7 Months

Baby girl is already 7 months!  She is an excellent sitter these days and her new fun trick is clapping.  It is adorable and she is so proud of herself.  She was very quick to learn that she gets lots of attention when she claps, so she's been using it to her advantage - we love it though!  Still no teeth but a whole, whole bunch of drool.  She is working towards crawling, but hopefully it is still a ways away.  She is lunging towards things in front of her and loves for you to grab her hand and help her up to a standing position.  My prediction is that she starts crawling right around Christmas time when we have the tree and presents and all kinds of things that are not good to have out when you have a curious crawler on your hands! 
 As soon as Thanksgiving dinner was put away Addy decided Thanksgiving was over and it was time to decorate for Christmas.  Here is Ella reaching for the singing snowman that she found to be quite interesting.

Poor Ella.  Seems like everything Addy pulls out is apparently meant to be a hat for Ella - in this case it was a Christmas tree that Susan knitted for us last year.  Pretty much anything that is round ends up on Ella's head at some point it seems.  Ella's #1 line of defense at the moment is hair pulling, which we don't encourage, but sometimes you can't really blame her!
