WOW, 7 months old!!

I really can't believe that Makayla turned 7 months old last Wednesday, April 29th. I am amazed at how fast time is flying by. People always say that it goes by so fast but I had no idea it would really be this fast!!

I am loving every second of being Makayla's mommy, even when she wants to wake up at 2 or 3 in the morning. I'm hoping that she outgrows this phase very soon. She was sleeping all night but I think she's waking up now since she's teething. However, she did sleep all night last night so maybe it will continue. Although Makayla is teething, she doesn't have any teeth and I don't feel anything in her mouth to make me think that she might be getting a tooth soon. She loves to chew on everything and she is a non-stop drooler! Hopefully she will get some teeth soon.



Makayla's favorite thing to do is hang out in her exersaucer. Now that she is tall enough to reach the bottom, she likes to bounce up and down and play with her toys. She is so alert and laughs all the time. There is no mistaking when she is in the room. She lets us know by screaming with joy and growling. She makes a growling sound and laughs so hard when you do it back to her. I think she just does it to see if you will do it back. When not in her exersaucer, she likes to be on the floor rolling around and trying so hard to crawl.

She is such a little piglet! I never thought that such a little baby girl could eat so much. She eats two packs of baby food for lunch while at the baby sitter's house and she eats two packs for dinner with me or her daddy. Of course, she also has her bottles throughout the day and at bedtime. Her favorite thing to eat is anything with bananas. She would much rather eat fruit than any kind of vegetables. I guess she takes after her mommy and daddy when it comes to eating. The other night while feeding her dinner, she was so tired and fell asleep in the middle of eating. Here's a picture....so cute!



Having Makayla in our lives is such an adventure. I can't wait for all of the fun things to come, even though I really don't want for her to grow up! She is so precious and such a daddy's little girl already. We're in big trouble! :)
