise and play! She loves it because she gets to play and see other babies her age, and mommy likes it b/c she gets to have adult conversations with other mommies! We also go to free events that include music class, shows, and interactions. This month is a busy month for us, we are celebrating Grandparents Day by making cards (as seen on picture above), and it's the start of football season! She still enjoys bath time every night before bed time and has out grown her infant bath...so tonight we are going to try her out in the big tub! Bath time is daddy time with her, so I will let him speak about his experiences with her...he's a little sad that she has outgrown her infant tub, he has so many memories of her in it! Daddy works hard and does side jobs so any time he gets with her is precious time and they have a lot of fun! The Texas heat is finally subsiding so we can do more things outdoors. Bella loves being outside so we plan to start going for jogs in her jogging stroller that Grandpa David bought for us. Mommy and Daddy took a weekend trip to Colorado last weekend and fell in love with the outdoors and life style there...our plan is to one day move there! It's a wonderful place to raise a family and lots to do. Well I wish I had more time to write but I have valuable time to spend with my family....Happy 7 months to all of you, I hope its been enjoyable just as it has been for us!
