My Guy


Better late than never, eh? This is his 7 month shoot from today. He did good but he was pretty tired, so not quite as wild as usual.
We went to the doctor the other day and he really is in the 5%. He's 15 lbs 2 oz. So tiny! He looks healthy to me and with all of his movement, I think he's just burning it off.
To bed around 8 or 8:30. We still aren't sleeping well, usually up twice a night to eat, however last night was an unusual not at all. I dream fed him at 11 and then he didn't get up until I woke him to eat at 6. I'm learning to cope with it as it really does seem to me that he's hungry. If offered a bottle by B he takes it all, so it's not just me that he wants. Takes 2 naps a day- usually about an hour or 90 minutes each. He's pretty flexible about it though.Doesn't really like the baby food thing. He will take a couple of bites but then turns his head and screams if I try to hard. I'm trying not to get frustrated about it and just let him lead me. I know that eventually he WILL eat...it's just a matter of patience.
He crawls everywhere and pulls up on everything. He can climb stairs (as Pepper found out at her house last week) but usually stays off of them (except the one in the bathroom). He is very steady when he gets up and looks all around just steadying himself with one hand. He tried to take off the other day- turned around and tried to nearly walk to whatever it was he wanted, but he didn't make it. I guess you could say he "cruises" but it's not very coordinated.We have teeth! Saturday his first bottom tooth came through and I think the other is through today, but it's hard to tell. He has done really well and no rash like M always had! Woohoo!!! We've been using up the teething tablets though!

He is too cute. You had a black and white pic of him and he looks just like you. Be ready to get even busier. Sounds like it is a matter of time that he is going to be every where.

He is so photogenic and even cuter in person! Great pics.
