7 months!!

I can't believe my baby boy is 7 months old today!!  I love you, Aaden!





Can you guess what he's doing in this last picture?? ;)

  • Aaden loves to play peek-a-boo now.  He and Pappy play all the time with burp rags. 
  • He gets more independent everyday.  I can't believe how fast it's going!
  • He is very ticklish on the back of his neck and laughs the biggest belly laugh when Aaron kisses it.
  • He is starting to babble more and more.  He spits out his paci so he can "talk".  He's also started this funny growling thing.
  • I can tell he's starting to understand the concept of object permanence...if I'm holding him and I move to where something is out of sight for him, he'll bend/lean forward and turn his little head to try to see whatever it was he was looking at.  Usually it's the dogs or a bottle.  He also remembers that during bath time, he likes to play with his rubber ducky, he grabs for it as soon as we set him down in the bath.
  • He is starting to self-soothe a lot more when he's tired.  He started doing the groaning thing a long time ago when he was tired but now he does it more consistently.  As soon as he starts doing it, we know he's tired.  He also does it when we're rocking him to sleep, when he's in his crib trying to put himself to sleep, and on car rides when he's trying to go to sleep.  It's actually a nice cue since we know that he only does it when he's tired so if he's fussy and he starts doing that, we know why he's fussy. 
  • No teeth and no crawling but he loves to sit and play
  • He weighs about 17 pounds and wears 6 month clothes.  He is in size 3 diapers (Pampers)
