Keller 7 MONTHS

Weight: 20 lbs

• You are now sitting up.  You love sitting up like a big boy and seeing what is going on around you.
• You can scoot in your baby walker.
• You have tried peas and peaches.  Not a fan of peas.
• You are doing so much better in the car, however, you still have a limit.
• You love spitting your baby food out and laugh when it goes everywhere.
• You have the cutest chunky baby legs.  Once we started the baby food, they really seemed to plump up.
• Mama is surprised you still have the birthmark above your right eye.  Doctor said it would go away by 6 months.  I think it is cute so I wouldn't mind if it never goes away.
• You had a great 6 month check-up.  Genetics are starting to take a role and you are getting longer and leaner (besides those chunky legs). Doctor is not worried about the eczema and says you will probably out grow it.  Doctor also gave us the green light to feed you more baby foods.
• You are now giving us some really good belly laughs.  Especially, in our bed right before bedtime.
• The later it is during the day, the more likely you are to get over stimulated.
• Baby tears are so sad.
• We sing to you all the time.  Seriously, your instantly stop crying when we sing to you.  It is amazing.
• You right foot moves nonstop during your feedings.
• You love pears and carrots.  They are by far your favs.
• You favorite song is, "This Little Light of Mine."
• Your favorite toy is your light up ball.
• Lots of baby babble these days.  "Dadadadadadadada" over and over again.
• Still surviving teething... thanks to mama's BFF, Sophie.
• You were baptized Easter morning.  It was a very special day.  Your whole family was there to support you and love on you.  After Easter service, we had a celebration at Grandmother's house.  
• Your top fangs are coming in before the top middle teeth.  They are really bothering you.
• When you want something like a toy, you will wave to it.  I know you are not really waving but it looks like you are.
• You had your first plane ride ever.  We got you some wings to prove it.  You didn't sleep either way but you didn't get upset either.  I was very proud of you.  Even the stewardess commented on how well behaved you were.
• We went to Columbus to visit your BFF Abbott Hall.  We went to the zoo, ate good food, and played with Abbott's cool toys.  You love Aunt Ashley's home cooked baby food.  We went to the park and you had your first experience in the swing.
• Your top fangs came in on 4/16/13.  Two teeth at once is just not fair!
• You had your first fever of 101.2 on 4/16/13.
• You got your first virus on 4/20/13 and it lasted a couple of days.  The runny nose lasted almost two weeks though.  
• You are poping out teeth like crazy these days!  You got your 5th tooth on 4/20.  Between the virus, fever, and teething I had one pitiful baby:(
• You love watching your shadows while jumping in your Johnny Jump Up.
