Ellie at 7 Months

Ellie turned 7 months old on Saturday!  We had a great day together including attending her friend Sophia's first birthday party.  We left the big kids at home, so it was just Mommy and Ellie.

It has been an interesting month for Ellie.  We went from sleeping through the night 100% of the time to sleeping through the night about 70% of the time.  We're not sure what is causing this not so fun phase, but it's not ears (I had them checked) and we are still toothless.  She loves to snuggle in Mommy and Daddy's bed, and when she falls back to sleep, Daddy moves her back to her crib. 

Although she's not sleeping the best, she's still the happiest baby!  She is sitting up without any help and she has started scooting around on the floor.  We limit her floor time because her big brother loves to lay on top of her when she's scooting around.  She has also started holding her bottle.  I'm sure the next month will bring lots of changes including teeth and crawling, so we are trying to enjoy every last second of this phase!
