Happy 7 Months Miss B!!!!

Miss B, 

I can't believe we are here so soon... and yet it feels like FOREVER ago that you were in my belly and we were headed to the "Big Buiwlding" to entice you to come out... Obviously most recently we have been just trying to survive after finding out about Daddy's boo-boo in his belly but I am praying with everything that I have that the ONLY reason you even KNOW about this time in your life is when you go back to read about it... 

You did so well sitting and waiting for Daddy to come out of surgery. Everyone said so. I was looking at your sister's 7 Month Post  and it seems you BOTH spent 5 days away from your Daddy... even though you were able to SEE him, it wasn't quite the same as having him home with you. You also had your first "professional" photo shoot and you did GREAT my smiley girl! 

At 7 months Miss B, you love to sit on the floor and play with your toys ~ you are still a bit tippy but you are getting stronger everyday. You enjoy scooting around the kitchen in your walker and spending time standing in the excesaucer. You can roll to your belly like nobodies business and once there you can spin around. You have most recently started TRYING to get up on your knees and pushing way up on your arms. You'll be crawling in NO time at all. Your favorite toy has to be a triangle thing that has all kinds of beads, colors and things that make noise on it that you got from "Aunnie" for Christmas. BUT BY FAR you love it if someone will sit in the same room with you and entertain you. Thank goodness for big sisters ;)

 

JUST like your big sister you LOVE bath time and all things water. H.O. and I got a giggle at Minnie's swimming lesson because it looked like YOU wanted to jump in too!

You are wearing mostly size 9 months across the board but bottoms are a little short and too big in the waist  :) My girls are long and lean :) I have NO idea what size shoe you are in... we NEVER wear them :) You are in size 2 dipes and we have had SUCCESS with YOU in cloth! Your big sister was WAY too sensitive for them but you seem a bit "tougher" :) and when we are home we try to have you in them. 

So far you have had avocado, sweet potato, all KINDS of fruits ~ pears, blueberries, apples, raspberries, prunes, mango  apricots and all kinds of different combos! You LOVE eating "puffs" all by yourself in your high chair and you do REALLY well getting them to your mouth. I think you'll be right handed by how well you do with that hand. The pictures at the top are the first time you had a whole (cooked) blueberry, straight from one of Mommy's homemade muffins. You LOVED it! Nana (CountryMum) made one of her "famous" fruit salads to help Daddy feel better and I cut up fresh raspberry and blueberry into teenie tiny pieces (on bath night :) and you thought you were SUCH a big girl! Now... if ONLY we can get you to sleep. You don't fight it quite like your sister but you ARE up A LOT in the night and OFTEN days in a row. You typically have 2-3 naps during the day with the afternoon one being your longest. You are the HAPPIEST baby Miss B but trust me... sleep would make BOTH of us even THAT.MUCH.HAPPIER :) You are still most definitely a Mama's girl and as "Yiz" said my "new accessory" :)

You are SUCH a perfect addition to our little family Miss B! A few short weeks and we'll be outside, you'll be enjoying all the "Big" track girls, GiGi (GA) will be coming home to play with you and it will be SUMMER!!!! Take your time getting big my love... we sure don't mind having a baby around ;)

We love you sweet girl! Daddy, Mommy and Big Sister
