7 Month Chair pic
Somehow I forgot to post Emerson's 7 month chair picture. I meant to put it at the top of her 7 month post, but forgot. So here she is in all her 7 month glory!

Emme is 7 Months Old!
Emerson was 7 months old yesterday! She is the best baby. We feel so blessed that God chose us to be her parents! I love that she lights up when she sees any family member. I love that she sticks her little tongue out when she smiles. I love her roly poly arms & legs that she flails around all the time. I love her knuckle dimples. I love that button nose. I love how curious she is. I love her!
* She rarely cries - only when she doesn't feel good or when she can see her bottle but doesn't actually have it yet.
* She weighs 15 lbs 5.4 oz.
* She wears 3-6month clothing or 6month.
* She is eating solids well and I haven't found anything that she doesn't like so far.
* She does not take a bottle well. She will suck for a minute or so and then pull away, turn her head, cry then repeat. It takes about 30-40 min for her to drink a 6oz bottle and often times we quit before she finishes. The doctor said to not tolerate it and take the bottle away after about 15 mins and try again later. It has been really frustrating when she does it at school with breastmilk - so much has gone to waste and now we are officially out. So 100% formula from now on. :( She likes the Playtex drop-in bottles with a fast flow nipple best.
*She sleeps for 12 hours straight without waking at night. 8:00pm-8:15am BEST baby!
* She is not the best napper - there is no schedule for napping. She won't follow one, but in general she takes a nap around 10am for 1 hour if on her back & almost 2 if on her tummy. Then she naps again starting between 2 & 3pm for the same amounts of time. She will sleep for longer if she is held, but I don't like to perpetuate that.
* She can sit very well on her own, for long periods of time.
* She is getting very close to crawling - army crawling. She will drag to turn herself, but does not go forward yet.
* She constantly reaches for anything & everything and it all goes promptly to her mouth! Currently, she has my phone in her mouth. Ick! Her socks are constantly wet from chewing on her feet.
* Her brother CRACKS her up all the time! This is my absolute favorite sound & it makes my heart sing!
* She babbles much of the day and Jackson will say, "Emme singing 'gin."
* She loves baths in her new duck tub. Sadly, because of her eczema, they have to be short. Can I just go on the record that eczema sucks! Both Jackson & Emerson have it, so we spend a lot on Aquaphor!
Here she is at breakfast the other morning:
Emme, thank you for being our little girl! Mommy & Daddy adore you!
