7 Months

On Monday our baby was 7 months old! It is so fun watching him develop his little personality which is pretty chill. He loves just exploring the living room right now. He isn't crawling on his hands and knees yet but is getting where he wants to go. Sometimes he gets frustrated because he wants to go forwards but can only go back:) He can stand up on his own for a while if he is holding onto something and can pull himself up if he is halfway there:) Oh and he loves cords, any kind of cord. He will just sit and play with it forever! Yesterday Andrew was pushing the truck to him and Ollie would push it back to Andrew, so cute. For some reason he is fascinated with this light fixture in our doorway? Every time he sees it he just smiles and stares. I was wanting to get a new light because it is a little outdated but maybe we'll just have to keep it for a while:) He is enjoying his baby food which he gets in the morning and evening. He really likes his meat and veggie dinner and is nursing every 4 hours during the day. I have made some baby food for him (carrots and green beans) and my mom made him some squash. It is so easy and I want to make more! After a couple of nights of having him put himself back to sleep, he has been sleeping 8+ hours at night! He loves bath time, especially when I put water on his head to wash his hair? By the time the bath is over there is hardly any water left in his little tub. He does not like his diapers or clothes changed much. He does LOVE reading books before naps, which he usually takes 3 a day. He is starting to fit into some of his 12-18 month clothes and is going to need a new car seat soon! Such a little man....

We love you Ollie, just how God made you... we are blessed!
