7 Months

Dear Ian,

Baby boy, you are 7 months old today.

The last month has been another blur of developments and changes. You babble really well, saying strings of mama and dada, but I don't think you're addressing us quite yet. But you chatter away, and it's so neat to hear your voice! You got another tooth, and we can see both those pearly whites when you grin. 

You are becoming increasingly mobile. Not crawling yet, but does rolling count?

We can't leave you alone on the floor anymore!

You can sit up now by yourself, but it's wobbly and we have to sit right with you or you topple over. But oh my it won't be long!

You're playing with more toys now. You're fascinated by the glow worm, and you like for us to stack up blocks so you can knock them down.



We've introduced many new foods to you, and it's looking like you have a sweet tooth. You really detest squash, and giving you a bite is kinda like watching and adult take a shot of whiskey for the first time.



 You're not the biggest fan of veggies, but like all the fruits we have offered. Bananas are still your favorite!

So how do you get a baby to eat peas? You mix them with some home made apple sauce. Even the Phoebe cat wanted some!



At your well visit this month, you were still at the top og the chart for weight. And although you're definitely a chubby baby, you're starting to grow into your chub a little, if that makes any sense.

You don't seem to care that it's winter and you should be wearing socks. We CANNOT keep them on you. We joke that 5 years from know we'll be finding your socks in odd places.

Sleeping is still a huge struggle. For every step forward we seem to take 2 back.

You had your very first Christmas, and it was a blast!!! (pictures to come soon).

Is it even possible that you're over halfway to 1?

I love you so.
