I took the pictures on the right day, the post is just late. We went to Ft. Worth (more on that latter) to visit Eric's family for Spring Break and got back late last night. So here is last Saturday's post.At
7 months, Jane is:
21 pounds!!!
No kidding, we found that out last week when I took Jane in for her ear infection.a very sturdy sitter. She's reaching more and farther everyday. Still no real scooting, though.
She's content to sit and reach. Although she does utilize her rolling abilities to reach for things and maneuver. eating 3 solid meals a day (no pun intended) She's slowly liking sturdier textures and has even sucked on some honey dew, an apple slice, some toast, and a frozen mini bagel. Not that she ate much, but you know. Her favorite, no fail, will always eat foods are squash and sweet potatoes. She usually likes bananas, oatmeal, peaches, mangos, and green beans.has 2 teeth. #2 broke through last week and the top two are starting to swell beneath the gumsis totally weaned from the breast and holds her own bottle.
Now let's review in pictures:
Jane at 1 week
Jane at 3 monthsFavorite Toys & Games:
Sorting toys and blocks. She'll spend a whole hour taking those little shapes out of their sorting box and looking in it, banging the shapes together.
Peek A Boo
Singing. She really likes If Your Happy and You Know It and Patty Cake and Wash the Lady's Dishes, in part because she likes anything with repetition and anticipation.
Being thrown about.
Getting tickled.
and incidentally, Jane is scared of bubbles...
Jane at 5 months
Jane at 7 monthsMy baby is HUGE! She's not even a baby anymore. Not really...*sigh* I'm almost ready for another, my body isn't....
this is me saying "uhhhh, you are new. i haven't seen you before, who/what are you exactly? maybe I can get a better look if I crane my head all the way back like this." i make this face a lot, especially in Ft. Worth. there were lots of new things in Ft. Worth.
this is aunt Kathleen. she's nice and smells good and doesn't make sudden movements. i like her soft cheeks.
this is me and grandma playing baby-zilla stomps the plastic fruit village. i think my hair looks great in the bright sun, don't you? although, those capris do make my legs look short. my grandma seems to like them, though.
that's my cousin Ellora. she's three months old. she has nice ears.
Ellora likes my armpits.
this is my great grandma. Jane is one of her names, too. what are the odds!?!
mommy had to take another bath picture of me because these were daddy's old bath toys. old or not, bath toys are made for one thing--eating.
speaking of eating, grandma is real good at feeding me. and for some crazy reason, i like eating better when there's lots of sunshine.
two words: coolest toy ever (duh, i'm not even eight months old yet, i can't count)
animal, vegetable, or mineral? i can't decide. i also can't decide if i like touching it or not. i definitely don't like it when it touches me.
yay for Texas!
