Ava Sophia Boemer ~ 7 months old

-She smiles almost constantly!
-I think when she looses her 'baby fat' on her face that she is gonna have a dimple. She has an indention in her cheek when she smiles anyway.
-She says 'da da da da' all the time!
-She likes to growl to get your attention.
-She has one tooth!! And she knows how to use it... ouch!
-She loves sitting up.
-If she is holding onto your fingers she can pull herself up to standing.
-Her hair is coming in fast!! And it's still very dark!
-Her eyes are probably gonna be brown, but for now they are a gorgeous dark green.
-The birthmark under her arm has faded some, but the one on her chest is still dark.
-She is learning to wave... see above video.
-She recognizes Momma and Daddy when she is asked where they are.
-She gets super excited when her brothers enter the room. Bryant likes to kiss her and play with her. Tres likes to entertain her and make her laugh.
-I call her braille baby because she just has to feel your face sometimes! And I love that.
-When she suck on her paci, she does this throat noise that's hard to explain. She goes 'um, um, um, um' on an up and down inflection pattern. I'll try to capture that on video soon. It's my favorite thing she does right now!
-She weighs over 14 pounds now. She's still little, but feels more solid!
-She nurses 3 times a day and eats baby food and cereal the rest of the time.
-She also snacks on crackers, cheese puffs, biter biscuites, and snack puffs with extremely diluted apple juice or water.
-She goes to bed around 8 every night. When she is teething or not feeling well, she will wake up around 5 to nurse, but most of the time she sleeps until 7 or 8.
-She is in 3-6 month and some 6 month clothing.
-She wallows in bed, and sleeps with a silkie and paci.
-She started clapping or what looked like clapping last week and was super pleased with herself.
-She jabbers and talks so loudly in the car that it's almost impossible to talk over her!
-She loves to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and will sit through an entire episode.
-She has fallen off of my bed... but hey, that's supposed to be good luck, right?
-She rolls and rolls or twists and turns on the floor (or a bed) until she gets where she wants to be.
-She tries to push her knees up under her and ends up doing a face plant in the carpet! :)
-She snuggles so sweetly.
