7 months old

Kaylie can sit up for a bit.  She can almost put herself up to sitting position.   When we put her in a sitting position, she sits up for awhile before toppling over.
She can scoot and sometimes goes backwards.  She can also do a little bit of an army crawl.  She started rocking on her knees this month.  Around the 27th, she would take 3 or 4 crawls and then falls to her tummy.
Naps: We finally got her on a schedule....we gave away the swing.  She takes a nap around 9:30, 1:30 and 6:00.  She takes short naps though.  Usually less than an hour.  I guess, since she sleeps 11 - 12 hours every night that she doesn't need as much day-time sleep.
Her favorite stuffed animal is a colorful caterpillar.
She is getting her 2 bottom teeth in. They came in mid January. She was fussy for a couple of days and then we could feel them with our fingers.
Her laugh reminds me of my short chuckles.
 When we went to Kaylie's 6 month check up, the Dr said to feed her everything and anything except honey and chunks that she can choke on.  I learned the hard way when she accidentally bit off a chunk of the pineapple that I was having her suck on.
She likes the Sweet potatoes.  We went to the Olive Garden and I shared my chicken gnocci soup with her.  She loved it.
We found out she likes Pizza sauce.  When we were over at Auntie K's, we dipped our fingers in the sauce and let her suck it off.  She is loving it!
We also made some broccoli soup at Cody's request.  Kaylie and I were the ones who ate it the most.
She likes spaghetti.
Cody discovered that now that Kaylie's neck is fairly stable, he likes to pick her up while he is standing and rock her back and forth.  He feels like such a big kid doing this with her and is very proud and asks me to watch him do it every time.  She does get a little heavy for him, so he can only do it for so long.  But it is really sweet.
The boys fight over how they make her laugh and are very possessive of "their ways and tricks" to make Kaylie belly laugh.  They don't like the other doing "their tricks".
Kaylie went to a movie with the girls.  We went and saw Brooklyn.  a well done movie about an Irish girl who sails to America and ends up in Brooklyn and falls in love with an Italian.
I didn't take pictures with her pink teddy bear this month. --didn't get around to it... But I took this picture on January 31st.  I love this little dress...we got it from a friend, and even though it is a 3 month dress, she wore it on Sunday....so cute with her headband.



 She's being reverent here saying the prayer.

Love this little ball of SUNSHINE!
