Aubrey is 7 months old!

Aubrey has changed so much this month! She was sitting up pretty well at 6 months, but now it would take a hurricane to knock her over! She is reaching really far for toys now, so when she does get off-kilter, she just gets on her tummy and plays. She is now to the point where she gets up on all-fours and rocks a little back and forth. I foresee a mobile baby in the very near future.

Aubrey is sleeping in her own bed, in her own room which has been painted, and decorated, and  "baby-fied". She has been known to sleep all night a couple of nights a week, but for the most part, she wakes up around 3-4am and wants to be changed and fed. We give her a bottle in our room, and most nights she spends the rest of the night in our bed. This seems to work well for us and her, since she sleeps like a rock while we all get ready in the mornings. This is an unbelievable feat, since our room is like Grand Central for 4 people getting ready!

Aubrey has also officially been weaned from Mama. I hated it, but mother nature had other plans. When I came back to school, I was pumping once a day during 6th period and getting between 9-10 ounces. About 8 weeks in, I was getting 3 ounces total, and that was taking all period! Aubrey took to the bottle very well, so we're all happy about how it worked out. As for the rest of her eating, she is a hungry gal! She likes table food now, and gravy and potatoes are her favs!

Aubrey's big news now is that she now has not ONE, but TWO teeth. They are the bottom middle ones! Believe you me, she likes to use them! In general, Aubrey is the happiest baby I've ever been around, and I don't say that just because she's mine. She never gets upset over anything. She has the most contagious smile that is so big, it makes her eyes scrunch together. She is completely enamoured by Annaleigh and Alden, and will pretty much sit for any length of time as long as she can watch them. Her big sister is the best helper ever, and I fully trust her to take care of Aubrey in any way. She's that good. Alden is in love with "sissy" as well. He can't keep his hands off of her and loves to play Patty-Cake, which is her favorite game!

Have you ever seen a HAPPIER baby???

Precious Profile...

I included this one because this is what she looks like when she laughs really hard! I know her eyes are closed, but it is the funniest thing to watch her! Here, Annaleigh is standing behind me making her laugh...

In general, we are all completely and totally smitten by Aubrey Jill Baggett, and I don't think that will end any time soon!
