7 Months!

So this picture was taken 1 week late due to sickness, and this post is almost 1 month late... due to the fact that Ella is such a busy little girl now!

She continues to amaze us every day!  I am just trying to soak up every bit of her - she is crawling on her hands and knees now, standing on everything, playing all the time, and is only happy if she is on the go!  I love watching her but she sure does keep us busy!

At 7 months old she is mostly still wearing 6 months clothes, but I've started to put some 9 month clothes on her depending on the brand.  She wears a size 3 Costco diaper - although she will hardly stay still for a diaper change, it is a battle every time, even when I have to wake her up in the morning.

She loves her food and eats baby food 3 times a day and still takes 4 8oz bottles a day.  The Dr. said that "she would let me know" when she didn't need as many or as full bottles, but she still gobbles them all up.  She loves squash, pears, bananas, apples and peas... along with many other yummy fruits and veggies!

Although I am probably about to jinx it the last few weeks she has been back to being an amazing sleeper.  She is generally down by about 8:30 and on weekdays I wake her up at 7:10, on the weekends she has been known to let us sleep until 9!  We are very aware of how lucky we are!!!

We love our sweet little angel so very much!  She may exhaust us, but we are so thankful to have this cute little bundle in our lives!
