7 things

I'm loving about my 7th month old:
1. She loves to sing! Anytime she hears music, she'll "sing" along at the top of her lungs. Especially during American Idol...I desperately hope she starts to take after Jordan in that area :D
2. She has become a little copycat. Her fake coughs wake me up in the morning and she just lies there and waits for me to mimic her. We go back and forth at this game for 10 minutes most mornings. She'll clap her hands when we do and wave back at us.


3. She says mama and nana. Nana means she's hungry. Mama just means she's bored.
4. She pulled herself up on her knees yesterday. Too chubby to crawl, maybe she'll just skip it altogether....

5. She LOVES pickles. The look on her face is pure joy when I hand her a pickle.
6. She still loves being swaddled. Sometimes I miss her being an infant and she seems so old to me these days, but when she's tired and I swaddle her it's just like her newborn days, which I adore.
7. She cuddles with me all night long. As soon as I get into bed next to her she reaches out her arms to touch me and instantly falls asleep. I'm not just in love with being a mom, I love being her mom.
