7 Months Old!

I know I'm VERY late in posting this but Allie is now 7 Months Old. Is it just me or does 7 seem SOOOOOOO much older than 6? I can't believe it. She's inching closer to 1 as we speak.


She's become very active this month. She claps and waves all.the.time now and loves to babble. Her words of choice thus far are Da-da (dad), da (dog), Da-da (I know she really means ma-ma), eehhh (yay) and I swear she said something resembling good job the other day. She has also started dancing. Every morning when Ellen dances on her TV show, Allie will stop dead in her tracks and start dancing. When the music stops, she claps. It is hilarious. The kid loves music and dancing.

She has become a champion sleeper most days and seems to love sleeping in her own room. She has mastered the pincher grasp to feed herself and we're slowly working up to more table foods. She LOVES puffs (little flavored rice puffs, similar to cheerios) and can eat them all by herself. So far she loves every food we've tried with the exception of avocado and blueberries. She's not a fan of those at all. She really seems to enjoy emptying a basket of toys over and over again rather than playing with one at a time and loves to swing, especially when Daddy counts to 3.

Perhaps the biggest advancement this month is that she's on the verge of crawling! She gets up on her knees and pushes her head against the ground to get where she wants to go. Hopefully she'll figure out how to use her arms soon or her face is going to get sore.









Why do you take so many pictures Mom?
She's so much fun and I can't believe she's 7 months old. My little baby is growing up! Happy 7 Months Alligator! Mommy and Daddy love you!
