Louise Newsletter: Month 7

I know, I know...I am long overdue to write this. Between you and Elliot, you keep me so busy, but I digress...
Louise - you have started army crawling and have quickly become very fast at it. You have reached that point where I can't really trust you out of my sight anymore and have begun to gate you in certain places.
This is so crazy to me as your brother never army crawled and didn't "really crawl" until he was nine-months-old. You are so advanced =)


There are two words in your repertoire, "mama" and "dada". Though we are pretty convinced you don't actually know what they mean.
You now have three-teeth with two more coming any day now on the top. These last two have left you feeling pretty crummy and fussy. Can't say that we blame you.

You are on the verge of "really crawling" by getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth. We think you are days away from putting it all together. And somehow you manage to sit up 1/2 way with the support of one arm. Then quickly you change into downward-facing-dog yoga pose. Future yogi?
You continue to love eating food, chomping on carrot sticks or apple slices.
So far though you are not such a fan of anything pureed and green...


Sleeping continues to go well at night. You often sleep 11-12 hours straight which means you don't nap much during the day. No complaints about that as we are usually on the go during the day with your brother anyway. You love to be held and carried in the ergo.
You have grown out of the exersaucer already because you are so tall! The Johnny Jumper is a new favorite.

You continue to exude happiness and mellowness. We couldn't love you anymore than we already do.

Love,

Mama
