7 months old

Charlotte is 7 months old! We went to the doctor for a check up today and got her stats:

Weight: 17 lbs. 11 oz. (50%)

Height: 26 1/2 inches (50 %)

Head: 26 1/2 inches (75%)

Charlotte is such a happy and fun baby! She love to smile and laugh. Her neck is very ticklish and she loves blowing raspberries. She has the best smile for Mommy and Daddy when she sees us. We love our little girl and are so blessed to be her parents. She brings so much joy, love, and laughter to our lives.
Here are some things about Charlotte at 7 months:

- She can crawl! She is off to the races - well sort of. She has the perfect crawling technique, but does it slowly. She gets a little faster every day

- She can almost go from crawling to a sitting position, but not quite

- She pulled herself up to standing all on her own two times last night! Aaaa!

- Char goes to bed at 7:30 and usually sleeps about 10-11 hours through the night. She usually takes 2 naps a day and sometimes we can get her to take another short early evening/later afternoon nap.

- Her favorite toys are her balls from her monkey toy, her little musical laptop, and our cat, Oreo!

- She still loves jumping in her jumparoo. She will jump for 20 minutes straight!

- In the car she loves to play with her car seat toys and talk to herself.

- Things don't stay on her feet very well. She loves to pull off her shoes and socks.

- She eats oatmeal, green beans, peas, avocado, squash, carrots and sweet potatoes. We will introduce fruit very soon! She is picky about texture so she seems to like the Gerber food better than the homemade food I have made because it is smoother.

- She is completely on formula now.
