7 months

is she really this old? time flies. i barely remember those sleepless nights or constant gassy crying those first couple of weeks, but i remember enough not to want another quite yet!

this month emma taylor mastered staying sitting up and barely falls over at this point. she got her first virus (rsv) and ear infection, and we made our first sick visit (3 of them actually). she still hates dislikes being on her stomach. however, when she does tolerate it, it looks like she is just itching to move. she is such a ham. she will try to imitate you and will do anything that will cause you to smile or laugh over and over again. she still takes 3 naps a day, but those 3 naps only total to about 2-2 1/2 hours of sleep. a day before she turned 7 months she started to say "dada". apparently, she knew the pressure was on to gain a new skill before the end of the month. she is at such a fun age right now. she is super content to be out and about because she loves to people watch (a girl after my own heart). and now, without further adieu, her 7 month photos...
