Lucky Number 7


7 mo

Our little dude is growing fast as ever... passing the 7 month marker last week. He's sporting more (very blonde) hair, as well as his bottom two front teeth, which are nearly impossible to photograph thanks to a very wiggly tongue! An eager eater, Lear maintains his rotund physique and has yet to refuse any flavor of baby food - veggies, fruits and meats are all welcomed with a gaping mouth. No success with "harder" foods yet... not that he's lacking in nutrition! Teething has brought about some fits of uncomfort, but overall his disposition is bright-eyed and jolly. Not terribly mobile, Lear's content to sit and watch Avery play circles around him, so long as he's got something to chew on. If you lend your hands, he'll easily pull himself to standing and we have started working on sippy cup coordination. Mostly he loves watching his sister, practicing his consonant sounds ("ba,ba,ba"'s a fav at the moment), and started some waving with his right hand.

Official stats: 21.5 lbs (90%), 27" tall (50%)

What a Love Bug!!!!!! Just can't get enough of those chubby checks, chuncky legs and wonderful, wonderful giggles!!!! Before we know it, he will be 6 feet tall and a strapping, strong, young man. Time flys by soooooo fast! Just look at Avery. No more baby or toddler there! Yesterday she was so tiny and barely talking, today she is talking a mile a minute and helping mom with housework!!!! Enjoy these baby days, they will be gone way to soon!!!!
