7 Months

Our Caitlin Bug is 7 Months Old!!!!!  The 7th month brings lots of fun changes!  She's crawling all over the place!  Which means she is getting into everything!!!!  She also is playing a lot more with Abigail.  As I type, Abigail is "dancing" and Caitlin is cracking up.  Abigail can make Caitlin laugh like no one else can!  Caitlin is figuring out how toys work and knows what to do when she gets to a new toy!  She's still sleeping through the night, but has been getting up around 4:30am lately....we are working on this but we also don't want her to wake up Abigail.  She is beginning to try baby food. She has a big test at Children's Memorial tomorrow to help figure out what is going on with her eating....and then next week is the hearing retest, which we are all anxious about!  Also, we happened to be at the dr this week for vaccinations and they said she only gained 1/2 an ounce in the last month.  It doesn't sound right to us, so they will retest her tomorrow!  I think someone read the scale wrong!  She's still on Nutramigen formula, and she's on a 22 calorie diet (most formula is only 20 calories).  She likes Kramer, but isn't very interested in him.  She has the sweetest smile that can light up a room!  She brings us more joy than we ever could have imagined!!! We'll be starting Caitlin's first "class" in a few weeks...swimming lessons...and I'm really looking forward to that time together!!  Here are some 7 months pics and others to compare:
