I can't believe that my sweet girl is already 7 months old! (I know I say this every month, but seriously, time goes by way too quickly!)
Here are some things that Lara is doing at 7 months:
* She is can go from sitting to crawling (has been able to for a while) and now from crawling to sitting to standing! She enjoys going wherever she wants now, but gets frustrated when she can't quite get to something!
* She is pretty much done with the army crawl now, and crawls (very quickly) on her hands and knees or hands and feet, depending on what kind of surface she's on.
* Lara is pulling up on EVERYTHING! The babyproofing has officially begun. (Why is it that in a room full of toys she seems to like electrical cords, the laptop and anything breakable more?!)
* We moved her matress down because she was pulling up so much and attempting to use the bumper in her bed as a step to get over...
* She has started letting go of whatever she is holding on to and standing solo for short amounts of time (10-15 seconds)
* We bought her some more age appropriate toys for her 7 month birthday! Things that have lots of buttons and light up and play music! She LOVES them! Maybe she'll stay away from the remote now....
* We are trying to do solid food one time a day now (usually at our dinner time), but don't stress if we don't get to it! She has now tried avocado, banana, rice cereal, and sweet potato. She is not thrilled with any of them except for avocados... Hey, it's supposed to be brain food right? And at least it's green! :-)
* She has started playing peek-a-boo herself now! She'll raise something over her head and wait for us to say, "Where's Lara?" Then she'll pull it down and have the biggest grin on her face! Precious!
* She still says Da-da and Ba-ba ALL the time :-) Love it!
* She moved up to the next class at school (Normally they don't move until they are 1, but they felt like she was ready... I'm a little nervous about it, but I think she'll really enjoy having more toys to climb on, getting to go outside, and getting to participate in water days!)
* Lara is still sleeping great at night, although she has discovered that standing in the bed is much more fun that going to sleep... so this is proving to make bedtime (and naptimes) a little more difficult!
* We made our first LONG road trip to Texas and had a great time! She sure is a great traveler! Thank goodness!
* Still no teeth! But, she is definitely working on it!
* We don't go to the doc until 9 months again, so we won't have any more height/weight checks until then! She is definitely still growing though!
Wow! I can't believe how much she has learned this month! Crazy how quickly she learns now! I just love watching her discover new things! :-)
I'll post her 7 month pictures soon, plus pics from July 4th and our Texas adventure! So stay tuned!
