Update on Claudias growth, 7.5 months

After reading other peoples blogs l realize that besides the pictures, its fun to read about how their kids are growing up! Of course this could have somthing to do with the fact that l am a mother... But for all you mothers out there, this is an update on my little princess!
I am convinced that virgo babies have got to be the smartest around, (even though they can grow up to be very annoying like Claudias dear father...) After only one time on her potty, Claudia got the point right away,and now uses it every couple hours without fail, and almost immediately each time she sits down she does something in it, which she is then very proud of and claps her hands, ha! Oh yes she is clapping her hands now and thinks its great fun, her favorite song is the incy wincy spider, and she tries to mimic the motions and "sings" along. She sleeps most nights from 9:30 to 6:00, and sometimes if feeling extra lazy will go back to sleep in Mommys bed til 8:00, thank God for small favors! She makes the most adorable faces, when she knows shes being naughty she squishes up her nose, purses her lips and gets wrinkles all over her forehead and eyes, my sister calls it the Klingon face, (Star trek fans will know what l mean) and even though l think shes gorgeous she does slightly resemble a Klingon!
One thing l am very happy about is that she eats everything and anything you set before her, for lunch yesterday l blended liver with an avocado, and mixed in cod-liver oil, yuck! But she ate it like it were icecream, and even wanted more afterward ha! So her diet includes such nasty things as beetroots, fish and liver. Unfortunately now that the weather is warmer it also includes grass and little insects...
She is crawling now so when the weather is nice I lay out in the sun with her and she tries to catch the dogs tail as l try to catch some sleep, lm lucky we have a big garden as she loves to eat grass and follow the dog around.
All in all l couldnt have asked for a better baby (or cuter for that matter) she looks like a perfect mixture of me and Angelo, with my blond hair and his curls, I cant wait to see how she grows up!
