7 months



Highlights:
A week before you turned 7months you were weighed at the pediatrician 17 lbs 1 oz and 27 ½ inches
Just after you turned 6 months we started you on solid foods; rice cereal, bananas, applesauce, sweet potatoes, squash, pears, green beans, peas, etc, etc, etc…
You hated solid food at first…would make nasty faces and even shivered in disgust sometimes. We were cracking up, it was cute :)
You have started to bite mommy while nursing since you got those 4 teeth last month. Not fun!
You got teeth 5 and 6 on April 22nd; the biting continues; sad!
We switched you into size 3 diapers even though you don’t really need to be, you are barely at the lowest weight mark of 16lbs, but it helps with “no blowouts’
You are wanting to crawl so bad! You look like you’re about to do it any second. Until then you roll all-over-the-place-all-the-time!
You learned how to splash in the tub
You have this new crazy high pitched squeal that you let out at random
You’re slowly transitioning into 6-12 months clothes
Still sleeping through the night :)
Sleep in your crib
You love falling asleep with something near your face, blankie, burpie, etc…
You are no longer swaddled, we stopped that shortly after you were six months and you also sleep in your crib now in your own room.
You try to pull yourself up to sitting up from a lying down position. If you have something on both sides to use you usually have success.
One of your favorite toys is a water bottle…who needs toys?
you started going to gymboree classes
first earthquake! a 7.2!
You are an absolute joy not only to mommy and daddy but anyone close enough to engage it that million dollar smile.
