Elly is 7 months old!

 7 months old and showing a ton of personality...and this little girl absolutely LOVES her daddy!!

 She likes to just stare at him and keep staring until he looks at her and she gives him really big smiles.
 She really likes to try and sit up...she puts her arms out everytime you lay her on her back and try and push her head up...it looks like she is doing crunches.  She'll have strong abs if she keeps that up!
 Yes...she is sitting up now and scootin herself around in circles when she is on her belly. 
 She chews on her thumb sometimes and loves her stuffed animals. Bambi is her favorite. She holds on to his legs and chews his nose and talks to him as she falls asleep.
 She really loves to play with daddy. She loves his attention and always watches him, while she's eating, laying down, playing. She always has an eye on him.
 Just hanging with dad...she looks so proud of herself.
 She reads the paper like a pro...especially the olympics. She watched a lot of Olympics this last couple of week, and gives me weird looks when I'm screaming for someone to win!
 She loves carrots and is getting used to this solid food business. She also loves Nilla wafers, bananas, pears, apple blueberry, sweet potatoes, and squash. She is not impressed with green beans or peas. 
 She loves to be independent and feed herself. She holds her own bottle and gets mad that I won't let her hold the spoon to feed herself solid food. 
 This is what happened when she got mad enough because she couldn't feed herself. I wasn't looking and she flipped the bowl and covered herself in rice. As you can probably tell, she did not think this was very cool. 
 When sisters get ahold of her this is what happens...if you can see she does have 2 teeth on the bottom now, that was a rough couple of days until those broke through.
 Sleepy in the bumbo...I wore her out that day and couldn't wait to go to sleep. So tired!
 She crosses her legs...
 and bites the nipple on her bottle...
 Smiles at most everyone...
 Feels her new teeth with her tongue...
 Makes funny faces...
 Is super happy and shows that by opening her mouth REALLY big...
and Loves to eat paper...she is becoming mobile...good luck to us all!!
