Seven Months

Our wonderful little babe is now seven months.  Here's another list of random updates on Alma....

• Starting to roll multiple times in a row, thus moving across the floor. Can also scoot forward and back on her stomach a bit.
• Learned to close her eyes and mouth before going under water. So neat to see how quickly she learned this!
• Doesn't stick out her tongue nearly as often as she used to, although it still seems to be out more than other kiddos her age.
• Two teeth -- both on the bottom in the front
• Gets the giggles around 5 p.m. daily
• Likes trees and pulling out grass
• Gets tired of watching the dog play fetch (didn't think it was possible!)
• Three naps a day (each at least an hour long)
• Still nurses every two hrs along with learning how to eat solid foods

• Loves to swing
• Seems to know her name
• Claps vertically (flaps, really)
• Loves water/pools ... she even got excited when Joshua poured a glass of water yesterday
• Roars like a dinosaur often, especially when excited
• Seems to have stretched out in the last month. Now she can reach the top of her head!
• Likes the book Where Is Baby's Belly Button? and books with photos of babies. She smiles and flaps arms while I read.

She is full of such joy and love. Being her parent is the best!
