Aila is 7 Months Old

It is wierd to think that Aila is now closer to being a 1 year old than she is to being a new born! This month she has started babbling more and changing the tones of her voice. She even was saying mamamamamama one day! I love hearing her squeals of delight! She is STILL army crawling but now she is really fast at it. I took a new video so that you could see her progress below. She is up to eating four jars of stage 2 a day now and sometimes she can even get in a fifth one! I think I might start her on the stage 3 pretty soon. She also had her first taste of Puffs this month (Puffs are like cheerios except they are made to dissolve quickly in a baby's mouth). Today she had a little bit of water from a sippy cup for the first time. She still won't take a bottle, which in a way I am proud of that because she has not had a drop of formula! Although I have tons of frozen breastmilk that keeps expiring! She is starting to experience some separation anxiety when someone else holds her but we are hoping she gets over that quickly. She is completely aware of what her name is and even if you say her name in conversation with someone she will stop what she is doing to look at you. She has gotten really good at picking things up off the floor and putting them in her mouth. I am constantly vaccuming! She is still the best baby in the world (I keep wondering if she is going to change or if she will always be this easy going). She has one tooth and is trying to cut the second bottom tooth but it seems to be taking its time (to my relief because getting bit while your nursing is no fun! Especially once there are top teeth in the picture) Here are her 7 month pictures which were a mess! She had just eaten and she kept grabbing the paper and then Logan kept trying to get in the pictures with her.
