Beth ( 7 months )

Beth is now 7 months old.
In one of these pictures she's eating a cookie (o.k. she's slobbering on it and making it really gooey, but she's having fun doing it).

She had PDA correction (heart surgery to close the ductus) on December 1, 1998. Since then she is like a different baby. She is awake a lot now. She still loves to watch her big brother play. She laughs a lot.

When she wants to play she will wait until you look at her and then she gives you a big smile and you can't help but stop and play with her then. She has been rolling from her back to her tummy for a while now, but she still hasn't rolled from her tummy to her back. When she rolls over she will now lay there for a little while and then she screams until someone comes and turns her back over.

Beth is now starting to outgrow size 3-6 month clothes. YEAH!!!!! Her last dr visit she was still just under the growth curve on the chart, but she really looks like she has grown a lot to me. She most definately is a little lady, she loves to look at herself in the mirror. Her newest trick is to stick her tongue out and to push her bottom lip out with her tongue. She has an activity gym and since her surgery she has really started to play with it a lot.

I guess I've bragged enough for this time. I'm just so happy about how much better she is doing since her surgery.
