Sweet baby, you are 7 months old today. Mommy is having a hard time wrapping her head around that. You're closer to a year old then a newborn. Time has been flying by since you got here.
This month you have hit several milestones. You are sitting up like such a big girl. You no longer have to prop yourself up with your hands. You love to sit up! If we try and lean you back in your napnanny or stroller you'll put your elbows back and try and liiiiift your head up, but so far you're unable to sit up on your own. You like to sit on the floor with your toys all around you and play and talk and snort. Yes, snort. You're really into scrunching up your nose and snorting. Sometimes when you're sitting up you fall over and lightly bonk your head, but you let us know immediately that you did not like that. Mommy's having to learn to let you fall and not coddle you. Daddy says you'll never learn how to do things because I'm holding you so much. I can't help it! You're the cutest thing ever!
Speaking of Daddy, you must really be fond of him, because you said your first word this month and it was dada. Dadadadada you would say over and over. Your Daddy loved it. He would answer, " Yes, baby?" I'm pretty positive you'll say mama before long! : )
You have been eating more table foods this month. You get baby food for breakfast and dinner and veggies and fruits at lunch. You love cucumbers! You're getting better at feeding yourself.
You are working really hard at pulling up. You are so close. You pull on my arms and hair and whatever else you can to try and stand up. When you do finally stand up you love to jump! You get a huge smile on your face when you jump. It's so cute, babe!
You have been swimming lots of times now and you really like the water. You like to sit in my lap and splash with your hands at the water. You even got to see the beach for the first time a couple weeks ago. You loved it the first day and would splash around with your hands, but the second day you weren't as big of a fan. I think you were tired and ready for a nap, though.
I feel like you do new things daily. I know that soon you'll be crawling and pulling up and adding more words to your vocabulary. You are so smart and pick things up so well.
I am so proud of you and all you've done this month. You are so precious to me and I love you more then you'll ever know.
Always,
Mommy
