Baby C: 7 months

Man! Seven months old already?
  • Still so doggone smiley!  Someone asked me this month if he ever cries.  Well, yes.  Yes he definitely does but he is probably one of the happiest creatures on this planet.
  • Loves to eat his solid foods.  So far little man has enjoyed the such fine delicacies as carrots, butternut squash, peas, green beans, peas, pears, peaches, oatmeal, rice, kidney beans, bananas, applesauce, and sweet potatoes.
  • Beginning language skills like pairing vowel and consonant sounds such as "ba-ba-ba" "bla-da" "bwa-baw"
  • Growls while eating.  When I'm feeding him solids, he growls between bites like a little tiger waiting for his next bite.
  • Has definitely mastered rolling over and around and hither and yon.
  • Excellent hand to mouth coordination and reaching to grab things to bring into his mouth.
  • Very social but definitely a momma's boy.
  • We've had a little revertion in the sleeping through the night issue but a couple of nights ago I let him cry himself to sleep.  (Mostly because I was sick and exhausted and had to go to bed.)  He screamed like a banshee until he fell asleep and slept through the night.  Last night I put him down drowsy but awake -- not a peep for 9 hours.  Hopefully we're getting back up to speed here.
  • Defninitely having some constipation issues -- like everyday.  I'm trying to increase his pear intake to help and thinking of adding in a few ounces of prune juice a day.
  • We just love having this delightful little guy around all the time!
