Je m'appelle Le Coquette. Je veux sucer votre visage

[...thanks Babelfish translator, my french is maison de merde.]

I love this photo of Scout – she does this funny thing with her tongue when she smiles, like she’s a frikkin’ coquette or something (more pics at my flickr account).

Seven Months Cheeky
Seven Months Cheeky (click to enlarge)

Inspired by 2 Pink Lines (fellow mum), I thought a list of Scout’s achievements at the 7 month mark was in order…

  • Can sit for long periods of time unattended and balances herself to play with toys.
  • Can pull herself up on all fours from her belly where she rocks back and forth attempting to crawl.
  • Sucks my face (slobbery, wot) if I say “Kiss for mama”. We have tested this to see if it’s coincidence or a genuine reaction, and she won’t (yet) do it if we say “Kiss for papa” (insert horrid little proud moment here).
  • Commando crawls backwards/sideways.
  • Works to get a toy just out of reach.
  • Can roll over from front to back (no banana on the back to front front yet).
  • Can remember people and gets excited (like the baby in the Huggies ad) when people she likes walks into the room, or thoroughly bored if she’s seen them a zillion times before.
  • Reacts to voices, particularly when you say “Sophia Scout!!!!! Where’s your cute little pout???”
  • Reaches out to touch babies and toddlers, often pulling hair (?%^&*!!), most often from babies who, alas, don’t have much hair.
  • Has amassed a tidy sum of nicknames including Button, Bellynicebelly, Ladybird (she loves ‘em!), Moo, Boomanchu (whenever she’s having a grizzle), PucciPucci & Budd (short for Buddha).
  • No teeth yet but very fat pot belly.
  • Cannot yet speak French. Or English for that matter.
