7 Months

Aubrey you are seven months old! You are changing so fast and seem to get cuter by the day. You are such a sweet and easy baby. Your teachers in the church nursery always comment on how happy and content you are.

You weigh 14lb 15oz and are 26 inches long. Which puts you in the 20% in weight and 50% in height.
You love to suck on your thumb. You suck on your right thumb, hook your index finger over your nose, and rub the back of your head with your left hand. At first I didn't like the idea of a thumb sucker but this time around I have realized that the small things aren't worth fussing over. Besides, you look so darn cute doing it!

You are busy! You love to squirm and wiggle. Which made it harder to take your monthly picture this time. You have also started to do a little dance. I'm sure you and Ashlyn will spend many hours dancing around the house once you are up on your feet.

You are getting your first two bottom teeth. You have been working on them about a week and they are so close to breaking through. We will all be happier around here once they do. Poor baby, you have had such a rough time.

You had your first ear infection and antibiotics. The same time your two little teeth are coming in!
You are a good eater. You are nursing four times a day and eating three solid meals. You love oatmeal, but it must have fruit in it, preferably apple sauce. You love all your fruits but only care for green veggies. You give me the funniest looks when you have to eat orange vegetables.

You still love jewelry and hair. You especially love Ashlyn's because it is much easier to get to since it is longer and she is always in your face playing with you. You like to rub your hair when you suck your thumb and nurse. You also like to play with Daddy's goatee.

You are sitting up by yourself for long periods of time. You love being able to look around while you play.
You are still a good sleeper. You take two 1 1/2 to 2 hour naps and sleep from 7pm to 7am.

You are so special to us! We can't imagine what our life would be like without you!
