Seven Months Old (and sick)

I can't believe a month has gone by since Megan's last monthly update. Megan continues to learn something new each day so of course this month has been great. Some of the new things Megan has learned in the last month are:


  • "repeating" sounds and facial expressions (she babbles "hi Bear" each morning)

  • she will drink from a sippy cup and not just play with it

  • she will eat carrots, peas, pears, peaches, squash, green beans and rice cereal

  • she can army crawl across the floor

  • she can sit up unsupported (as long as she doesn't know I'm not holding her)

  • she knows all about buttons on remotes and the phone

  • she has learned how to stick her tongue out knowing she will make us laugh

Today was also the first time we had to go to the doctor's when it wasn't a "well baby" visit. Yesterday Megan had a low fever and was very tired so I gave her some Tylenol and made her drink as much as she could. Then last night she slept for 11 hours straight and I think she only reason she got up was because Mark moved her. Normally she wakes up at least 2 times a night so I knew she really wasn't feeling good. Her temperature was 101.6 so I called the doctor and went in to have her checked out. She said it was probably just a cold, Megan has no other symptoms. So we just need to keep giving her Tylenol and let it do it's thing. As you can see from the picture above Megan wasn't in the mood for a photo she just wanted me to hold her, which I am doing now. ***at the doctor's today she weighed 15lbs 9 oz

Megan you have grown up so much. Mom says you are just a little peanut but from the pictures you look like you are going to tall and skinny.

I hope you feel better soon.

Love,
Angie

She's getting so big!

I love her tongue sticking out.

And, I love how you pose her the same each month on her elephant so we can see how much she's grown. What a great idea!
