7 months of fun!

Wow,
Even looking back at the post a couple of weeks ago, there is already a TON of changes! Here is the list of things that Zoe does now... at 7 months old. ( I realize that I am two weeks late, but hey.. I'm a little busy these days!)

Zoe.... here is what you do these days:

-Sit up... all by yourself. You are getting to be a pro at popping right up on your booty.
-Crawling. Although you have done this for a while now, you are officially getting to be "good".
  you zoom all over the house now. In fact, you are pretty darn fast!
-Eat. Wow, do you eat! Last night we laughed because we are pretty sure you are having a growth spurt. You drank your bottle, ate a whole jar of sweet potatoes, some baby oatmeal, and some baby applesauce. Your belly was about to pop.. but you even wanted more. I stopped you. :)
- You love to pull up on things now. This really just started about a week or so ago. We caught you standing up in your crib.... YES, standing! Oh dear... you are definitely going to wear us out earlier than we expected!
- You love to drink out of cups... for whatever reason, you are not a huge fan of your sippy cup. You chew it, but prefer a straw/cup better.
- You had your first halloween dress up experience. I was proud to show you off as a piggy, and a lion. you cheesed it up!
-You LOVE shopping with mommy. When we are at the grocery store you just "talk" and wave to everyone. You sit in the big girl seats now, and have done this for a little while. This is nice because I don't have to carry your car seat in anywhere, anymore.
-You like to try all kinds of foods. At first I thought you were picky, but now that your tastebuds have tried new things, you will mostly eat all baby foods... and people foods if we let you.
- You are most happy when around people, especially kids. I am pretty sure you try to play with anything your size.... puppies, kids, etc. You are for sure a little social bug.
- You love hide and seek. :) You are never scared when we pop out to "boo" you, but you giggle. You also like to crawl around the corner and "boo" us. Here lately, you love to be tickled on your belly and will laugh and giggle like crazy!
- Your first " official" word, other than when you said bye once, is now DADDA! I wouldn't have believed it, but you say it every time your daddy comes in the room. Grrrr....... :)
-You had your first little "bump and bruise" the other night. You were trying to stand up using your baby einstein playgym and you accidentally ended up knocking it over on your head. You fell backwards, bumped the  back of your head, and the gym fell on the front of your head. :( You cried for a few minutes, but then went on playing!
-You still love going to your babysitters three days a week. When I say, are you ready for " Mrs. Julie's" you get excited. :) This makes it much better for mommy to leave you!
-You love your mommy and daddy! You know us now, and even know our sounds and faces.
- Your mimms comes and keeps you a lot on Fridays. You love to play with her!
-You are about 18 pounds, but I bet you will stay the same, or lose since you are super active.
- You are a little ham. You cheese it up for pictures, and are about the happiest baby I truly have ever seen. I am not saying this because you are mine, but I am really thankful for your fun personality! We love you!
-You have gotten your crib fixed where you can't crawl over! Daddy went to home depot and got your crib "Zoe" proofed.

I am sure that there are many things I am forgetting, but mostly... we love you! We are having such a fun time with you each and every day. Here are some pictures!
