7 months old


What a sweet little guy you are! Even though I don't think it is possible, I LOVE you more and MORE each day!! You are now 7 months old and you are keeping your mom and dad busy with a capital B! I will begin by saying that you love to watch Wheel of Fortune! Ha! It is so funny to watch you smile and stare at the TV as if you are in a trance! Something about the color and the ding the letters make when Vanna turns them over just pulls you in! You are not like that with any other show, Hilarious!

You weigh 20 pounds and 6 oz, and are somewhere between 28-30 in tall. We do know that you are just about as tall as your cousin Hadley who is 10 months older than you. Your weight is still proportionate to your height, but that said you are a big boy! You are still wearing size 3 diapers and miraculously you are wearing some 6 month onesies but mostly 6-9 month and 6-12 month clothes! Right now you are being picky and do not like the baby food that you liked just a week ago. All you care for right now is applesauce and nothing else is getting in to your buttoned lips. It is so cute when you turn your head and let us know that you are NOT eating the food. You are slowing down on your formula feedings and are eating 6 oz every 4-5 hours. You are finally back to sleeping at night, HALLELUJAH!!! You are also sleeping in your own bed every night! For the last 3 weeks you have been sleeping anywhere from 8-14 hours a night, WOW what a quick turn around!

Just last night I was letting you gum down on my finger and I felt your first little tooth poking through!! You have one of your front bottom teeth! I am sure many more will follow now that you have officially begun teething.

You are still not crawling, but that doesn't stop you from getting where you need to go. You are v-e-r-y close!! You have begun to hike up one leg but just can't get going...your daddy has even tried to show you what to do :) We will just wait until you are ready.

You are very busy and grab at everything within your reach!! You are still a jumper! The bouncer should be worn out by now with all the daily abuse that you give it!

You went to your first sunday school class and you loved learning about Jesus and "reading" your Bible. It is so important that you are raised in a family of faith and know the word of God. We will be dedicating you to the church in the next few weeks and I could not be more proud to raise you with such a wonderful church family. The same one that has helped raise me all my life!

Your dad and I are so so blessed to have one healthy, active, precious little boy! We thank God for you every single day and we do not take one second of our amazing life for granted!
