7 Months and some change

7 months

For some reason, 7 months seems so old to me. 6 months was a big one since we started to introduce foods then, but this one seems different. This has been a great month. Filled with enjoying each other, learning more about "us", exploring and observing, sleeping, spinning and 360s. So these are some things to remember:

- wears 12-18 month clothes, at least 18 month if it is a onsie

- sleeps in his own room now

- has added yogurt and a plum to his eating list but still devours his sweet potatoes

- gives me great hugs

- waves goodbye (to himself that is, he has no idea what it means)

- gets on all fours and is thinking about crawling...may be??

- no teeth

- still LOVES to stand

- fascinated with the blinds in the living room

- looks up or out the window when he hears the geese flying by

- loves to be swung

- great whole body laugh and smile

- tries to pull himself up on just about everything, only successful once I think?

- loves animals right now

- thinks the pillows on our bed are hilarious right before bedtime

- likes to rub his feet on the ground outside

- fascinated with reflections

- really watches the little bit of sign language we have introduced to him

- knows when I say 1...2...3 something awesome is about to happen

- ticklish feet

- if he is on his belly and want to get to you he tries to swim over instead of crawl, and I mean swims hard!

- can sit and play with the wood stove in the living room by himself for a very long time, likes the rug he sits on equally well, thanks ma!

- sings very loud at an evening service we have been going to

I know there is much more! Looking forward to another month with my family of 3!
