7 months old

 How cute is this kid?

Too bad the cuteness doesn't equal sleeping well. I can't add sleeping through the night to the list of milestones C.S. has reached at 7 months. I'd settle for 3 hours straight right now.

I can't add crawling to the list of milestones either, and that's a good thing. She can slide backwards and spin in circles but no forward movement. This means that I have so far been able to prevent her from eating any of D's dozens of my.lit.tle.po.ny's.

C.S. does love eating though. We are doing Baby-led solids (thanks to B for her FB posts) and wish we would have done it 4.5 years ago with D. It's so much fun to watch her gnawing on a big strip of steak or a big hunk of watermelon. Here are some more cute baby eating pictures for everyone to enjoy.

... and a serving of stroller harness for dessert.

i set up lou's traveling-squishy-play-gym-thing in our plant room this morning and was admiring evel-boy's tree. it made me think of reid. how is his jade doing? i secretly miss how we updated each other in plant pictures.

BUT, i'm even more thrilled to see pictures of this beautiful girl.

aww glad you're doing blw! it's so much fun and less stressful IMO :)

julie, here's the fb group: https://www.facebook.com/BabyLedWeaningLetYourBabiesFeedThemselves and here's the website: http://www.babyledweaning.com/

Basically, no mush. Give babies appropriately-shaped food when they are physiologically ready for it and let them feed themselves :) J's first meal was Christmas Dinner, no purees, just chunks of potato and meat and veg :)

She just gets cuter every month...but I am sure you already know that.

Big Love, Big Acceptance - or so I say said...

7 months is pretty stinkin' cute! Hope the sleep gets better soon! (We're still waiting around here, but pretty sure some night weaning is coming Allie's way soon!).

Love the pics. :)
