7 Months

Paige is closer to being a year than she is to being a newborn.  It's kinda weird.  I can't believe how big she has gotten.  I really like the stage that she is in right now.  She's has become very mobile and it's a lot of fun to put her down and watch her explore.  She'll be playing in the family room while I make dinner and eventually she'll find her way into the kitchen to get me.  Her smile is always so big when she finds me.  It is adorable!  The down side to her being so mobile is that she does not want to stay in one place anymore.  It is impossible to change her diaper or get her dressed.  Also impossible - taking her month picture!  She did not want to lay on her back.  She did a lot of this.

And a lot of this.

Eventually I gave up and let her look out the window.

I had to recruit Ryan to help get her attention to take the picture at the top.

Paige has also gotten way better at eating food.  I just started letting her eat our table food that she would reach for, and now she eats everything - rice cereal, baby food, pasta, chicken, she's even eaten grilled cheese sandwich.  Her favorites are applesauce, bananas, and teddy grahams.

Since getting her teeth we've had a few problems with her biting us, and pretty much anything else she can get her hands on, but she's gotten a little better, and now she usually just blow raspberries which is adorable. We just love this little girl!
