7-25-09 While out camping we discovered her first tooth had come in. It's her bottom right front tooth. She never did any fussing or anything. All of a sudden I just noticed a white thing in her mouth. As the fat part of the tooth is coming in she seems to be more sensitive to hot or cold foods, but otherwise she's still not bothered by it.
7-31-09 She opened her first cabinet door in the kitchen and spilled a container of toothpicks.
8-2-09 She sat in a chair and drank a bottle all by herself. She finally figured out how to hold the bottle without handles and get all of it into her mouth during the last month so we don't always have to feed her. Sometimes it's still enjoyable to hold our baby while we feed her. She won't be a baby for too much longer!
This month she also learned how to point with her right index finger. She thinks it's a great game to point and have people point back at her.
She's eating more fruits and vegetables than last month. We've also added chicken, beef, and pork to her diet. Our home scale says she's up to 21.6 pounds. She's growing like a weed!
She's a pretty vocal baby. Her "words" include da, ma, ga, ra, ba, woe, dee. A couple times I heard her put "da" and "dee" together while she was babbling.
