It just struck me again, as it does daily, how different boys and girls are. I always sort of expected Evie to be a lot like Noah. This isn't the case...at all. Already at 7 months we can tell how different they are. She is sooo much more interactive and relational than he was or is. A good word to describe Noah is FOCUS. Whatever he's doing, he's super-tunnel-vision-can't-hear-anything-else FOCUSED. Evie's all about looking at you and talking and laughing and imitating sounds. She catches on quick. They're so different. When someone new (or even an established relationship) tries to talk to Noah, he either looks at them like they're weird or he screams and runs away. Evie puts on the charm. Gotta watch out for that one. So anyway.

Evie watching longingly. Poor thing. She can't wait to move.
Oh. Now that I've mentioned Evie moving, I might as well tell you that she is making progress. She can sit unassisted quite well and only occasionally falls. We laid her on her belly the other night and were shocked to see her lifting her bottom up and sort of kicking and pushing with her feet. She was moving backwards! Since that night she's been kind of rotating in a circle when we put her down. She won't roll over from her stomach to her back but will from her back to her stomach. Noah was like that too though.
I would put up a video of her scooting, but it's too long or something and won't work. Sorry!
