7 Months Old!!

Our cutie pie is so much fun and we are loving every minute of it! Every where we go people comment on her big smiles and giggles. It's fun having a happy baby that is mild in temprament. We continue to hope she stays that way =0)

This is on the 17th, just before she went to bed. Look how happy she is =0) She just ate her dinner, messy!

Since we went to the Dr in between months and with work, we didn't get this months stats.

Milestones:

* Addie is able to go from her tummy and sit up all by herself. The first time she did this, she looked up at Joe and I and started to clap. She was pretty proud of herself, and we were too!

*This was also her first time to actually clap. She has been working on that for awhile. She is so fun to watch as she figures out how things work.

* She is a wonderful eater! She has kept up with her appetite from day 1. She still drinks about 32 oz of formula a day. She has been eating 3 solid meals a day, and usually eats a whole container in one sitting. She loves yogurt, sweet potatoes, mixed veggies, chicken or beef with veggies.

This a picture of her eating yogurt for the first time...face covered and spoon fun!

She does not like fruit very much though. Her face puckers up at the tartness of apples especially. LOL, we are working on that...we have tried bananas and peaches too, but it's a no go.

*She is working on crawling. She gets on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth. It seems that eventually she gets further backward then moving forward, but she is working hard.

We spent the week of the Fourth of with my family. We drove down Sunday night and stayed until Saturday. It was fun to see the whole family, especially the Bares. The last time we saw them was for Addie's Baby Blessing.

We went to Bear Lake Tues-Thursday and enjoyed the time on the water. Addie was pretty good during the day. We brought our swing so it helped out a lot. However, she jad a hard time at night. I am not sure if it was because she had vaccinations the Friday before? or if she was teething still? or if she was sick? She woke up like clock work at 2 and 5 am. I felt bad for my family because no doubt she woke them up too. Also we stayed in my Grandma & Grandpa's camper with my mom, so she put up with us as well. But the first night we got home, she slept for over 12 hrs. Phew! We were ready for some regular sleep again. I still need to down load those pictures from my camera.

We spent the Fourth at Arimo and enjoyed the Fireman's breakfast and the Parade. This was Addie's first parade, so I had to have fun and get her an outfit. However, no matter how hard I try, this little girl does not like headbands. She pulls it down over her eyes, nose, mouth, neck...you name it, she puts it there. LOL, it makes me sad because I have made so many headbands/flower clips to only sit there on the stand. Hopefully she will like them when she gets older.

  

Her shirt said "Lil' Fire Cracker". I thought it was pretty cute.

I promise I have a rag over the important parts! She was just so cute I had to take a snap shot.

She LOVES chewing on everything. And everytime I pull out my phone she starts to smile and laugh. I think we have a Diva on our hands!
