Our happy little girl...

Yana is now seven months old and starting to really develop her own personality. She's a very happy and cheerful little girl, who enjoys squeeking (sometimes very high-pitched) and making cute 'dadada' and 'nugnug' noises. She loves eating porridge, but eats most things she's given, if they are a bit runnier. Sometimes she eats in a very civilised manner, but often she likes 'helping' and ends up in a real mess.

Lying in the pram on her back is only really something for tired moments. When Yana is awake she wants to see something and then it is a lot more fun to lie on her belly in the pram looking out (something she can do for ages) or to be carried around by Daddy.

Yana is still toothless and there are no signs of any teeth yet. Mum and Dad are hoping that they will all just silently appear in her mouth one day. (One can dream...)

Yana is not quiet determined enough to crawl yet. When you try to get her to come towards you or a particular toy and it's too far away, then she just finds something else within her reach that looks interesting and plays with that instead. Usually the little tags and zippers on things. She is reasonably mobile though, by pushing herself backwards along the floor or turning around in a circle. Mum is glad that she can still predict how long it takes Yana to get to a particular area.
