7 Months!!

I don't know how it happened so fast, but Adelyn just turned 7 months old!  I love being a mom and watching her learn and grow!  It is amazing how fast they change!  Since I didn't post her 6 month updates, this will be for the past two months.
Adelyn has started getting around more and more.  She pushes herself backwards, she rolls, she scoots forward on her tummy, she scoots on her bum, or whatever to get to where she wants.  She does the rocking thing that makes me think that she will be crawling any day.
Just recently she has learned how to go from laying on her tummy to pushing herself up to a sitting position.
She LOVES to eat baby food.  She thinks she is an adult and wants to eat whatever we have too!
She is still a happy, easy-going baby!  She loves attention from anyone and laughs easily!
She got sick for the first time this month.  She is almost over it.  She was just very congested, had a runny nose and cough. It made for some really long nights with her waking up every couple of hours.  Let's just say that it has made me grateful for how well she used to sleep! Cross your fingers that she will go back to normal after she gets well!
Critics out there won't believe me, but she has said her first word.  She can say hi and dada.  After she said hi a couple of times I realize how much we say it to her and I decided it was fair to count it as her first word.  I don't think she knows what it means, but she does say it.  She says dada less often and it is more of when she is just making sounds.  As much as I hate to admit, she does look at Travis when I say daddy, so she knows what it means.  Moms never get the credit do they?
I am excited for her next few milestones even though I know our life will change!

I seem to remember another little face that looked just like that from a few years back. Another happy little baby, :)
