7!

Another month come and gone - he's going to be 1 before I know it!  It kills me!  This month has been super fun filled with play dates, trips to Boise and enjoying the sunshine!  His little personality is the best and he continues to show more and more of it every day.  He's such a little dare devil and likes to play rough.  He also is starting to show more and more independence, which at this stage is a little difficult!  He doesn't want to be held and if you try he'll squirm all around, but he's not mobile yet - it's a conundrum for us all!  His daddy still makes him giggle more than anyone else, but without question he is a mama's boy!  

Accomplishments/Facts:

He is finally a sitter!  Still of course bobbles from time to time, but he's got it down!

Has the best smile and a super awesome laugh!!

Able to get wherever he wants to go by rolling and pivoting

Squirms constantly!  Always slinking his way off my lap

Does his best tooting while nursing (lucky mom!)

Had his first haircut - okay, not really a cut, we just trimmed down his super crazy long sideburns

Started kicking his legs when throwing a fit (we're in for it!)

Wets through his diaper at night about once a week

Right before he starts nursing he makes this little sound/laugh as if he's won some great reward

Likes:

Kisses on the cheek - this always calms him down

Pinching!  His favorite is to pinch my arm while nursing.  Ouch!

Sucking on wet wipes - I used to use one as protection when changing him, but now he's constantly trying to grab them and stick them in his mouth.  Yuck!

Constantly stretching and putting both arms back behind his head

Totally fascinated by the blow dryer

Sucking on cloth and the straps to his car seat/stroller

His exersaucer - best. purchase. ever.

Hitting things and making noise

When mom shakes her hair all around

The dogs - he is obsessed and for the most part they are very patient with him

Tickles!

Dislikes:

Having covers on his feet - he's constantly kicking them off

Sleeping on his own (still)  I know, this is my fault, not his.  That being said, he likes to wake me up by reaching up and touching my lips, it's pretty sweet

Being strapped in to anything - he'll puff up his chest to try and keep us from tightening him in

Baby food - we had a small success the other night, here's hoping the tides are turning on this one!

We love our little love bug!
