our seventh month

hard to believe, but on march 29, perry turned 7 months old.

(if my dad was still here, she would have shared this special day with him -

it would have been his 53rd birthday!)

we are nearing perry's 8th month of life but it wouldn't be my true fashion if i was on time with this post.

so with that being said...

happy 7 months darling girl!

you are so big. almost every day, your daddy and i look at one another and talk about how much you are growing.

you are such a little mover! you are rolling all over the place.

you are sitting up on your own.

you aren't crawling yet but we know it won't be too much longer!

you are such a little giggle box. you laugh at every funny thing we do. once you start laughing, you can't stop! it's hilarious.

you scrunch up your nose and make the funniest sounds. 

and you like to whisper little sounds. so sweet!

you are continuing to become more assertive. you watch people with your big blue eyes and i can't wait until you can tell us what you are thinking.

you love to eat:!

your favorites are sweet peas, pears, bananas, sweet potatoes, asparagus, green beans, prunes and pretty much anything we put in front of you. you love your veggies like your daddy. you also eat a LOT! you are still nursing 5 times a day and eat 3 very large meals of solids. it's so fun to try new things!

 we are also pretty sure you are teething. lately, you have been up a few times during the night and you seem very uncomfortable.

i know those little pearlies will burst through very soon! 

you still enjoy your bath;

you are going to sleep MUCH easier;

straight to the bed you go at 7 on the dot and almost every night you go straight to sleep;

you also love reading and you enjoy watching and "talking" to other babies and children;

you are growing out of your 3 month clothing and you are mostly wearing 6 & 9 months;

you are taking 1 or 2 naps a day, and we aren't on any type of schedule at all!

we tried many times to establish a schedule but you weren't having it.

it was hard for me to accept but we do what works for us!

love you little girl, more and more every day!
