7 months

Adelyn is 7 months old!!

She weighs 15 lbs, 3 oz.  She learned to crawl around June 16, cut her first tooth on June 22, and learned to wave on June 27. She is growing up!!!

She is sitting up on her own much better yet still prefers to be "standing" with other people's assistance. When we were at my mom's house she refused to sit for her baths! She would go stiff as a board.  It was hilarious-- took one of us to hold her and another to wash her!

She can get where she wants to go for the most part, which means my job just got a little tougher.  She is slow but determined.  She does the cutest baby planks when she wants to crawl.

She is such a pleasant baby who usually has a smile on her face.  It was interesting to watch her around my family these past few weeks.  She would smile a hesitant smile around new people that looked like she was trying to decide whether to laugh or cry.  Sometimes she would cry.  But as she got more used to the "new" people the crying stopped.  For the most part, she is happy & cheerful.

Adelyn caught a virus somewhere along our travels and is still struggling a little bit with it.  Today is day 7 of fever, more sleepiness and less appetite.  We are hoping it goes away soon!  The doc has told us to keep doing what we are doing and if she still has fever tomorrow we will be heading back to see her.







I have been blown away by her development this month.  She is still so small (15th (ish) percentile!), but it is fun to watch someone so little maneuver around.  She is such a joy.
