SEVEN Months of Accomplishments

Chandler has done a lot in seven months, she is eating big girl foods. She loves playing with toys, especially if she can bite them. Her two teeth came in around five and a half months but now her teeth are mountainous! She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth, then she will lunge on to her tummy to get anything in her reach. As a mom I had enjoyed holding her and rocking her to sleep, she gets so wound up and does best if I sooth her before putting her in her crib. For a while I could just lay her down and she would go nighty night, but now that she is more mobile she will wiggle so much in her crib that she ends up with her entire leg sticking through the crib railing!! And of course she can't get herself out, so then I have to rescue her and get her all calmed down again. So our little night routine is a bath, story time, milk, and then we snuggle while she gets all calm. Her little head rests on my shoulder and I nuzzle up to her soft cheek, and sometimes i find myself thinking about Chandler's wedding day or when she goes to college and I just want her to stay little and snuggle. I also want her to grow up and progress. I want her to have a testimony of Jesus Christ and be able to pray to Heavenly Father, life is full of things that I am excited for her to experience. But for now, I just love my little girl.
