Calvin is 7 months!


Update:
  • Officially sitting... and only tipping over when he wants to!
  • Lifts his belly, rocks on his hands and knees and occasionally seal-dives forward, and inches and scoots a bit, but mostly prefers to roll everywhere and pivot around to get what he wants
  • Straightens one leg when on all fours. Dad calls it "the stanky leg."
  • Getting into things, like dumping over the toy basket, grabbing cords, etc. 
  • Eating like a champ. We usually can't feed him fast enough and he pants like a crazy man until we give him more. Starting to eat more real foods like tiny bites of bread, pureed meats and mixed flavors
  • Growls all the time, but is starting to make a lot of new cute noises mixed in (like ya, and da-da)
  • Celebrated his first Thanksgiving. Loved his turkey and potatoes + playing with his cousins. 
  • Sleeping a lot better than last month, from about 7:30-7:30 straight through, with a 40min-1hr morning nap and 1.5-2 hour afternoon nap
  • Wearing size 3 diapers & 9-month clothes are getting a little tight (close to 12-month but not quite)
  • Experienced his first snow! He didn't react much and was not a fan of the cold
  • Weight: About 19 pounds 

Likes:
  • Exploring more than being held
  • Pears, prunes, peaches
  • Sitting on Dad's shoulders
  • When Dad smells his stinky diapers & makes a "PU" face
  • Dr Seuss's ABC book (with mom's crazy voice + dad's silly faces)
  • Brushing his teeth
  • Mirrors
  • Inspecting our fingertips

Dislikes:
  • Green beans
  • Avacado
  • Getting dressed while laying down
  • When toys are out of his reach
  • Sundays
