7 Months Old


Our little peanut turned 7 months old on Friday! We cannot believe how fast time is flying by! We do not have an update this month on her growth, but we think she is finally starting to gain more weight since she is eating more solids. At our last appointmet, the doc told us to offer her solids at least three times a day and we think that it has helped. Some of her new favorite foods are black beans, canteloupe, and mum mums.

Liliana changed so much in the last month. Here are some things Liliana is doing at 7 months:

* She can pull herself up into a standing position. At first she would grab on to our hands to pull herself up, now we find her using anything that is near to stand up on her own.

* She is now sleeping 10-11 hours a night! Some nights she sleeps completely through the night, others she wakes once at about 5am to eat.

* Lily just started to clap her hands together this week. She loves to watch us clap and has finally figured out how to clap hers.

* She is a dancer. Liliana LOVES music and has become a dancing machine! She shakes her head and body when music is played.

* Liliana is fascinated by Finnegan. She watches him as he runs around the house playing fetch and reaches for him whenever he is near. If we turn our heads for a second, we will find Liliana with a handful of white and gray hairs in her hand from Finnegan's tail.

* She sits in restaurant highchairs and shopping carts now. This makes going out to much easier!


She loves her new toy piano! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the present!

She also loves to play ball!

Look guys! I can stand up now!

Getting ready to watch the Penn State Football Game!

  1. She is SO adorable! Isn't that age the best? Still "baby" but doing much more on their own. And they are so much fun! Life got SO much easier when Colin sat up in shopping carts, and could hold his own bottle. It only gets better :)

  2. It's amazing how much she is growing and changing, each week you will find her reaching another milestone. I hope you and Varun continue to enjoy and delite in Lily's accomplishments as much as Dad and I enjoyed, and continue to enjoy yours. Parenthood is so much fun!
