Happy 7 month birthday Sara! I'm feeling a little bad that she hasn't been getting much blog time lately. People always told me that the youngest tends to get the fewest number of pictures taken and I can now understand why. However, I'm consciously trying not to let them happen but even with that in mind it's still hard! The funny thing is I just looked back at Jack's 7 month blog and I said the same thing about not having a lot of pictures. I probably (definitely) have a distorted view of what a lot of pictures really is.
Anyways, Sara had a great month and is getting so big, even though still relatively a peanut compared to the boys. Here are some highlights from the month....
- Sara loves to eat and whenever I pull out the jar of food or box of cereal she starts waving her arms and making noises. She has been eating two meals a day and I've been holding off on starting lunch since it's just one more thing to add into our already busy schedule. I have to say she is probably the neatest eater I've ever seen for a baby. I don't even need to use a bib....I guess that's the difference between boys and girls. Will and Jack would have it everywhere by the time they were done with their meal.
- Sara is a sitting up champ and rarely falls over (unless of course she is bulldozed over by Will or Jack). She loves playing with her toys while she is sitting, however, her favorites seem to be Ninja Turtles, superheros and anything that belongs to Will or Jack. For now, the boys don't mind it but I'm sure at some point they are going to get annoyed that their little sister is playing with their toys.
- Sara is doing awesome in the sleep department. Two long naps during the day and she sleeps from 7:30pm until 6am. The best thing about Sara and sleeping is that I can just put her into her crib awake and then walk out of the room and she goes to bed all on her own. No hand holding, laying on the floor, sneaking out of the room like we had to do with Will and Jack. I guess by the third you finally learn (and just don't have time for the hour long routines).
- Sara still really isn't into rolling over but has started reaching forward while she is sitting on the ground like she wants to start crawling. I'm in no hurry for her to start crawling.
- Sara is so inquisitive with her big eyes. When someone says hi to her in the hopes of getting a little smile, she just stares at them with her big eyes trying to figure out who this person is and why are they talking to her. It's so funny because the two boys would smile at anyone that looked in their direction, but not Sara. She needs to figure out who you are first before she's giving anything up.
- Lastly, Sara's eyes are still a bluish color. Definitely not brown yet, but not 100% blue so we'll see what happens. Maybe hazel?
So that's everything for the month! Here are some pictures of Sara......
Sara's first experience with Cheerios. For the ones that made it into her mouth, she did pretty well chewing them.
However, there were plenty that didn't make it into her mouth and here's where they ended up!
Loves her highchair!
Some one on one time with her big brother.
My little fashionista! Thanks Auntie Martha and Uncle Jeff for my cute outfit.
