7 months

Alexandra turned 7 months yesterday. They were right when they said the time flew. I cant believe how old she is getting and how big she is becoming. She is turning into a very happy easy going little girl. She still LOVES to be held but for the most part is very content.
Weight: 16 lbs. 9 oz.
Clothing Size:  6-12 months
Feeding: still exclusively breastfeeding, however i think solids are in the near future. She is starting to open her mouth a little for the spoon, until she realizes there is food on there. She does however love Christmas oranges. She will gnaw on the whole thing while I am cooking dinner.
Milestones: Alexandra is sitting up on her own now for the most part. She will still have the odd tumble if she seems something she wants in the distance or gets distracted. She will get on all fours and rock back and forth, however not crawling yet. She can bare her weight on her legs. She is still waking up 1-2 a night, however that will change (whether she likes it or not) once she is on solids. Most nights she is only up once, however there are definitely a couple of nights a week when she is up twice.
Loves: Dogs, mandarin oranges, other kids, swimming lessons, bath's, nursing, putting literally anything in her mouth. Alexandra loves tags...she has a piano that is the size of her head and she will hold the whole thing up to her face so that she can put the tiny little tag on the back in her mouth. We are definitely going to have to baby proof in the near future.
Hates: her snow suit, solids, being in the stroller when she cant move

We also decorated the Christmas tree over the weekend and Alexandra loves looking at the Christmas lights. What a blessing she is.
