Ellie - 7 Months

Ellie is 7 months!

Unofficial Stats:

Weight: 16 lbs 8 ounces

Height: 25.5 inches

Other highlights from the past month:

• Sleeping -  About the same as last month.  She's goes to bed around 8 - 8:30 and usually sleeps until around 5:30 - 6:00.  Ellie has had some ear troubles which results in her getting up once or twice during the night.
• Favorite activities - Playing in her jumper, chewing on Sophie the giraffe, laughing with Brady.
• Dislikes - some days I would say food.  She still despises taking medicine.  We wish she wouldn't have to take antibiotics so frequently.
• Notable accomplishments - She is a confident sitter and started crawling the day after Christmas. Her crawling style is in between an army crawl and a regular crawl. 
• Eating - She is eating purees and has tried quite a few things, but it's very hit or miss.  She gets at least two meals a day of solids, but she definitely prefers mom's milk. 
• Other notable activities - We traveled to Wichita and to Peoria for the holidays.
