7 Months



Oh Mark you are just growing up way too fast and you are just getting cuter and cuter by the day. Your first tooth came in on the twentieth and your second bottom tooth is going to pop through any day now.
You have started to move, moving backwards that is. You really love to have some alone time during the day where you are awake but not being held. You are rolling proficiently from tummy to back and back to tummy and just today you are able to get up on your knees and rock back and forth, we are in such trouble now! Everything that is in your reach though is fair game If you want and can reach it you are going to grab it.If you start getting fussy and it isn’t time for your nap and you aren’t hungry I will put you in your exersaucer and you are as happy as can be. We have all had colds this week, but I think it is a little miserable for you since you are teething and have a cold.
You still drool like crazy and have drool multiple times on Daddy’s face while he is playing with you. You started talking this week. You talk at the top of your lungs saying, ba-ba-ba-ba and ma-ma-ma-ma. I love when you are saying ma-ma-ma, I always answer you and get a huge grin back, the perfect reward!
You are wearing size 3 diapers and 12 month clothes. You still have 30-36 ounces a day and 3 meals. You don’t like baby food. I always try and give it to you but you would rather have the mash bag with an avocado or banana in it. You have had carrots, sweet potatoes, peas, green beans, bread, rice, noodles, refried beans and squash. You LOVE to poop in the middle of the night. I think you get on your belly to sleep and then all the pressure builds up. It isn’t very fun to be changing your stinky diapers at 3 am.
I don’t know why you do this little head tilt. You will usually do it when you are eating but I did catch a picture of it since you look so cute when you do it. You always tilt to your left too.
You don’t like to cuddle, you just want to be on the floor checking everything out and seeing what Katelynn is doing.  When your happy or excited your feet and hands just start spinning away, it is so cute.Your favorite game is peek-a-boo, especially if Katelynn is playing it with you. She can get you giggling so quick.
We love you so much Mark! You are just so cute and fuzzy!
