7 months!

Miss Maddy James is 7 months old!! We can't believe how quickly these months have been flying by. She is still her happy, joyful, sparkly self; full of smiles, laughter, and flirty looks! She has been sitting up on her own, clapping one to two times in excitement, babbling, and she's enjoying throwing things and knocking them over (cause & effect!). She loves her chew beads, teething biscuits, and all of her baby purees (not a huge fan of avocado-which is crazy!). She loves to be held and talked to/sung to but can also play with her toys on her own for good amounts of time. She still love to watch big brother Micah more than anything else and gets super excited every time she sees him. Micah has been giving Maddy kisses and hugs and bringing her toys but he does not want her to touch HIS toys or books! Maddy is crazy ticklish and if you kiss her neck or sides she goes into fits of full on belly laughs. She is so laid back and it takes a  lot for her to get upset (unless she wakes up in the middle of the night-that's when she gets the loudest). She is always making people oooh and ahhh over her in the store because she will make eye contact with them and smile at them as they pass her. Certain people just don't it for her though, and as soon as she sees them she will make the saddest face and cry and cry. She love bath time-splishing and splashing and chewing on her duck and seahorse. If I go in the bathroom to set it up and then walk out with her in my arms to get something she starts crying like I am not going to give  her a bath. so cute.
