Seven Months

 Ethan Month Seven

I can’t believe another month has gone by! It is crazy how fast Ethan grows and how fast he changes. You can tell by his picture that he just keeps getting taller.

20 pounds (Only 2 pounds away from a new car seat. I am dreading this!)

He is always babbling away. He loves to say “Mama” all the time. Although, he doesn’t actually know what it means.

He is teething. This means that my pro sleeper is not such a pro anymore. He still sleeps through the night and if he wakes up it is just once. It is more of the naps that he struggles with.

I can’t decide if he will be crawling soon or not. Some days he’s almost got it and then other days he is completely clueless. I haven’t been preventing him from learning to crawl, but I haven’t exactly been encouraging him either. So that is why I think it is so fascinating that he is figuring it out on his own. It is not like there is anyone at the house crawling around showing him how it is done. I just can’t keep him off his tummy anymore. He will get himself into the crawling position anyway that he can. Then he tries so hard to use his legs to push himself forward. Mostly he just turns himself in circles or goes backwards rather than moving forward, but he will get it eventually.

He loves to stand on his own, while holding onto something of course.

He has started to pull himself up. If there is ever something at his level that he can grab onto, he grabs a hold and pulls himself up. Some days I think he may walk before he crawls.

His favorite toys are still not toys. He loves the tags on anything- clothes, stuffed animals. His favorite toy to play with on his jumperoo is the price tag.

He loves peas, carrots, apples and bananas. He hates sweet potatoes and pears. He likes all of his food cold. He wont take a bottle or solid if it is warm.

He LOVES people. He loves going to the store or anywhere in public because he gets to give so many smiles. He especially loves babies. Anytime he sees a picture of a baby he gets so excited!

We love you Ethan!
