matilda's seven months

 Seven months!

This girl is our pride and joy!


Matilda is:

... officially a member of the tooth club! She has two little tiny front teeth! They are super sharp and she rubs them all day long. She's been teething for a while, but they finally popped through. So now she thinks she can eat all of the foods!

... the fastest little crawler! It's not quite army crawling - it looks more like a breast stroke [she'd be a great swimmer!] and about a third of the time she'll get up on her toes or her knees, and do either a plank, a pushup or an actual crawl on all fours. But regardless of which way she does it, she moves SO fast! She chases her sisters in circles around the house. She thinks she's big like them!

... starting to understand and respond to us more - she's at such a fun age. She loves when we call her name... her little face lights up every time she hears "Matilda" or "Tily" [or "Mine Tily," as Phoebe says], and it's just the sweetest thing. She babbles right back when we chat to her, and her sound repertoire is expanding! Branson is convinced she's said "dada," but I'm not so sure...

... a pretty independent gal. She will crawl around by herself, or sit in her high chair, or sit and play on the ground or in her crib for a quite some time before she needs some attention. She has figured out how to entertain herself, and is constantly so happy and content. She is my best girl!

... so loving! She gives hugs and snuggles and sloppy kisses, and they are my favorite thing! She is so sweet. She does not like conflict in our home, and she consistently smiles and giggles at each member of our family. She enjoys being with her sisters, but still snuggles her mom and dad. She's just the sweetest.
