Apart from a growing appetite and a growing urge to always babble away, Madeleine has developed so much since my last Baby Babble post update (when she turned 6 months).
- She officially has 2 teeth! The week we arrived back from our holiday in South Korea, Mr Pham had pointed out that her second tooth was popping out, and sure enough two days later it had fully sprouted!
- She is a lot more energetic - I've noticed she's napping less during the day, she's dropped her 4:30pm nap, and has now shortened her 1:20pm nap to an hour rather than her usual 2, her 9:20am nap is still the usual 2 hours.
- She loves to sit and play than anything else - I've tried putting her in her jumperoo, and she soon loses interest after about 10 minutes, but put her in her play pen and she can stay in there for hours.
- She has yet to crawl - A few weeks ago I noticed her crawl maybe 2 steps whilst trying to grab my ipad, but then she fell flat on her stomach and gave up. Ever since then she hasn't developed in crawling but I commonly find her trying to launch herself, I've tried putting her on all fours and her arms collapse from under her heavy weight. LOL!
- Growing appetite - Last month Maddy had completely lost her appetite for any solids, especially when it was fed to her with a spoon, I found myself at battle with her when it came to her solid meals. I read up that a few babies go through that phase - mostly because they priorities playtime over mealtime and that they get turned off from utensils once they are force fed, but as a worried mum I still continued to force feed her - there was no other way. But I found within the recent weeks she's eating willingly and more than ever! (Which relieves so much of my stress).
- Twist and turn - When it comes to Maddy and her walker she now has learned how to maneuver, twist and turn herself around rather than the usual walk in a straight line until you hit the wall and stay there. Haha! I've had to pay extra attention to her when she's in her walker because she enters rooms by herself.

Her Links seem to be her favourite toy out of the bunch. |
Giving up after I tried putting her on her fours - LOL! |

You see what her growing appetite has done to her face? I LOVE IT! |
Blowing out her 7 Month cake last month at her Grandma's house. |

Mr Pham and I seem more interested in blowing out the cake than she does. |

Just a family moment |
Of course she wouldn't refuse a tiny taste of icing. |
Making a mess as per usual. How can someone so little make so much mess? Haha! |
Her and those links. |
