ella turned seven months old on the 9th of this month, i took pictures on that very day, but of course i am late getting them out on the blog. anywho, she is such a fun baby, she grins her face off and then scrunches up her nose if she isn't making you smile with just her huge grin. she started to try and crawl at the end of 5months and started crawling like a champ at the end of 6months, now she wants to stand. so she pulls up on her crib, chews on the side rail and waits for me to get in there and get her out. she is still sleeping through the night which is AWESOME (definitely her coolest trick ever) and takes two naps a day. we are still trying to figure out the whole eating/bottle thing. she gets 4 bottles (7,11,3,7) and three meals (7,11,5) per day, but she doesn't take all of her bottles anymore, so i am thinking about dropping one. problem is i have NO idea which one to drop. any suggestions?
she is definitely cutting teeth now, i can see them, two of them on the bottom, the front ones. i have been waiting on these teeth for what seems like forever, not because i was worried, but because she has had all the signs for months and nothing...until now! hooray. she talks all the time and of course her first word is "dada" although i think it is more of a sound than an association; but, none the less, it is a word and we will take it...especially tyson :) okay so i think that is all the new stuff, it is now recorded and i am so grateful because ella does not have a baby book :) purchased one, still looks the very same as the day i bought it.
I knew she would start crawling soon!! She is going to be an acrobat!! She also needs to teach Millie a few things... she is STILL just scootching around, but no crawling!! We had the same thing when we started solid food and had to drop a bottle. I would say find a time between her 11 and 3 bottle. Millie is totally bizarro and won't take a bottle with food. So now we feed her food at normal meal time and bottles I just correlate with nap times (just to make it easy, NOT to put her down with). Mornings she has a bottle then food a bit later. Then at 12:30, she has lunch, 2:00 bottle then nap at 2:30, 6:00 supper, and 7:00 bottle... I know, confusing. But I like knowing what other people did, and then made my own schedule that worked for us. Okay. That's enough!!
