7 Months

Seven month old Katie is such a good baby.  We have a generally happy girl, but she sure is shoving those hands into her mouth so we anticipate teeth any moment!  Kate is constantly moving and comes across pretty blurry in most pictures.  Here is our little pumpkin in action...
Katie is rolling over and bearing weight on her legs like a champ.  She doesn't love being on her belly so we expect she will just start walking and avoid the whole crawling on dirty floors process.  Evenings are her least favorite time.  Katie has been snuggling her head into our shoulders when she gets tired.  It is just about the most precious thing ever.

Katie likes to keep an eye on Jacob and Jacob loves when Katie touches him or pulls his hair.  Sometimes he even says "easy Katie."  Jacob is very good to his baby sister and we hope this continues when she starts walking.  Katie is allowed to play with Jacob's toys and even hold his trains.....at least until he decides he needs that particular piece.  

Kate is also starting to sit up a little at a time as long as she has a little support.
Our sweet girl went to see Dr. Perkins on Friday and she is up to the 15.4 lbs (20th percentile) for weight and at 5.9% for length.  Kate is much smaller than Jacob, but perfectly proportionate since weight to length puts her at the 50th percentile.  No wonder our petite girl fits so well into those 3 to 6 month clothes!  

It is also starting to get chilly in Tennessee so Katie tried on some winter gear.
We love our precious girl.
