7 mo update

Viv's two front teeth are coming in nicely - they are about 1/3 of the way emerged. They look like 2 little bumpy stumps and she looks so much older! With all her hair and now teeth, her days of looking really little are way over.

She is in LOVE with Mei Li. Last night, she was screaming and screeching when she saw him. Everywhere he walked, she twisted and turned to keep him in her sights. She was also jumping up and down in my lap and biting my shoulder, which she does when she is excited. She loves her doorway bouncer and has even taken to trying to "bounce" in her exersaucer, which creates a lot of noise and makes it sound like she's going to break the thing.

She will not drink from a bottle, but Daddy gave her a cup of water today and she drank from it. I'm worried she's not getting enough fluids because she is eating so much. She's on her 3rd or 4th box of Oatmeal baby cereal which she loves and we mix her fruits and veggies into it. I've been making it up more on the soupy side so she can get more fluid in her diet. She still nurses, but I don't have the quantities of milk I used to now that she eats so much food.

We went to the Monterey Aquarium on New Year's Eve and this video is of her in a restaurant afterward. She was so tired she was eating herself to sleep.
