Judah at 7 months



















How we love this little monkey. He is at such a sweet stage - still a snuggly, squishy baby but becoming his own person a bit more each day. This month he was mellow & happy almost all of the time, although in just the past few days he's started to want me in his sight most of the time. His two bottom teeth are all the way in & so cute! He's recently gone down to two naps most days & has discovered a new love for his wubbanub puppy paci. He doesn't really suck on it much but loves to chew & hold it while smiling really big like it's a long lost friend. His sisters are still his most favorite thing - they can make him belly laugh like nothing else. He's sitting up great & rolling everywhere, hopefully I'll have another month or two before I have to babyproof everything!


Details for the baby book...



eating: nursing every 3 to 4 hours during the day, solid breakfast of yogurt & fruit, dinner of fruit & veggies. Not a fan of cereal or oatmeal, still gagging a lot if he gets a chunk of something in his mouth. Likes to gnaw on raw, cold veggies.


sleeping: goes down easily almost all the time, but likes to keep me guessing on his schedule. Some days he wakes at 4 or 5am & goes back to sleep until as late as 8:30. Other days he sleeps until 6:30am & wants to be awake for the day. Naps can be anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 1/2 hours - I never know! Takes naps in his crib and sleeps at night in the pack n play down in our bathroom so he's still close for nursing - trying out his bed overnight this week.



likes: laughing at the girls, watching Bitsie, car rides (he's actually great - how amazing!), being outside in his saucer, swimming in his floatie, bath time in his blow up tub, rocking & being sung to in his room before naps while he snuggles with his blanket & paci - so glad that I've gotten him to enjoy this!


dislikes: mom walking away, having his face washed after eating
