Allie Mae- 7 months old

Sweet Allie Mae.

You are now just over 7 months old.

It's so hard to believe how fast you are growing and changing.

How much you are learning.

How much you are a joy to our lives.

I haven't been very good at updating the blog.

It's been a little busy with 2 of you munchkins.

And the flood of course.

But I've been taking lots of pictures of you!

You are eating well. 

14 pounds and 8 ounces at our last doctor visit.

And you've loved that you've started solid foods!

You love to chow on whatever you can get your hands on and will try anything.

We are doing baby-led weaning with you.

I think it's one of your favorite activities.

You definitely don't want to be left out if the rest of us are eating.

You are also sleeping well.

You had a "regression" around 4 months.

But other than that you've slept through the night except when you've been sick.

It is a great gift that you've given your mama.

I love that you love to sleep!

As far as other activities you're playing hard now.

You love to army crawl.

You're *so* close to crawling on all fours.

I've seen you do it a couple of times but it's not consistent.

You also love to be with your brother.

Any of his toys are your favorite toys.

And of course he'll always tell me when you start to eat them.

I can tell that he loves you and he's trying hard to take care of you.

It's adorable to see how you two are together.

I believe sharing a room with him is one of the reasons you sleep so well.

You are joyful and happy (almost) all the time.

Your smile lights up a room.

You're silly.

You love to laugh.

You love to babble and talk.

You're so curious of the world around you.

You really seem to take it all in.

You are loving and affectionate.

You are my sweet, beautiful girl.

And i love you like crazy!

Mama
