Baby boy is 7 Months!


Sweet baby boy, at 7 months you:
-Sit up like a champ
-Scoot up to your hands and knees, rock a few rocks, then flop back down.  Crawling is just around the corner!
-Scoot around on your back.  It's the funniest thing to watch!  While on your back, you push with your legs to arch your back so just your head/neck and feet are on the ground and then push forward until your back is back on the ground.  Repeat. You can cover lots of ground this way!
-Still love to be on your changing table.  The moment your diaper comes off and the air hits your bottom you start kicking like crazy.  "Ahhhhhhh, Freedom!"  Also, you are so ticklish and still giggle every time you get your chubby bum wiped.
-Still have the stinkiest gas ever!!!  (I guess anyone would who only poops once a week or less!)
-Have no teeth yet.  That's fine with me, keep em in!
-Aren't liking rice and oatmeal cereal so much anymore, but love fruits and veggies, especially bananas, carrots, and sweet potatoes.
-Aren't sleeping so well. :(  You used to be my champion sleeper until you got double ear infections and super high fevers (105), followed by a cold and congestion, and now we are just trying for  stretches longer than 3 hours.  Daddy and I have a really hard time just letting you "cry it out", and lately when you wake up you just cry and cry until I get you up and feed you.  Although it's hard to get up so often in the night, I do enjoy the precious time we get to spend together during nighttime feedings.
-Love tags!  You always find the tags on your blankets and toys and suck on them.
-Love to shake your head at people, pause and grin, and then do it some more.  It's so cute!
-Love Jack and Jayci!  You love their company and smile and laugh at all the silly things they do for you!
-Love being outside.   You and I spent lots of time sitting in the grass watching Jack and Jayci play.
-Are just as cute and sweet as can be!  We absolutely love having a baby in the house again!
