SiMpLe LiFe...: Owen's 7th month.

Thursday, October 4, 2012

I'm obviously bit behind, but now that Owen is 8 months old (plus a few weeks), so we should catch up on the 7th month of his little life.

You are very "chatty". You babble constantly, especially when we're riding in the car or you're hanging out in your high chair or jumperoo.
You started trying harder to get up on all fours to crawl. You just can't move as fast as you want, so you still mostly "scoot". You're also learning that you can use things around you to pull up....oh dear!
You're feeding yourself a lot more 'finger foods'. Although you didn't like mashed up peas & green beans, you love to feed peas & little pieces of beans to yourself now. You also feed yourself cubes of peaches, banana, avocado, sweet potato, and noodles.
You still have just 2 teeth.
You started "school" on August 27th & seem to love it. You haven't cried since the first day we dropped you off. You get excited when we walk in the building & when you see that we're going to your classroom.
You love to read. Your absolute favorite book is "Where is Baby's Belly Button". As soon as you see us get off of the shelf, you shriek & start laughing. You love to try to help us lift the flaps too!
Pop & Marion dropped by for a visit on their way home from Louisville. They brought you your 1st "noise" book, "Trick or Treat with Elmo". You love to try to push the buttons as we read it.
You're sleeping less & less, both during the day & at night...bummer. You're just too busy for sleep!
