7 Months!!

Happy 7 months to Jake for growing big and strong and to Mommy and Daddy for not messing up too much! :-)

Today Jake slept until 7:00, which I hope he keeps up. He had his bottle and did not want anything to do with the swing. I think we may be putting the swing away! His feet hang off the edge and he doesn't really use it or enjoy it now that he's not taking his nap in there. So, I let him play a bit on the floor before I brought him to the Pack n' play to take his morning nap. Sure enough, it worked, and he passed right out for an hour and a half! This gave me lots of time to tidy up the place a bit. After he woke up, he ate some pears and we were off for our walk.

Daddy came home for lunch and helped me try to get a picture of Jake at 7 months. It's much harder taking the pictures now that he grabs everything and wants to put everything in his mouth. We didn't get any good ones, but at least we have them.

He no longer fits in any of his Old Navy shorts 6-12 months. They're actually tight around the belly area which is surprising. Hoping I can make it out to the store to get him a few pairs of 12-18 month ones. I'm running low on onesies now that he only fits in 12 month! Bye bye carter's 9 month onesies! Hopefully, we'll try to do some measurements tomorrow to check his length and weight.

Addy and Jake were playing together again today. He absolutely gets a kick out of her. Videos below....hopefully better light.

We went out to Fridays tonight for dinner. Jake was quite the character as he grunted and "ehhh" ed the entire time. He grunted so much that it made him poop! Figures! I went to change him and a lady in the restroom was convinced that he was at least 9 months old. When I told her 7 today, her mouth dropped. Jake flirted with her and gave big smiles to her two little kids. We had to leave dinner quickly when Jake started grunting on top of his lungs, so loud that it was causing him to cough. I guess he was trying to have a scream off with the music. He was never crying or fussy, just very vocal. I didn't want to be "those" people in a restaurant!

I gave Jake a bath when we got home. Lots of splashing and playing! Kathleen's flight got delayed so I'll be picking her up tonight around 10:00. Looking forward to our pool party tomorrow with some friends!!
