Lily at 7 months

Lily, this past month has been so much fun! You have grown and learned at a rate quicker than we could keep up...we're still working on baby proofing, but you're giving us the motivation we need now.
-Starting right around 6 months you were getting on hands and knees and scooting backwards
-We introduced the sippy cup and you quickly figured out how to hold it. You love to drink water and bang your cup.
-You would get super impatient waiting for milk, so I would have to sing while nursing to calm you down
-Your feet are ALWAYS moving, hence your feet are always blurry in pictures
-1/22 It snowed. You sat in the snow happily observing the world around you while I took pictures.
-1/23 you started sucking on your bottom lip...which meant a sad rash :(
-1/25 you started bouncing while sitting, and head banging. You would nod your head up and down so vigorously it looked like you were at a rock concert
-Because you could only scoot backwards, you would get your thighs stuck in crib rails and it made you furious.
-Towards the end of January, you decided you wouldn't be ticklish any more. I've never seen a baby who could refuse to be ticklish until you.
-1/29 you tried carrots. You loved/devoured them.
-2/1 You started hitting your head while nursing...then you started yanking on your hair.
-2/3 You figured out army crawling! It's kind of a half army crawl, half inch worm type maneuver and it's adorable. For the longest time, you would only "crawl" for books; nothing else seemed to be worth the effort.
-2/5 We discovered that you are in major separation anxiety mode...you would not let Uncle Greg hold you and screamed until you were back in my arms. 
-2/8 You started sleeping 12 hours at night.

Everyone comments on what a sweet, pretty baby you are. We are so blessed to have you in our family!
