7 Months

Happy 7 Months Little Man!

Our little guy is growing up too fast! He's the sweetest boy ever and he makes us all so happy. He weighs a little over 19 pounds and fits in 9 months and 6-12 months clothes. He's in the medium setting in his cloth diapers.

 Jace is still taking 6 ounces of formula (with added rice cereal) about every 3 hours. I just started working on decreasing the rice cereal in his bottles to see if we can eventually not have to add any. His spitting up has drastically decreased. He very rarely does it anymore and it is so nice! He eats stage 2 baby foods and we let him try some of our food also. He has a jar for breakfast and dinner, we haven't started lunch yet but we will soon. He has also started drinking apple juice (half juice/half water) and he loves it!

He has 2 teeth on the bottom and he loves to bite and hold onto the spoon when he is eating. He thinks it's funny! He sleeps all night still, except for the past couple of nights he's woken up during the night. I think it's because of him teething.

Jace is such a happy baby and is always smiling and laughing. He loves to play and he will sit by himself and play for a little while. He LOVES his big sister! No matter how upset he is, she can always put a smile on his face. He is trying so hard to crawl, he'll get up on all fours and rock. He is all over the place, he rolls everywhere and army crawls! He loves to talk and he says several letter sounds. He can say Mama and Dada, but I don't think he relates that to us. He is so loving. He loves to snuggle and give hugs and kisses. I'll tell him to give me sugars and he leans into me with his mouth open. Sometimes we don't even have to ask and he'll lean in for kisses! I love it!
Diaper changes nowadays are nearly impossible. As soon as I lay him on the changing table, he flips over. He's so fast! I have to try to hold him down to change him, he doesn't want to lay down and be still. It's so much harder to take his pictures too!
