Baby Elisabeth is now 7 months!!

I admit I breathed a sigh of relief when she turned 3 months old and I believed it when she turned 6 months but 7 months!??  Really???  She's getting so big so quickly.  This past month she has developed more than ever before:
  • She weighs 18.5 pounds still and is 27 1/2 inches long
  • She only wears 12-month-old clothes and is starting to get a little big for it
  • When she is a little sad she says "a-mama" and even "mama."  It kills me!
  • She rides in a fancy new car seat - Britax Marathon and likes it
  • She laughs a lot more, especially when I play with her a lot and stack blocks for her to push down.  We do it over and over again and she laughs
  • She still doesn't mind getting passed around to different people so no stranger anxiety yet
  • She loves to eat solids
  • Her first bottom tooth has erupted and it's sharp!
  • She scoots backwards everywhere and can sit herself up from a tummy down position! Incredible to watch
  • She sits up in the corner of her crib and starts to cry because she can't figure out how to get back down
  • She still eats everything in sight
  • She is such a good girl.  She rarely really cries with tears and only whimpers a bit when she is frustrated but she doesn't like to cry.  She's such a sweetie
  • She loves her daddy more than anything in the world and gives him big smiles. 
  • She finally likes to play peekaboo and gets it
  • She is precious and we love her.  She always sleeps through the night (no dreamfeed) and sometimes I have these mother pangs where I just want to run into her bedroom and scoop her up and kiss on her!

Here we are at the farmer's market yesterday by the pumpkin patch.
And here she is with her poppa
