7 months (+ 1 day)


We feel like we've been watching one of those time-lapse videos where the hands on the clock spin around and around, super fast... you know the one...

Our Little Dude is not so little anymore. He is changing so much every day. For instance, yesterday he figured out how to shake his head back and forth (like he is saying "no"), and now it is his favorite thing to do, EVER. He is sitting up, pretty well... he still needs the occasional Mama interference from the floor, but he's getting it. Most days he can roll both ways (front to back & back to front), and he's practicing getting up onto his knees, but only in his crib - at night.

He still loves food, and has so far eaten sweet potatoes, apples, carrots, peas, pears, and the beloved prunes. Oh, how he loves the prunes. The hands start moving fast from side to side whenever he realizes it's time to eat. Ah, just like his Mama.

Our hearts melt whenever he smiles, which he does often. He is really a happy Dude. Just recently he started giving "kisses", which means slobbering all over your face and chewing on your nose... now THAT gets us every time.

We folks in S.O. don't get to see little O very much but we sure enjoy your site entries. Oh, that little fellow is growing.

Love to you all!
