Alivia is 7 months

Alivia is now crawling! She can sit from her tummy and has 6 teeth. She is already getting into trouble not wanting to leave a plant alone. She smacks her lips together blowing kisses too. Not sure how much she weighs. I'm guessing she's on a steady growth of about a pound a month. She doesn't seem to like any new foods the first couple of times. I have to be consistent and persistent. A bit different from her sister. Cereal she loves, so I mix some in her food. I hope that changes, I don't want a picky eater on my hands! I think Alaina likes that she is a bit active now. oh and how could I forget, she said her first word a couple weeks ago ~ MOM!!! I was rocking her for bed and she said it a bunch, I had a perma-smile. Brandon didn't want to believe me and of course it was a couple days later when he finally heard it, so he's been working on dad lol

We spend alot of time in our jammies, less laundry :P

And her hair is becoming unmanageable, but I don't want to cut it :)

Note the Chiclets!!

Alaina Tidbits

Alaina still really loves her dance class. She is doing very well too. She can sing at least a dozen songs and helps me read all her books. She really amazes us on how quick she can memorize and remember something. She can sing 98% of the alphabet and knows some of the letters sounds, she actually knows the sounds better than she knows the name of the letter itself. She can draw an imperfect circle and line. She tries really hard to colour inside the lines too. We took her skating for the first time this year and she didn't have as much interest as we had hoped. She can stand on her skates off the ice good but she relys on us too much on the ice. So we are going to get her some skate guards so she can practise her balance and walking in her skates at home before trying the ice again.
