7 Months of Hallie Grace

At 7 Months Hallie is:

Babbling mama, dada and baba. The best is when she whisper-babbles. It is so cute!

Crawling like crazy. She started at 6.5 months and hasn't slowed down. She mainly crawls just to get to a destination that she can climb. She loves to pull herself up to standing with the couch, chairs, computer desks etc.

Slowly starting to like rice cereal. . . but not really.

Loves drinking water! Sippy cups, normal cups, water bottle, straight out of the faucet...anything goes!

At 6.5 months, she decided that nursing was the greatest thing ever, and I haven't had to pump very often since then. Woot woot!

Loves taking baths and showers! She had her first shower a few days ago and she smiled and squealed the whole time. She loves water dripping down her face!

"Ha"-ing. So we've been trying to get Hallie to laugh, but it's like she doesn't know how! When she thinks something is funny, she smiles suuuuuper big and breathes in while making a scary "grudge" sound. It's hilarious, but I ache for a good belly laugh from her! So we started dramatically fake laughing at her "Ha HA HA HA" in hopes that it would spur and laughing fit... it didn't. But now whenever we start laughing at something, she goes "HA! HA! HA!" It's totally fake, but we appreciate the effort.

Waking up 2-3 times a night. WHAT?! She's never done that til now. She'll usually eat once a night, but the other times she wakes up, she just wants to be snuggled or put into bed with us. Which we do and she loves it... and I immediately regret it when she starts pulling my hair, poking my eyes, flailing etc in her sleep. 

Wearing size 3 diapers, 6-9 and 9-12 PJS and 3-6 and 6-9 month normal clothes.

Her clogged tear duct still hasn't opened... so her right eye is always goopy, but she doesn't let that slow her down.

 Pretty much she's adorable, funny and so adventurous! We loooooove her!
