7 months

In the past month you have:
Gotten 6 teeth
Sat by yourself
Crawled like a worm
Crawled like a real baby
Stood in your crib holding on
Stood up against any surface without having to hold on
Walked? awkwardly along furniture
Climbed on top of anything you can-bags, luggage, toys, piles of laundry
Stolen toys from sister
Gotten toys stolen from you(you notice now& get mad)
Crawl super fast to escape through any open door
You freak when people walk out the door& close the screen& don't take you with them
You took over a 3 hour nap.once.this has never happened before...or since
You eat everything. I give you everything.You love cottage cheese, yogurt, applesauce, any baby food, peaches, pears, apples, cereal, puffs, rice, lasagna, avocado, bananas. Once we even gave you a bread stick! You went to town (and we had to keep you from choking.)
You hate sitting at church.you fight sleep.
You are IN LOVE with your dad. You stare at him non-stop.everything he does you follow.
You think it's great when Faye beats you up, tries to pick you up, etc....but within reason.

Honestly, you smile all the time. you move constantly. you play by yourself for hours. you are a joy&a pleasure to have around.
If you would've told me 4 months ago you would be the happiest, most roly poly, sweet, smiley, giggly baby...I would not have believed you! Poor Faye is in a bad place being 2 right now, so you are a HUGE element of the happiness of our home. I can't believe it!
My sister has a theory that I buy into. You came to earth with this happy wiggly, ready-to-go spirit& you were stuck in this tiny, boring body you couldn't control or move& you were mad. The more you move, the happier you become.
You are snuggly,fat, happy & so cute& happy! Happy 7 months, you fantastic little man, you!
Also, you wouldn't sit still, this is as good as I got.
