7 months

 
Hello 7 month baby. I keep telling people he is only 6 months, ah he is just growing so fast. I can't believe we are on the downhill to one year!

This is Owen waiting for his 6 month doctor appointment.

This month Owen:

-is 19.38 pounds (80%) and 26.5 inches (52%)

-travelled to Danville for his first Christmas

-got 2 bottom teeth over Christmas break (teething is not fun)

-got up on his hands & knees and rocks, but no crawling

-still can't roll belly to back

-very independent, wants to do everything himself

-a finicky nurser. if i shift, or he hears a noise, he is done.
-has mastered sitting up
-loves to eat/slobber on cardboard, strings, and tags
-naps 1-2 hours 3x a day! and sleeps at least 12 at night (with just one night feed) 
-is a master at putting his soother in.
