7 Months Old

As a 7 month old, Miss Riley Cameron weighs approximately 14 1/2 pounds. She is a very busy girl and is constantly squirming and reaching out for things. Very happy and very vocal, she will always let you know what she is thinking. She is very close to crawling - when put on her tummy she rocks back and forth on all fours and tries to reach out for an object that's in front of her. From a sitting position, she lunges forward on her arms and attempts to grab something. One thing Riles absolutely LOVES is food. She has tried a bunch of new foods - scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, pizza, mac & cheese and squash, just to name a few. Most of the time we can't feed her fast enough - she starts making "mmm" noises until she gets the next mouthful. It's a good thing she likes food because she also got her first tooth! She had one pretty restless night before the tooth finally popped through, but overall was a pretty good sport about it. As far as a normal sleep routine goes, she has gotten into a pattern of napping at about 10 and 2 during the day, and sleeping at night from 7:30pm to 6:30am with one wakeup just to eat and go back to sleep. She also will typically take a catnap between 5-6pm but is slowly phasing that out as she no longer seems to need it when she takes longer naps during the day.
