7 Months!

Our Will turned 7 months old today! He has started doing all kinds of big boy things too. His bottom two teeth are working their way in. It's going to be so cute, but I'm a little worried that he's going to be a biter... and I'm still breastfeeding... yikes! He is sitting up all by himself now and is still working on getting up onto his knees. He really likes standing up and holding onto my hands to "walk" around. He loves to bounce on his knees and still screams at the top of his lungs when he's really excited.

His meals consist of avacado (his favorite), sweet potato, acorn squash, pears, bananas, apples, green beans, oatmeal, and brown rice cereal. I'm not sure yet what we're going to try next, but I have no doubt he'll eat it right up. He is so impatient when I'm getting his food ready and can hardly stand waiting for the next bite. He makes the mmm, mmm, mmm noise the whole time!

Best of all- the last two nights Will slept until 5:30 and 6:00 before waking up!!!!! We're praying tonight will be the same or better. I've been doing better about not letting him sleep with me. I can't help it, sometimes he just looks so precious I can't stand it and need to cuddle him.

We just love him more than we could have imagined!


Hey, there's that paper...
..I'm going to eat it..
..hi mom...
...oh, Dex, maybe I'll eat you too...
... hey, get off me...
..oh, a kiss...

...eww, that was sick.

Sooo cute! I was worried about Little L getting teeth too because I was still breastfeeding, luckily he didn't do any major biting. He almost did once but another mommy suggested that once he tries just to unlatch him and sit him away from the breast for about a minute so that he would understand that if he bites he wont get to nurse. It worked! :-) Thanks for joining BFG, I'll be following!
