Mireya turned 7 months on October 5th. I can't believe how time seems to be flying! Mireya has changed so much and she is learning new things every day. In the last couple of weeks, she has started to say, "Mama." I love it! I don't think she completely connects the name to me yet, but I'm just thrilled she's saying it. She is also babbling all kinds of other things too. Also, she has been trying to crawl. At first she would plant her forehead on the ground, pull her knees up and then she would lift her head and move her arms forward. As of today, she is actually crawling. I can't believe how fast she can move. Our kitties better watch out!
I noticed on Saturday, the 9th, her first tooth broke through the gums! It is the bottom left, front tooth. I can't wait to see what she looks like with two little teeth! It has taken months just to see the start of these two teeth. I can only imagine what the next year is going to be like. Mireya has even learned to share. She sucks on her binky for a minute and then tries to stick it in my mouth. She gets so excited if I pretend to take it.
Mireya is pretty healthy these days. She just got over her latest ear infection. It took two antibiotics and nearly a month. It's a matter of time before she gets ear tubes according to her pediatrician, so we're just trying to delay them as long as possible. She is growing like crazy. She now weighs 15 pounds 11 ounces. She still eats really well and she just started on finger food. I have been giving her these little melt in your mouth treats that taste like yams, her favorite. She sits in her high chair looking very serious when she's eating them. She is getting better and better at using a pincer grasp to pick them up.
New videos coming soon!
