I finally took some 7 month pictures of Avery. (now that she is almost 8 months). All she wanted to do was eat the leaves. In fact, she actually got some leaf in her mouth, choked on it then threw it up all over her outfit so our photo shoot was cut drastically short. Here are some things about Avery at 7 months: (or you may skip to pictures below!)
- Sleeps from 8pm-7am…this morning she slept until 8am!!
- Takes 2-3 naps a day. 9-11, 1-3 and 5-6.
- Pushes herself up onto her hands and knees (so close to crawling!)
- Her favorite toys are: butterfly toy, bunny rabbit rattle, and bells.
- She loves to pull the books off the book case and eat them.
- Loves looking at lights, especially the banner at the football games.
- Scoots all over the place.
