7 Months Old

Diaper Size: 2 and size 3 at night 

Clothes Size: 6-9 months

Eat: We had to start supplementing with formula because I am not producing enough since I am pregnant. She gets one bottle of breastmilk a day (4oz) and the rest is formula. She has a 6 oz bottle in the morning, 4oz during the day and 7 oz at night

Sleep: She started sleeping in her crib. The first two weeks were not going well. Waking up constantly and not letting me sleep much. But eventually she started to sleep throughout the night. Her bed time is 7 am and is waking up around 6 am  

Play: She is trying to stand independently. I am standing behind her and helping her a little bit, but enjoys standing up a lot. 

Milestones: Started to have fruit purees. The first time she ate fruit she was shocked by how sweet it was, but is getting used to it. Her favorites so far are mango, bananas and pears. This month it snowed for the first time and she enjoyed sitting outside and seeing the snowflakes. Of course, I didn't let her stay out too long :)  

Likes: Likes her veggies more than her fruits, but really like to eat. Just like her Mama :) She started playing with blocks that she got from her Memaw and loves them. She hasn't mastered putting them in the correct hole, but likes to cheat and take off the sorting part and just stick them back in there.   

Dislikes: Still having some separation anxiety, but think it is getting better. She doesn't like to sleep alone, but is getting better sleeping in the crib. 

Personality: We are starting to know things that will make her laugh, like rubbing our head on her belly. She is always smiling and when you laugh or smile she does the same. 

Showing off her attitude :) 

Dear Presley,

We can't believe you are seven months already! Time is flying by sooooo fast! We love you so much. We started having you sleep in your crib this month. Sure is hard on Mommy and you. You just enjoy snuggling and sleeping with me, but you need to sleep on your own. Believe me, if I could snuggle with you 24/7 I would. I love hearing you breathe :) You are getting so big and independent. You love to stand up and try to do it on your own all the time. You will get it soon. Just remember how much we love you. 

Love Always,

Mommy and Daddy xoxo
