7 Months Old

Michael turned 7 months old today.  He is rocking on his hands and knees like a pro.  I swear we saw him do one little army crawl yesterday....he dragged his body slightly forward using his forearms.  We don't think he really wants to crawl; he'd rather start walking after his sister.  I stood him on his feet to hold onto the ottoman and then when I tried to put him back to a sit, his arms flew straight up toward the ottoman and he wanted to stand.

So far, he likes sweet potatoes and cereal.  Today we tried carrots and he thought they were ok.  At least he didn't throw any of them up.  He is teething and chewing his bottom lip and anything else he can put in his mouth.  Michael will say "dadadada," and laugh with Lauren.  We never get tired of this.

He sat in the bucket swing for the first time this weekend and loved it.  I'm told Chris loved the swing as a baby too.  He almost fell asleep in it with the warm breeze and swaying yesterday.  He's starting to pack on a few pounds for the next growth spurt.

We love you Michael!
