Happy 7 months, emerson!

Well, baby girl i know I'm late and I forgot your 6 month all together, but that doesn't change how much I love you. You are such a joy and it is so much fun to watch you grow. Your personality is really starting to blossom.





Here is what you have been up to this month:

  • You weigh around 19 pounds, and I am not exactly sure how long you are.  At your 6 month appointment you were 28 inches long(95%).  I think you are going to be a tall girl!!
  • You are wearing a size 3 diaper and 9 month clothing.  You are so long that you have even fit into some 12 month pants!
  • You are still on a great 4 hour schedule.  You get up at 7:30 and you go to bed at 7:30.  You eat anywhere from 6-8 oz.  You are eating solids 3 times a day too.  You pretty much like everything except peas. If you don't like a food you spit it out all over me.  Not fun!
  • You have started sleeping solidly through out the night! Can I get an AMEN!! I don't want to jinx this so I am going to knock on some wood right now. 
  • You have FOUR teeth!! Two on top and two on the bottom.  You worked on those top teeth for about two months and I can tell you are much happier now that they have poked through.
  • You are army crawling like crazy! You will get up on all fours and rock, but you have yet to crawl on all fours.  You get around just fine though, and are quite the trouble maker! You are into everything!! I can't take my eye off you for a second.  You will crawl to an area you know you are not allowed in and will look back at me and smile.  You think it is so funny when I tell you NO. 
  • You really love you doorway jumper, and you get really excited when your sister jumps with you.  Better yet, you love it when she pushes you in it. Thank goodness that thing can't come off, because you really get some air in it! 
  • You are quite vocal now, you have definitely found you voice! You know now that if you want to be heard around here you have to speak up. 
  • You make the funniest noises with your mouth.  You can click, make kissy noises, smack, etc.  We love hearing you do it and get quite the kick out of it. 
  • You are super ticklish on your back, especially when I give you kisses on it. 
  • You are starting to go through that attachment phase.  Whenever I leave the room you really do not like it. 
  • You are such a happy baby!! You are so easy going and are pretty much happy anywhere!!
Emerson, we are so blessed to have you as our daughter.  Our family is complete because of you!! We can't wait to see the girl you are going to grow into!! We love you.
