Seven Months.

Yup. Seven months! I can hardly believe it myself. This kid is getting more fun by the day. From the little things he does to watching him developmentally. It's so fun.  Micah say down with him one morning and got him to start army crawling and has been doing it ever since. He is rocking back and forth on all fours and even got himself up on his toes today. He has been eating solids twice a day but this weekend started eating then at lunch time too. So far he eats applesauce, bananas, peaches, mangos, sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, and peas. So far we haven't found a food we don't like...and hopefully it stays that way. If we have something he wants, but we don't want him to have it. Better get it out of reach completely. Blake will watch were you out it (I.e. Under a pillow.) move the item the desired object is under and will grab it. He is so curious to see what's over the edge of the bed. He will not hold still for a diaper changing. This means that I already have to hold him down with my legs. He started to (knock on wood) finally wake up twice a night to eat. Usually about 4am and 6am. For some reason after the first wake up, he struggles to stay asleep for long. But he falls back asleep till 8 anyways. I have been better at putting him back in bed after he is done eating and he doesn't mind at all. He is getting much better about going to dad but still prefers mom. He loves his walker and scoots around like crazy in it. He still hates getting in his car seat but loves long car rides and doesn't mind short ones as long as he is fed. He is wearing 9 month pants because I finally broke down and bought some. I found a killer deal on them and bout a few other items as well. He started to smile more and more with his tounge and seems quite obsessed. :) I fear the day he really fully becomes mobile because I just know he will keep me on my feet. My family thinks so to. He still isn't very vocal but goes through stages where he jabbers a lot then sops for awhile. We love him to death and can't remember when life was going round without him in the center of our lives.
