7 Months

My darling Kaylee ~

I truly can not believe that 7 months have passed so quickly. As much as I wish we could make this adorable baby stage last forever, the best parts of my day are seeing all the new things you are learning and doing. You are my joy.

Your new favorite thing is food. Daddy and I feel guilty any time we eat in front of you! We just know that you can't wait until you get to try everything that we're eating. For now, though, you love your baby food. We started some fruits this month, and you just love them! You've been eating a 1/2 jar of food for lunch and an entire jar at dinner time. What a good eater!!! You also got your first try with juice in a sippy this month and did great with it.

You're now off and rolling with the best of them. Although you prefer to be on your back, you're spending more and more time happy on your stomach and will roll 2-3 times to get to something you want. The only problem is that sometimes you get hung up because you won't take your thumb out of your mouth. Silly baby. You're still sitting like a champ and doing a great job of keeping your balance. Daddy starting having you practice walking the other day, and it made me so proud yet so sad. I can't believe you're so big now!!!

You have been talking virtually non-stop lately. We love hearing your constant stream of 'ba's, 'da's, and 'ga's, but I can't wait until you throw a few more 'ma's in the mix. It's just so funny, because we can tell that you just love the sound of your own voice. I love it too.

This is the last monthly milestone that you'll celebrate in our little apartment. We'll be moving soon so that you'll be closer to family and have more space to move and groove. This has been a good home for Daddy and Mommy and we'll never forget the place where we became a family.

I love you so much, Kaylee. You add so much joy and wonder to my life. Happy 7 months!!!

Your Mommy
