Well Sydney sure is growing fast but really that is no surprise cuz all babies grow up way to fast. I think that they should stop doing that so we can enjoy them being little longer. She is 7 months old now and She has been changing so much over the past month.
On January 30, 6 months to the day, she started to pull herself forward a little. Then on February 27 she started to actually crawl. Yeah for her. She just goes form room to room. Today she was playing with the patio door. That amused her for a long time.
The things that amuse babies are the simplest things around. I think that I might just stop buying toys and give her a piece of paper and a cardboard box and she would be entertained for hours.
She has been sitting up on her own for the past couple of months but not she has mastered how to sit herself up.
She is also pulling herself up onto everything. She really likes the TV stand, which I am not a fan of her playing with because its glass and I am afraid of her hitting her head on it. So I decided to just put a blanket over it to keep her away for it. Hopefully that will work.
Lately she has been having trouble sleeping and having naps. During the day she will only have 1 or maybe 2 naps but they never go past a hour, and if we make it that long I am lucky. The only way I can make her sleep is if I wrap her up like a Mummy. I use to do that all the time when she wasn't so wiggly but now I have to do it again. We went for like 2 months without doing it and we could put her to bed awake and wouldn't her a peep from her all night. Thank heaven for who even thought to swaddle babies because its a life saver for me.I think maybe it her teeth that have been bugging her..... at least that is what i am going to blame it on.
I took her to the doctor for a check up because she had not been to one since she was 3 months old. She weighs 18 pounds... She is pretty chunky well actually only in the legs.
She also loves to play in the mirror. She gets so excited to see herself. She just shakes. It too cute.

Here are some recent photos of her.
