Seven month update

Three words: on the move! This little girly is mobile. She has learned to crawl and pull up this month. Life hasn't stopped since! It makes me so happy to see her exploring the world around her and watch her grin as she finds new things. She loves to smile at family and friends, but really has a thing for strangers in the store? I think it is sweet how she makes a stranger smile going through the Target check out line. 

She loves to crawl, pull up, swing, and clap blocks together. She plays well independently, but easily finds her way off the play mat and into something in the room. She is so focused when playing with her toys. She makes a serious face sometimes when she plays that looks like Matt when he focuses on a project. Cute. 

She eats two solid meals per days- breakfast and dinner. She has tried lots and lots of homemade baby foods. This girl likes to eat! She nurses 5x during the day and 1-2x overnight. She is starting to enjoy picking up finger foods recently. We have tried cheerios, puffs, and yogurt melts so far. Yogurt melts and cheerios are favorites. 

We took two trips this past month. To DC with Emily's parents to visit Barbara and Ryan and to the Outer Banks with Matt's extended family. More pictures to come on those trips...
