7 Months!!

Morgan is 16 lbs 8.5 ounces now and sitting up very well on her own. She's almost crawling but still needs to figure out how to lift her chest up and pull her knees under her at the same time. She does both of those things independently now. I know its just a matter of time til she figures it out and when she does she'll be a movin! We had our first round of sickness last week. She had her first cold. It was so sad to see her feeling crappy, but now she's all better and I'm totally relieved. There were a number of long sleepless nights because she was so stuffy she couldn't sleep or eat or stop crying! Ugh it was awful!! What made it worse was the fact that I was sick too and her daddy was on a business trip. It was definitely our toughest week yet! Glad its over!

Other than our bought with illness things are great. She's a busy girl who loves her toys and lots of attention. She's also very vocal. She loves to make all her sounds at full volume...even when we're grocery shopping. She's definitely living up to her Leo spirit and is anything but a wall flower! She is determined  for everyone to notice her. haha...oh boy!! She's gonna be a handful when she's a toddler!!!

She's eating all the vegetables and fruits now. Also she likes Mum Mum crackers and little puffs. She's getting pretty good at feeding herself. I put lil' biscuits and frozen banana chunks and apple slices in her munchkin food pouch so she can chew on those and she LOVES it! She still doesn't have any teeth and doesn't show any signs of one coming, but that doesn't stop her from munching on anything I let her get her hands on. She definitely likes to eat! This month I plan to introduce some meat and yogurt.

She's sitting up in restaurant high chairs and shopping carts all by herself (with her floppy seat cover of course) and she loves being able to see whats going on! She laughs and smiles a lot and it feels like she's turning into a little girl. She's definitely still a baby, but her personality is developing so quickly!! We love our little miracle so much!!!


And she's got lots of little buddies!!!

(This was the moment she got her first cold!!!)
