• You’ve now rolled over a total of 3 times. Once at 3 months. You cried. Once at 7 months. You cried. Once at 7 and 1/2 months. You cried.
• You have figured out that you can pick up your feet and march in your jumper.
• A tooth popped through last Tuesday. On the bottom row of your mouth. It now REALLY hurts when you chew on us.
• It’s so easy for us to make you laugh! You smile and giggle at everything! Especially when we blow a raspberry on your belly.
• I think you’re going to skip crawling altogether. You sit just fine on you own. But, you never try to crawl.
• You’ve pulled up a couple times on my arm. 
• Your new favorite toy is your little spotted stuffed dog. I got the idea from Melissa and Kelsey to hand you a stuffie, your doggy, when you’re tired. You cuddle it. You love it. Naps are better.
• You are pretty much too big for your co-sleeper.. but, we can’t seem to move you to your crib. I’m sure you’d be fine. We just wont be fine. 🙂
• It’s getting a LOT easier to take you places. I can remember back to when you were 4 months old. I had to constantly bounce you all the time. Wore me out.
• Last night you started saying “mah mah mah”. Almost, “ma ma”, but not quite. 🙂 Whenever I repeat, “Ma ma” back to you… you just stare at me.
• It’s pretty funny when strangers try and get you to smile, but you wont do it. Even though at home… getting you to smile is SO easy!
• You like us to help you “walk”.
• We’re thinking of having my mom watch you overnight… 2 nights in a row. I have a hard time not being able to check on you. I know you’ll be fine, but you know.
• You weigh 19 pounds. Whoa.
• You keep trying to fall asleep on your side… I roll you back onto your back. 😀 Hee.
• I think I’m becoming a better mom. It’s been a LONG road, but I’m trying my best.}
