Today Annelise is 7 months old. She is getting SO big and we ar
e enjoying her more and more. Several milestones were hit this past month. She began sleeping through the night...FAB! She continues to sleep 6pm-5am. The 5am wake-up is a little painful, but Dave gets up at 5.30 anyway, so we are just going to leave it as is. She also will go back to sleep until 7.30-8, and then has a regular morning nap and an afternoon nap. Since she began sleeping through the night her nap routines have evened out as well.

She is loving the added independance and loves reaching for everything. Rolling to get things is also a nice trick from this month, anything to bother her big sister!
We started solids, but have been a bit inconsistent with it. It is just hard to get everything done in
a day and so if anything has to go it is feeding Annelise. However she has enjoyed sweet potato, oatmeal, apple, banana, and avocado. We will work on other foods this month.

She is getting some good spikey hair. It seems to be a little dark, but her eyelashes and eyebrows are red. Hard to know what is going to happen there. Her eyes look green right now, but HC's eyes didn't settle into brown until she was about a year old. Dave calls her our recessive baby, and thinks she received all the recessive genes (as in she received all of Dave's genes).
We are having more and more fun with our crazy little elf. As more time passes I feel more of a bond with Annelise. I think it was hard for me to bond with her initially because she was so fussy. But the last couple months have been fun and enjoyable. This month she will be taking her first ride on a plane.

She is absolutely beautiful. I eagerly anticipate getting to see her wrist action in person. :-)
I TOTALLY hear you on the solids thing. We just started getting consisent. I think little Jill has a slight allergy to pears. She gets all splotchy. Oh well. Jill also does a twisty wrist thing. Weird!
