Mister Boy: 7 Months

Welcome 7 months!  Mister Boy is truly becoming more and more delightful, hilarious and showing us even more personality every day.  Oh, and the trouble and mischief he is in!  Oh my!  This last month has been very productive and now Maverick is crawling full force!  I am completely in denial about it and can not believe it happened so fast.  He can also get into the sitting position from crawling like a pro, rolls every which way faster than lightening and is now pulling himself up on everything!  I told him to slow down, but this boy is determined to move!  So now he is obsessed with practicing standing all the time.  And I had to get a few baby gates, especially since we have a laundry room in the back where Toby keeps his bicycles (scary!).

Mav is babbling more too.  He does this whisper thing, where it's like he is talking to himself.  It is the cutest!  He's been eating solids for the last month and loving it.  He has tried all sorts of yummy stuff and recently had organic pinto beans.  I am mashing things up more and more instead of so many purees.  He is also a fan of yogurt.  We are still breast feeding several times a day and it is still the main way Mav goes to sleep at night.  We are still co-sleeping as well.  We did put our bed on the ground because I was all sorts of nerves as he started getting more mobile.  Maverick is quickly becoming such a fun and happy baby!  He loves to laugh and smile and I love how bright his eyes get when I kiss him or the excited panting noises he makes when dada comes home from work!

Here are a few of his favorite things: Miya dog's paws and tail, watching birds at the park, crawling in the grass and picking up leaves, banana, naked time, Miya's dog bowl, walks, bath time, playtime with dada, power cords (uh-oh!), peek-a-boo and bicycle rides.

We continue to fall in love with this bean more and more each minute!  And, yeah I am super exhausted from chasing around a very mobile babe!  But, each month does get better and better!  Cheers to 7 month olds!
