It's About Time

I'm FINALLY updating the past two months of stuff. I'll start with Leila. She is now 7 months old! I'll copy the entries that I'm putting into her baby book.
**Monday, March 15, 2010 was your six month check up.
You had more shots.
You cried until you saw the sad baby in the mirror,
then you became happy. You love to look at yourself in the mirror.
At that time, your measurements were as follows:
-Head – 43.5 cm
-Height – 27 ¾ in
-Weight – 18 lbs 12 oz
**You roll all over the place. You are starting to army crawl/scoot
around by pushing yourself forward with your toes.
**You have started to push yourself back up to sitting position.
** You are stable enough to play with toys in the bathtub.
**You had RSV just a few days after your five month check up.
**You have started to pat everything, usually with your right hand.
You like to hear the sounds that it makes and have started to notice
that different materials make different sounds.
**You started eating “baby food.”
You started with all the vegetables first.
At first you didn’t like carrots or peas, but it was mostly
because the texture was new. Fruits will come next.
**You took the most darling pictures in your Samoan dress.
And naked. Sorry, but it was too cute.
**You have started to talk with bahbahbabababa…
**At seven months, you are becoming extremely mobile.
You push yourself up onto your feet with your hands still on the floor.
You take a few steps this way, then roll back onto your butt.
You are getting closer to an actual crawl. You do crawl a few paces, but
then go back up to your toes, or sit back down.
**You are starting to try and pull yourself up to stand.
**You are extremely silly. You flirt with your dad.
When he plays with you and makes you laugh,
you taunt him to keep doing it.
**You have the cutest little giggle.
**You are eating more baby food. Fruits included.
**You STILL don’t sleep well through the night. You are usually up at
least once, thinking you need to eat.
**You have graduated to a “stay-in-the-car seat.”
Because you aren’t confined to your car seat anymore,
You love to go shopping because you can see so much.
**You are VERY observant.
Everywhere you go, you take in all the sights.
**You tend to stare at people.
**You have learned that if you pat with an object,
it makes a different sound.
**Your babble now includes a “papapa” and “mamama” sound.
**You were extremely sick just a week after your six month check up.
Saturday March 20th, you went to Insta Care. You had 101.9 fever,
blisters on your throat, an ear infection in your left ear, and goopy
eyes. You were so sick, you WANTED to cuddle.
**You had your first Easter in St. George with Grandma Neener’s side of
the family. You discovered that you don’t like the feel of grass.
