Hazel 7 months

Snapshot

 

What a doll-baby! You are wearing one of mommy's dresses, which I love to put you in for church on Sundays.  It's so special that your Bobby kept all of mommy's stuff so nice and neat!  This picture captures your sweet smile- you are LOVING your tongue these days, especially blowing raspberries!  You think you are so funny- and I think you are too!  You are so strong, standing straight up all on your own, and standing there for close to a minute sometimes!  It won't be long and you'll be walking, slow down, just sit down and be our baby for awhile!  You have decided the baby swing, exersaucer, etc are for  babies- and you will have nothing to do with them!  Well unless someone is right there with you playing and singing with you!  Patty Cake, Itsy Bitsy, and Horsey are your favorites.  You are all over the house- but learning the word NO pretty well!  You even look back to see if we are watching before you put your hand on the first step!  You know better!  You can PUT some food AWAY!  like a champ, you have had all veggies and fruits, that Gerber makes, and lots of stuff mommy has made for you and LOVE it all!  You haven't met a food you don't like!  You are growing so big and strong, and smart!  Youve learned to stand up and scream in your crib- which means you have also learned to scream and fall back to sleep.  It didn't take long, a few days of crying for short bits, but now you are on a pretty good sleeping schedule- at least during the day.  At night you still want to wake up and eat 1-2 times!  And I want you to SLEEP so I can!
  You always seem to make a bee line to the one thing in the room you shouldn't have (cords, remotes, legos, etc)  You went on a carousel for the first time, and loved it!  You love when your daddy gets home, and he sure does love his Daisy girl!
