7 Months

Carly Kate you are 7 months old today! You are sitting up all by yourself now.  You are the happiest little girl!  Yep, you are STILL in the bassinet beside of Mommy and Daddy's bed, you would think you would've out grown it by now, but there's still plenty of room in it.  Mommy read in the pediatricians office that the safest place for a baby til they are 1 is in the parents bedroom in their own bed. HA! So, that's my excuse;) I've been trying to get you on somewhat of a schedule these days. You are usually awake at 8 to have a bottle and take a nap around 9 for an hour or so. You are mastering fruits still for your snacks and so far so good.  I've got to get you used to your high chair because you are such a squirmer in it and sometimes refuse to eat in it.  You are all about play time.  You love sitting up and playing with toys that rattle or light up.  You will grab anything that is near you.  Christmas will be so much fun! You also have discovered my hair, which is lovely at times when you aren't trying to pull it out of my head. You usually take 2 more naps, one after lunch and then a short evening one before nite nite time around 9. This is my most favorite age thus far! Everyone says I will keep saying that as you continue to grow but I just think you are the most adorable, hugable, lovable little girl ever! I thank God every day for letting me be your Mommy!
