7 Months

Dear Aly,

Happy 7 Months! You have made a lot of progress since last month. You have started eating solids several times a week. So far you have tried oatmeal, sweet potato, peas, apples and avocado. You really like applesauce. We feed you in your swing since you are too small for the high chair. You like it but you spend a lot of time trying to eat the toys instead of your food. You have recently started rolling over and we find you on your tummy in the mornings a lot. Maybe you will be a tummy sleeper like your dad. You weigh 13 lbs 14 oz and you are 25.5 inches long. You are still in size 2 diapers. You are still our little princess. You have been sleeping pretty well at night. You sleep through about once a week and you still get up early even on weekends. We will have to teach you to sleep in. You can sit up by yourself but you prefer to be held or to sit in the bumbo. You love to giggle and laugh at us. You still nap best in your car seat on a long walk. You love to grab at the cats and we try our best to teach you how to pet nicely. You are very curious about everything and when we go out to dinner you try to touch our food our silverware and anything else that comes by. You went to Tepanyaki for Grandpa Sam's birthday and you loved watching the chef make our food on the grill.

You are such a cute sweet little girl.

We love you more every day!
