7 Months

My baby is 7 months old today! Wow! What a sweet, precious, fun boy he is!! Here are some updates...
- His first tooth broke through today (I felt it while he was chewing on my chin)
- He's sitting up pretty well on his own, though he has a tough time rebalancing if he gets off kilter, so I can't leave him on his own yet
- He loves playing on his tummy, and he's scooting a little (primitive crawl) to get to toys, though most of the time to get something, he'll roll to it
- He's babbling a lot, and his favorite syllabyl is "bah"
- He's eating a good variety of foods, including rice cereal, vegetables, fruits, and meat/veg/fruit mixtures
- He's outgrown his bouncer seat--after seeing him pull himself up on the toybar and then try to get out the side (almost toppling over), I decided we better retire it
- He wakes up happy in the morning now. He'll often lay in bed and coo a while (10 minutes or so) before letting us know he wants to be fed (aka fussing)
- I had to move the jumperoo up the next height, and he's just loving bouncing around in it. His legs are getting awfully strong from all of that exercise

Grandmom has been in town this past week for a visit, and she and Isaiah have had lots of QT. It was nice for Isaiah to have so much one-on-one time during the week, and she helped out a lot around the house so we could have more quality time with him in the evenings. We'll miss you, Gmom!
