7 months young!

 Today we have a 7 month old on our hands! This girl is so active! She will reach for anything she thinks she is close enough to. She is showing a HUGE interest in food, and will try to take any form of food near her (if she avoids choking it will be a miracle!). She has this cute habit of sucking on her tongue if her pacifier isn't there-- but she sticks her tongue out to do it. She LOVES jumping, but her favorite is if you swing her from side to side like a pendulum. She ALMOST crawls, by getting up onto her knees or using just her toes to try to jump horizontally. This girl is also a kissing machine. She grabs onto your face and kisses tons...and boy does she have a strong grip! I literally have scratches on the back of my arms and neck from her always getting me. It is fun to listen to her experimenting with her voice, she ranges from a high scream to a low mean growl. So far no teeth, but she chews everything and drools like crazy so I know it won't be long now. Jon put it best the other night "We should have named you smiley, cause your so cute!" Her little smile will melt your heart!
