SEVEN

Evie Lu is 7 months old!!!

I would say she is doing a spider crawl type thing that might as well qualify as crawling.  It is a combination of one knee and one tippy toe combined with a lunge.  She also can rock back and forth on all fours.  Evie is one determined little lady.  She can get to just about anything she lays her eyes on.

Evie loves all her baby food and is learning to pick up Cheerios, but doesn't seem to understand she that they can be eaten.  She is very aware of people and has started crying when someone walks by without picking her up. 

Baby girl has also gotten good at imitating sounds.  I swear it sounds like she is saying "Hey" when someone says "Hey" to her in a high pitched voice.  It has happened twice and is so bizarre!

To say she is a busy body is an understatement.  Often times, she will just writhe around in your lap until you get the clue she wants to be put down to do her own thing.

Her favorite toy is a little rattle I had as a child.  It is from England or Germany (I can't remember) and she just loves it.  She still loves to sleep with her pink lamby and hardly needs rocking if she has that to bury her face in.  Evie loves textures and rubs her little fingers over tags and blankets.  And she also is mesmerized by moving hands.  She only sits still when she is tracking someone using their hands to talk.

She takes four 6 ounce bottles a day and eats baby food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  She is very difficult to feed because she tries to knock the food out of your hand or take it for herself.  We have also learned that you cannot eat in front of Evie without feeding her first.  She is very communicative :).
