7 months old

Rilyn is 7 months old today!  She has been tons of fun and amazes us everyday!

Rilyn is eating tons of solid foods now.  For example, last night at Meg and Clint's amazing wedding dinner she ate nectarine, green beans, cauliflower, carrots, blueberries (smashed) & pasta.  She is definitely starting to eat whatever we are eating and dinner has been tons of fun.  She is still drinking lots of b-milk, but saves her thirst for that when I am home.  She is probably drinking about 8 ounces while I'm at work but then will nurse 3 - 4 times before bed. 

Rilyn was sleeping through the night for about 2 weeks, it was amazing.  However, last week she stopped. What????  I'm hoping she starts again, but I'm afraid she is making up for the lost ounces of b-milk during the day.

It could be teething too....she did get a tooth last Sunday!  It is tiny and barely poking through but it is there!

Rilyn is moving all over the place (rolling).  She sets her eyes on something and the next thing I know she is over there putting whatever it was she wanted in her mouth.  She did crawl a tiny bit on Friday.  So, I'm sure that is right around the corner.  She loves being with Tyler and I, and likes all the little games we make up.  Especially Tyler's games.  She likes being on the move and around lots of people.  We hope that characteristic sticks around awhile. 

She imitates many sounds we make.  She especially likes the game at the dinner table when her and Tyler go mmmm all through dinner.  She is also sucking her thumb...finally.  She's only been trying since she was born but I think she finally has it down.

She is awesome and we love her so much.  Life was so boring without her!
