Seven Months = Heaven on Earth

Dear Oliver,

Wow. You are 7 whole months. What an amazing adventure you have been. From watching you sleep all day during those early months, to watching you play and play all day (and nap when you're tired) has been so rewarding. You are such an easy baby. You have learned many new things.

1. How to jump in the jumparoo for over an hour in the church nursery!
*I don't have pictures of this, but you can ask Mrs. Rebecca Shrader for proof. ;)



2. How to play with your cousins!




3. How to pull up (on Mama and Daddy)!


As you can see, I was a little excited.
;) I realize now that this may not technically be called, "Pulling up" since you are using our arms...but still...it is a big accomplishment and I was SO proud of you! :)

4. How to scoot on your back!



5. How to sit in a high chair!



6. How to take a big boy bath in the big ducky!

7. How to hold your spoon while eating (well, somewhat...you tend to stick the spoon in your mouth a little too far and sometimes instead of putting the spoon in your mouth you grab it with your other hand which gets really messsy...)
*I don't have pictures / video of this...yet...however, tonight would have been a perfect time because for the first time ever, you cried because you wanted more yogurt and wanted to feed yourself, (I had fed you squash and thought you were done, turns out you weren't).

Here are his 7 month pics: Oh, Oliver weighs about 15 lbs now!
