Elynn: 7 months


My sweet little girl is getting so BIG. She is 7 months old. How we love her so. I love that she is getting so much bigger and aware of everything around her. She loves Ezra and Emersyn and still loves to sit and watch them. She does now, however, add her little sweet voice into the mix. Sometimes she can be really loud. Then she smiles so big. I love it. She also is laughing so much more. She thinks I am so funny, which I love. Something new that happened recently is she knows and CARES when someone else is holding her. For the most part, she doesn't mind someone else holding her. The other night we were at a work dinner with Brent's work and one of his co-workers was holding her. She started fussing (which really is unusual for her-she NEVER fusses) and so I walked over to them to see what was going on. She completely reached for me and started to give that fake cry. Once I had her she was completely fine. So, we had Brent's co-worker reach for her again and Elynn turned from them and grabbed onto me for dear life. She has done that a couple of other times since then. Even though it makes me smile that she loves me so, I hope this doesn't become a pattern.
She is not crawling yet, but she REALLY wants to get moving. I am thankful that she hasn't yet. Not sure I am ready for that next stage, but I guess I better start getting ready for it.
I finally started feeding her food. I try to be good about it. I give her a fruit in the morning and a veggie at night. This doesn't always happen, but I am trying.
Elynn is a great sleeper! She usually takes a short morning nap around 930. Her afternoon nap is somewhere between 1230 and 1, which works out great for me because Emersyn takes her nap at 1. So our house is usually quiet from 1-3. Then, she is ready for bed around 6-630, unless she takes a small evening nap. She sleeps through the night and gets up around 730. I definitely can't complain!
She is such a sweet heart and is happy all the time. She definitely makes you want to have another one! Love her.
