I always seem to say the same thing at these monthly photo shoots, but seriously, time just flies!!! He is 7 months. That is more than 1/2 a year old. Crazy! Especially because it seems like we are just getting to know him. And he seems so much younger than I remember Emma being at this age.
Normally, he is so easy going. He gets so excited to watch Emma and will start jumping in our laps or wherever he is, laughing & giggling. He seems to be a sensitive little guy, usually looks at me in horror when Emma is being put in time out. And, he FINALLY started sleeping through the night. He usually lets out a short cry around 2am but seems to go back to sleep, waking between 5:30 and 6. We are getting there!
He is eating tons of different foods right now, and prefers to feed himself. Fine by me :) We have been practicing standing while holding on to toys, but crawling seems to be a long ways away. I don't know if he will EVER be able to lift his big belly off the floor!
I think he is learning to sign "more".....but we were teaching him that during meals, the same time we were teaching him to give kisses. And now, when he is eating, he keeps making the kissing face- which makes me think he is a little confused as to which sign actually means "more".
Teething. Yuck! He doesn't seem to have a high tolerance for pain, and definitely just wants to be held when he isn't feeling well. Jackie kept blowing on his cheeks, which we think made his gums feel better because it seemed to put him into a comatose state!!
Look at that love. I never get enough of it! Of course.....
that was before he realized he was sitting in a crib full of pee! Emma kept leaking out of her diapers at night while we were in FL.... I didn't even notice it until I pulled her out of the crib that morning, but looking back at the pictures, you can totally tell. Gross.
"get me outta here!"
Potty training....no fun at all. Emma is still working on it, and usually does pretty well, but I think we have some more work to do! And look what happens when I leave Levi alone with Aunt Jackie too long.....
Is he not just the cutest little thing in the world? When I pick him up, I put him over my shoulder and pat his back. Recently, he has started patting my back at the same time. And if he is in my bed in the morning, he usually wakes me up by gently caressing my cheeks with his fingers. Such a little doll, I just want to squeeze him!
