Mimi comes again

6 months, 4 weeks, um, well, she'll be 7 months old in 6 days
Sleep: ok
Savannah had her 6 month checkup on September 1. She's doing great. She weighed in at 13 lb. 11 oz., and she was 25 1/4" long. Dr. Tucker found a heart murmur which we are going to have checked out by a pediatric cardiologist on the 21st. It's most likely nothing to worry about, but we are just taking precautions, since she is going to have surgery to remove her extra thumb sometime soon. Speaking of her extra thumb, that is her thumb of choice now. She chews and sucks on it so much that it just turns bright red. I guess I'll let her enjoy it while she still can. Mimi came to town on Friday afternoon. Savannah recognized her right away and flashed her a great big smile. And then in church on Sunday, she kept doing her little squealy laugh and tried to talk to Mimi, so we had to go to the nursery. She's making a little progress crawling wise. She's on all fours now, but she doesn't move very far, just a few inches. However, she's learning. She's sitting up very well...with no hands. One day she was supporting herself with her hands, the next day she was using both hands to pick up her toys and swing them all over the place, and she didn't fall over one time. Oh, we were at Mom's the other day, and Savannah was playing on her blanket. I'd scattered a few toys about a foot away from her so she could practice crawling. She tried to crawl a few times, and then I guess she decided that was enough of that, so she grabbed a section of the blanket and pulled on it till she could reach all of her toys. It was so funny. Oh, and she's been eating solids just fine. She's tried a lot of different fruits and veggies, and so far she's only had a problem with carrots. Next month we are starting on meats and stuff. Woohoo! Anyway, I gotta go, going over to Mom's to see Mimi. Later.
