7 Months

Grant my man, you are now 7 months old.  Weighing in at 17lbs. 15 oz.  Only 3 oz gained this month, which means you have really gotten active.

 

*Army crawling all over the place, and started crawling for real the day after you turned 7 months.

*Sitting up by yourself for about 30 sec.-1 min

* Loves Loves Loves sweet potatoes and squash

*Laugh all the time, and love to watch Jack and Cole play

* Still aren't sleeping like I would like you to, but you are oh so very sweet in the night when I see you.

* And you will put anything and everything in your mouth.  Your brothers aren't used to making sure their toys are off the ground.  We have had a few close calls.  Hopefully no screws though (unlike Cole) But paper is your favorite.  You will stop at nothing to get a piece of paper.  :)

Happy 6th birthday Jack!

Happy birthday to my handsome, incredibly smart, inquisitive, first born. You keep me on my toes all day long. I show you things one time and you are quick to pick up how to do it on your own. You love to create things in the kitchen and hopefully one of these days I will be able to let loose and not care about the mess :) You are shy to new situations, but once you feel safe or find a buddy you don't want to leave. It's been neat to really see you develop a few good friendships this year. We jumped into this homeschooling adventure this year. I hope that you know mommy is only doing this because I love you and what what's best for you. You are so bright but hate to to take the time to sit down and learn so we are learning together how you best learn. You are quite a perfectionist, and don't like when you can't read a word or get something wrong. You love your baby brother. You are a fantastic big brother to both Cole and Grant. You love one on one time with mom or dad and/or grandpa and grandpa. Obviously Legos are your toy of choice right now so we created a wonderful Lego party. Everyone was sick mon your birthday so it was a small party, but then we did a double party with Nathan a couple weeks later. Love you buddy!!!
