Another month older!







It is hard to believe our baby girl is seven months old.....still a baby but growing and changing ever so quickly. She still is really petite for her age. At six months she weighed just 13lbs 14 ounces......8th%......so she really is still just a tiny little girl!

In the past month she has learned to sit mostly unsupported.......she can sorta move around a bit, not really scooting but I have seen her try to scoot and she gets herself to move and turn around a bit to get something she wants. One thing that is different from her brothers is that she has shown little interest in baby food. She would rather suck on apples, cantaloupe, bananas, and cheerios. she takes two great naps a day that last for 2 hours each. She still wakes up two times a night to eat but it isn't so bad since she doesn't give us a hard time when we put her down for bed! She knows when it is time to sleep.....I nurse her, swaddle her and put her in her crib and she will cry for maybe 10 seconds and then she goes to sleep....and this is the same little baby that would only fall asleep if her daddy was holding her!

She still loves to watch her brothers play and she even laughs at them when they throw a temper tantrum.....its kinda funny to watch! She loves to grab anything in her sight and of course she takes things right to her mouth. I really have to watch what her brothers give her to play with! I also have to watch Jack because he thinks he is helping me by trying to pick her up......sometimes by the neck! She loves to look at the wondrous world around her and lets us knows what she thinks of it! She can be quite vocal at times from all the ooooooooo's and ahhhhhhh's, the giggles, and the crying. She is growing more and more red hair....it's still not tons but it is a lot for our babies!

Even though she is growing and changing so fast, sevral things remain unchanged, she is still our cute baby girl, baby doll, love, sweetness, cutie wootie, ava bo bava and our little princess!

Wow, another month gone. Where does the time go?

Ava is such a pretty princess; she reminds me of when you were a baby.

Love each and every day of being in the trenches of motherhood!!
