Almost 7 months!!!

I can't believe Ava is almost 7 months old! I've fallen behind on my posts this month. Ava is getting so big...well developmentally anyways! Ava is such a happy baby. She is happy most of the time. She only fusses when she is over tired, hungry or hurt herself. She has been very very busy! She is starting the teething process. She has two tiny bumps on her lower gums and you can almost see the teeth popping through. She is very vocal. She loves to squeal and blow very wet raspberries. She spits or blubs her lips together, especially when we are eating. She has more control with her hands and her leg movements. She can stand for a few seconds (up to a minute) holding on to something. She enjoys walking when we hold her up. She can now flip from back to front and front to back (it was only back to front before). When she is on her tummy she can do a complete 360 on her stomach. She can push herself backwards on her back. She can sit up pretty well on her own. She can hold her own bottle, grab for it and put it in her mouth all by herself. She can grab her pacifier (nuk nuk) and put it in her mouth all by herself. Last weekend (February 13) was her first adventure to the park. She loves the swings! She enjoyed the park. I took her three times last weekend. It was fun. And we had such nice weather. Last weekend we had a short visit with my Uncle Jamie! Ava enjoyed spending some time with him and getting to know him a little better since he was able to hold her this time! On Valentine's Day we made a surprise visit over to Uncle Steve and Aunt Billie's house. Ava had a great time playing with her cousins, Luka and Juno.
