CRAWLING!!!Sally is now 7 months old. This morning she started crawling!!! She has been doing the army crawl for a few days, but this morning she crawled across the floor twice! She crawled three or four steps to Ted and then she did it again to get my phone. She's not crawling everywhere yet, but she sure is on her way!! I did the best I could with pictures, but they don't do it justice-- I just love the determined look she gets on her sweet face.
A few specifics about our 7 month old princess:
- she has 2 teeth now! She got her 2 bottom teeth about 2 1/2 weeks ago. Teething brought some sleepless nights, but all-in-all, it wasn't so bad...we love teething tablets!
- she loves to eat! so far she's had: sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, green beans, peas, applesauce, pears, prunes, bananas, and avocado. She loves rice cereal and oatmeal. She loves green beans now too!
- she loves puffs! My mom started giving them to her last week and now she's addicted! She is so good at getting them in her mouth. We had to buy some puffs and eat them as we went through Target the other day. I tried a little shopping trip a little too close to feeding time...but the puffs did the trick- she was happy as a clam!
- she copies a chewing motion and then cracks up laughing. (I'm working on getting this on video)
- my mom also taught her the "bad cough" game...Nana coughs and asks Sally if she has a bad cough and Sally answers her with a "cough." Hilarious!
- she's getting to be a much better sleeper...we've been doing some "sleep training" the last few nights and she is doing much much better. She still goes to bed very peacefully and she is making it until almost 4 am until she needs a snack. Progress, people, progress!
- she "sings" while her daddy plays the piano for her. Beauty and the Beast is her favorite song.
- she is quite the stinker during our playdates...she regularly takes toys from her friend, Andrew. It usually makes him pretty mad (understandable!!) so we nicely give it back to him and replace it with another toy...we're working on sharing!
-she's still a giggle box....one of my most favorite sounds in the world!
I can't believe that she is already 7 months old...and she is the absolute light of my life...I could never have imagined the blessing of this little princess.
