7 months

Eli is now 7 months and getting so big.
  • He is sitting up which makes going to the grocery store a whole lot easier since I don't have to haul his car seat in anymore. Such joy.
  • He is starting to be more comfortable on his belly and tries really hard to grab at toys out of his reach. I still don't think he will be crawling anytime soon.
  • He screeches all day long. Perhaps I'm too quiet for him and he can't stand the quiet house?
  • He just started spitting while I try to feed him. I knew I shouldn't have laughed the first time he did it, but I couldn't help it, it was hysterical. And now he always wants me to laugh so he keeps doing it. What a mess.
  • He stayed overnight at his Aunt Lisa's for a couple separate nights this past month and did great. It was so nice for Eric and I to have a date night!
  • We tried to give him those gerber graduates puffs that dissolve in the mouth and he threw up. I guess he isn't quite ready for finger foods. Thats okay, I don't mind the rice cereal/veggie/fruit mixes.
  • He is into sticking out his tongue to one side. adorable.
  • He loves being in his stroller and seeing new things. I've learned if he gets crabby, to stick him in the stroller and go on a walk. Works like a charm.
  • And he experienced his first Halloween. I had so much fun dressing him up!


He is getting very long...


I let him play with Mickey for awhile. Look at that tongue sticking out. so funny.



Baby in a box...
Its good entertainment.
