Jack is 7 months :)

Happy 7th Month Birthday Jack!!

 
Over 18 pounds, 2 ounces...our guy is getting more rolls, and heavier to carry! Jack continues to be SOCIAL! If we are out and about...Jack is happy. 

Jack is eating more and more solids...he's LOVES avocado and banana. He's eating sweet potato & banana with cinnamon, oatmeal with apple and cinnamon, green beans with butternut squash, green beans, & broccoli. He's had little bits of chicken! LOVES ALL OF IT. It's been fun to puree my own food in the baby food maker. He continues to breastfeed. I am determined to go a year...because it's SO fun to pump at work :)

Oh and crawling!! Jack loves to crawl. He gets from point A to point B...quickly. Right now it is more of an army crawl...but there are a few mixed in coordinated crawling movements. Which means one thing: there's no turning back. Jack is a mover! Ready to explore!

He's getting better at entertaining himself. If surrounded by his toys, he can spend 1/2 hour playing by himself. He loves toys that have cause & effect. He hits the keys and they light up and play music. Oh and he's discovered how fun it is to JUMP. Between his jumper in the doorway and his stand alone jumper, he loves JUMPING. It's hilarious to watch how fast he gets going. And...how tall he's grown. When we first got him the stand alone jumper in April, he couldn't touch the ground. Now we've raised the height adjustor, and he can definitely stand! Boy oh boy!
