7 months old

Not too much has happened since last month, but here are some new things:
-She is so close to crawling. She does this little side scoot thing and can scoot backward, but hasn't gotten going with the real crawl yet.
-However, she LOVES to stand. She can stand by herself when holding onto or pressing against pretty much anything, and she wants to do it all the time. She's so happy and proud of herself when she's standing. she will also walk holding onto someone's fingers. It's so funny to see her tiny body move upright like that! 
-She is making tons of new noises and sounds, but still remains faithful to her "shrieking noise" most of the time. But she is starting to put more sounds with it like "ba, ma, goo, boo" it's fun to see her little mouth moving and different sounds coming out.
-She is developing more of her own personality and it's so adorable. She gets a little shy sometimes but overall is really happy and fun. I love how much she smiles and how happy she is.
-She loves eating, especially fruits. I have to force down the green beans and peas are still a definite no. Whenever i try to give her peas she'll swallow and then make a gagging noise and make this face at me like "that's horrible! i can't believe you just fed me that!" It makes me laugh. She does like some veggies though, just not green ones.
-Her hair is getting longer and poofier. The cowlicks in the back are starting to really take their effect and she has an "alfalfa" hair do everyday. I've tried combing it down but it doesn't really work.
-She likes to put everything in her mouth. But what she really loves is putting things that she sees other people put in their mouths... like spoons, straws, water bottles. I think she likes anything to be in her mouth but when its something that is accepted, she loves it.
-her outfits are a little bit hodge-podge these days as she makes the transition into 6-12 month clothes. She still fits into some of her 3-6 month ones, and then some things i think totally still fit until i put them on and as she is wearing them I notice the shirt is incredibly tight, or the sweater is hiked up her tummy, or the pants are now capris. poor girl.. sometimes staying in jammies is the only answer.
