I missed the 6 month, so here's the 7 month  
1) Baby Name and Age: Elizabeth Marie, 7 months 2 days

2) Weight/length/clothing size being worn: 18 lbs at 6 month check up (probably more like 19 now), 26 inches (probably longer now), wearing 9 months unless it runs small, then she wears 12 month

3) Food! Formula? Breastmilk? Combo? Solids?: Breastmilk and solids. She started solids a little under 6 months. She was always so hungry and had all the signs she was ready. I skipped the rice cereal and gave her fruits and veggies right away. She hasn't looked back since. Now we eat solids 3 times a day (about 5-6 tablespoons), and are eating the Gerber 2nds. She's still on the boob the rest of the time, but I'm trying to pump more so we can start weaning her off the boob and onto the bottle/sippy cup.

4) Sleep habits: She WAS sleeping through the night until she cut her first 2 teeth. Now she can wake up anywhere from every 2 hours to sleeping through the night. Most nights she goes about every 4 hours though. I will be glad when this teething business is over.

5) What is your baby's day like (routine?): Wake up, play, eat solids, boob, nap, wake up, play, boob, play, eat solids, boob, nap, wake up, play, boob, play, nap, wake up, eat solids, bath, play, boob, sleep (and then some boobs and sleeps during the night)

6) What is driving you crazy, if anything: If she sees me, she wants me. It's ezpecially annoying during the evening when I want to do some "me" time while Daddy watches her, but she only cries unless I'm RIGHT THERE. Her teething is driving me crazy. I've been popping Hyland's teething tablets like they're candy for her.

7) Baby milestones: Sitting up unassisted, starting to crawl, knows her name, is eating solids like a champ, rolls both ways, starting to try and pull herself up, says "dada" (but I don't think she really knows what she's saying)

8) How are you doing in general: I'm doing good. I had a little breakdown over the weekend b/c I got a migraine and she was really fussy from her gums hurting.

9) How's the love life/relationship going: It's been great. Still not having nookie nearly as much as we'd like, but it's a lot better and doesn't hurt anymore (thank God). We still cuddle and act like we did toward each other before baby most of the time. Every now and then we snap at each other, but nothing at all serious.

10) Are your health and weight loss concerns going well?: Well I joined a gym. I try and go, but a lot of times it's just not possible to go everyday. I'm trying to lose some more weight and get healthier b/c we plan on trying for number two when Lizzy turns one.
