I missed posting Caylee's 7 months on the actual day, but I'm close! Friday, she was officially 7 months! Caylee is getting so big :) She got her 1st tooth last Monday (those were a rough few days!!) She was SUPER fussy... cried when I left the room (which isn't too abnormal these days, but it was screaming cry, not just mad cry), cried when we wouldn't hold her, cried because she didn't want held... poor little thing, nothing made her happy. Then, as if by magic, that tooth popped through and she was a new kid! I was able to do laundry around the house again, make dinner without her screaming the whole time, she played happily on the the floor... amazing!
She is still pushing up on her legs and when we sit close enough to her she is constantly trying to pull up on our legs... no crawling yet though.... it is a little exhausting because she wants to move around SO badly and just can't. I'm REALLY hoping she'll learn soon.
She's a FANTASTIC napper... except when there is too much noise. I really can't do much around the house at all when she naps, which is fine with me! I get a little down time and sometimes a nap myself :) She is such a scheduled baby, but I also love that because I know exactly what she wants. Right now her normal schedule is:
6:45am- wake up
7am- I go get her from her room (I get her early if she is screaming, but usually when she wakes up she plays happily in bed for a while)- Breakfast
7am-8ish- play in room, read etc
8-8:15ish- bottle
8:30- Nap 1 (this is when I get to get ready for the day and do my bible study)
10am- get up, change clothes, run errands
11-11:30ish- Lunch
12-1ish- Play... we have been sitting outside reading, listening to music... she LOVES being outside!
1ish- Bottle
1:30- Nap 2 (I just watch tv, and relax a little, sometimes taking a nap myself here... I will have to start packing soon!)
3pm- Wake up, play a little... usually I let her play on her own here to give her time to herself and I can do other things around the house
4pm- Walk with dogs... we walk about 2 miles or more each day... again, it's nice to be outside when we can
5:30ish- Dinner
6-7:30ish- play, keep her happy, hope daddy gets home! (this is her fussy time and she whines a lot)
7:10- Bath
7:20- Bottle
7:45-8ish- Bed
However, when she is off schedule for a day or so she does REALLY well... although she doesn't miss mealtimes :)
And clothing... she's in 6-9 month clothing, but several things that just say 9 months she is easily wearing!
That's Caylee at 7 months :) Pretty easy going. She's such a joy and we've loved watching her grow!! We can't wait for the next stages!!
She wouldn't smile at me for the camera-- I think the new camera freaks her out... so here she is looking at Matt.
She's been making FUNNY faces lately when we smile... and funny noises to go with those faces.
This is how she sits in carts... it gives her the ability to look any direction at all sorts of people... she looks so comfortable and relaxed! (Sorry mom, we have the cart protector, but I was in a rush this day, we do use it though- all the time!) :)
