7 months old

Addie is 7 months old! She is such a busy little girl always wanting to put everything in her mouth, grab everything, and is almost crawling! She stays on her knees and hands and rocks back and forth like she's getting momentum but then just hits the ground on her belly! She can roll and push herself backwards but has not gotten the crawling forward part yet! Maybe a couple weeks! She is also starting to hold her own bottle, not voluntarily, but she will hold it if you put her hands on it! She likes to be a little diva with her bottle and let me hold it! The doctor wanted us to start trying a sippy cup with water (4-6 ounces) for her by her 9 month appointment, so we have been practicing. She loves to hold her sippy because it has two handles on each side which double up as a teething tool! Her favorite food is sweet potatoes (the ones I make) and then anything from the store! I buy Earth's Best brand only due to it not having Asorbic Acid in it. Gerber brand contains Asorbic Acid which isn't totally bad because it is glucose (sugar) but I figure she is getting enough natural sugar out of the fruits.  One day I made zuccini and squash, spinach, carrots, and sweet potatoes which took me about an hour when she was napping. She only ate the sweet potatoes with spinach mixed in. I hope I don't have a picky eater on my hands, but things aren't looking good! :)

Below are her pics! This month it was super hard to keep her focused on me and not the bear on the chair next to her! She kept grabbing it and putting it to her mouth! I had to snap fast!
