7 Months

She cut her first tooth yesterday!!! When I got back from work, Frank told me to put my finger in her mouth and feel her gums, and to my surprise, I felt something sharp and pointy! There are 3 little white bumps where the tooth is breaking through. I can also see the tooth next to that one about to come up also. Wow, she's not going to be a toothless baby anymore! So of course, I am both happy and sad. Happy that she's going to finally have teeth, but sad that she's never going to be my toothless little girl anymore... Why do babies grow up so quickly? I am not ready for this at all. A couple of weeks ago, she pushed herself back up to a sitting position from her tummy. I was so proud of her! I just want to freeze her at this stage. She's so easily amused by us now. Always so happy. I'm so afraid that as she gets older, she won't want to spend all of her time with us anymore. I just want to be able to hug her and hold her all the time. She's already showing signs of wanting more independent playtime now. She's great at sitting and playing on her own in her room and she loves the freedom of roaming anywhere she wants in her walker. She's gotten really good with the walker now, she's Guinny's worst nightmare!
