Lily- 7 Months!

Lily is 7 months! (yesterday..)

She is getting more and more mobile and will not hold still for a picture for the life of her! She always wanted to grab something and eat it or roll over and crawl away. Month pictures are getting so hard!




-Lily is officially crawling everywhere! She started crawling a few weeks ago but would mostly scoot. She has moved onto crawling. She follows me all around. She loves to crawl into the bathroom and eat Akoy's stool that he stands on. (and not that clean with a dripping boy). It drives me crazy!
-She eats baby food 3 times a day. Usually cereal in the morning. Her favorites are banana's and sweet potatoes. I gave her baby oatmeal for the first time today and she devoured it! Usually rice cereal was a little struggle to get down her.
-Only nurses before bedtime and naps and at night. Finally a schedule!
-Sleeps 7:30-7:30. Still wakes up 1-2 times a night. I need to stop that. 
-2 naps a day. Morning is usually and hour and then afternoon is about 1-2 hours. Sometimes a cat nap before bed.
-She is starting to use her hands more and put star puffs in her mouth. She also likes chewing on Akoy's crackers.
-Her favorite game is to crawl on Akoy. He then laughs and says: "Lily is crawling on me" It is super cute when he says stuff to her. Usually it is "Lily, please don't eat my____"
-Sits up on her own. I find her sitting up all the time in her crib.
-Gives me kisses after I give her them.
-Recognizes her own name when we say it.
-She is starting to be obsessed with Akoy's soccer ball. Akoy had this same fascination at the same age. She has been constantly holding it. It must be the colors.
 -Plays independently really well. I just stick her in front of toys and it will occupy her while I get things done.
-She has fallen asleep on a couple people recently. She loves to cuddle. Especially if you scratch her back. She still prefers to sleep in her crib though.
-Her favorite person is Akoy. Loves him to death and loves to play with him.

Gosh I can't believe she's crawling! What a big girl! I try to tell myself Jack will do it when he's ready but gosh, he's 8 months and not even interested. If it's not walking, he doesn't want to do it! Lily is such a beautiful little girl but I've probably told you that so many times. You have such a darling family!
