Seven Month Update

Last Friday, Teegen hit the seven month mark...what???? Where did all that time go? She continues to grow and thrive, never ceasing to amaze me! There are times when it seems like just yesterday, I was cuddling a scrawny 4 day old in the NICU. And there are times when it feels like Teegen has always been a part of our family.

So what's she doing now? More like what is she not doing now. This girl loves to move and is always busy! While not crawling just yet, she can get where she wants to go when on the floor, either by rolling or scooting. Sometimes she will do the worm to grab a toy just out of reach. When she is sitting in your lap, she is constantly grabbing things. Larry and I are seriously considering Lasik surgery given the number of times Teegen has yanked our glasses off. One of her favorite pasttimes is hairpulling, so I am thinking of shaving my head. Funny, she doesn't seem to bother Larry's hair.
We tried for a seven month picture with Harry, after Mom forgot.
You see that I didn't want to sit still.

Do you think that we need pictures in the bathtub?

Mom, I think this is an inappropriate time for photos

Other recent developments include:

• Imitating sounds--a few of the little boys in day care with Teegen make this throaty "he-he-he" noise, which she was picked up as well. She has also started growling.
• Has tried lots of new foods, including apples, pears, mangos, peas and butternut squash. She is still not crazy about anything but her bottle.
• Very interested in the remote control. Thanks to YaYa, Teeg has one of her very own.
• While trying to crawl, she can pull herself onto all fours and get herself into the "downward dog" yoga position.
• Loves to fall asleep with her Daddy in the recliner.
