Baby Bobble Head - 7 Month Molly

Month 6 cruised by without many good pictures. I'm more likely to grab my phone and snap a crappy, blurry picture because I can text it to family... if I want to use the nice camera that usually means going to the other room to pull it out, then uploading the picture, then emailing it... so we've ended up with a lot of useless camera pics that I don't know how to get onto the computer. 

Here are a few I took with the real camera one day when I was trying to keep her entertained with her toothbrush. She got chompin' alright!... on the wrong side!






Here are some highlights of 7 Month Molly:

* She loves being outside. We go on a lot of walks - it helps with our sanity.
* She does this funny bobble head thing. She shakes her head "no" to everything... or just gives us a blank stare.
* She wants to crawl and can motor her way around really well on her belly. She pulls herself into the quad and rocks back and forth... then dives forward onto her tummy. Coach dad is helping her figure out how to move her hands forward while keeping her hips in flexion. It will happen soon. (YIKES!)
* Still just the two bottom teeth, but we think those top ones might be on their way.
* She still doesn't babble much - occasionally she will, but usually she just squaks. It isn't the most pleasant sound, especially at her preferred volume: high.
* SQUIRMY. Diaper changing is the domestic equivalent of steer wrestling.
* She loves tub time. It usually involves eating her rubber duck, trying to climb out of the baby tub, or playing the part of Shamoo.
* She likes playing with her toys and jumping (really high) in her jumperoo. She can play by herself for longer spurts of time... except now that she's on the go we are constantly having to swoop in and prevent her from licking the kitchen floor or pulling her out from under the couch. Weird kid.

We love this girl. She wears us out. Seriously. But we can't get enough of her. This phase is so fun and we love that she is getting so smart and so interactive. If only we could find her "chill out" switch every once and a while!
