7 Months!

Connor, you are SEVEN months old! I say this every month but seriously where has the time gone?? I can't believe you are over halfway through your first year! This month you have just brought pure joy to our lives. Your little personality gets bigger each day and you are such a social little guy. You always get comments from strangers on how smily you are and what big dimples you have! You also love to cuddle and would be perfectly content being held in our arms all day. You also love to "talk" and make noises at anyone who tries to talk to you! You are such a miracle Connor and we love you so much!

You are obviously very excited to be over half a year old now!

And because I couldn't pick just one:

Here is what you are up to at seven months!

You weigh around 17 pounds. (we go Friday for a weight check so I will know for sure then!)

You wear mostly six month clothes but are fitting into some nine month things too.

You are such a chill, easygoing little guy. When I was pregnant and found out you were a boy, I was worried that you would be as active as your older brother! I love that about him but didn't know if I could handle two like that! On the contrary you are completely the opposite! Not in a hurry to do anything, much more interested in people than other things around you and so calm! I'm so thankful for that!

You are a great little sleeper. You go to bed at 7:30....ON THE DOT! and sleep until around 6:30 or 7. You are so silly because without me even trying you started putting yourself to sleep at 7:30. Now I joke that at 7:30 you turn into a pumpkin! We were at dinner with your Nana and Grandad a few weeks ago and when the clock struck 7:30, you cuddled up with your lovey and rolled to your side in your carseat and fell asleep! In the middle of a loud restaurant!

You adore Mason. Each month you two have started to interact more and more and you are developing such a close bond with each other. He will lay on the floor and talk baby talk to you and you just look up at him with a huge grin. It melts Mommy's heart!

You are still not mobile but are showing a little interest in trying to army crawl. I wouldn't be surprised if you start that sometime this month!

You have one tooth and another one coming in right behind it!

You always have been and still are SO vocal! You coo, babble, scream, squeal you name it, you are constantly doing it! You are trying to make some actual words too! I've heard baba couple of times and it really sounds like you are trying to say "mama" when you cry!

Connor Benjamin- we love you so much! It makes me sad that you are closer and closer to leaving your baby days behind but I know that so much fun is ahead of us!
