Joy To The World....

.....Lucy's 7 Months!

What a FUN time this age is!  Lucy is so stinkin' cute, she just kills me! Her newest "thing" is giving big, slobbery, wide-open mouthed kisses.  How could anybody not love that?  It's pretty sweet.  I say, "Lucy, can Mommy have kisses?"  And she leans in and plants a big wet one on my cheek.  I absolutely LOVE it. 

She is growing, growing, growing!  I can't believe she's closer to her 1 year mark than her birth.  Time just flies!  At her appointment last week, she was 17.4 lbs (58%) and 26 1/4 inches long (74%!) Her poor head is only 33%, but it's still so perfectly round and just beautiful.

She is full of laughter and squeals and has the sweetest voice in the world.  She sings all day long.   Her favorite toys are the ones you have to hit or spin to light up and sing.  She gets so much joy from playing.  I love that she can now entertain herself with her toys.  The world is her playground and she sure does like to explore!  Her favorite snacks are cheerios and pretzels (I think she just likes to suck the salt off of the pretzels- haha!).  Peek-a-boo will keep her laughing forever! She loves her bath time and will sit and splash for as long as you'll let her.  And oh my gosh, she is SO ticklish!  Hearing her laugh is simply music to my ears :) She loves to be hanging upside down.  I know it might sound strange, but when she's cranky, we hold her up by her feet and immediately she starts laughing.  Dancing gets her going too.  She loves it when we dance with her.  Plus, if you turn on music or sing to her, she will sing right along with you.  

Could she be any more precious?  I ask that question each day of her life, and yet everyday just gets better and better.


 

Happy 7 Month Birthday my sweet baby angel!
