Me and my 7 month old man

Noah turned 7 months old on November 2nd. My sister in law Kimberly took these pictures of us while we were at Ben's baby blessing in Glendora that day.
How in the world can my baby be 7 months old?!?!?

He LOVES to eat! Here are a few of his favorite foods...
Bananas, rice cereal, ALL vegetables...and really ALL fruits, I guess he likes everything I've given him so far.
He's "finally" meaning just yesterday, mastered sitting up on his own and his brothers are trying so hard to teach him to crawl. His eye lashes are super long but no teeth yet!
Everything would be "perfect" if he slept better :) I just can't let him cry and I KNOW...I'm making it harder on myself but I just can't do the whole sleep training thing...I try (really I do..) but I just can't do it... can someone move in for a week and help me please?

He absolutely loves his brothers and sister and they love him. It's so neat to see all the love that a baby brings into your home. He is a mamas boy and cries if I leave the room. We are attached at the hip. It feels great to be so loved :)

Noah loves his baby play saucer and is all hands grabbing at everything! Better have those nails trimmed otherwise he literally takes your flesh off because he pinches and scratches so hard!
We can't imagine life without him, I'm enjoying every minute of him.

Kristen, Noah is just adorable, I really can't believe how much older he looks everytime you post new pictures. Crazy.

I am a kindred spirit with you when it comes to the no "sleep training" thing. :-)
I figure there's pluses and minuses to both sleeping styles and I enjoy the pluses over the minuses. (I just love having them sleep with us--it also helps when the hubby doesn't mind) Everyone has to just choose which one is best for them.
My kids never had to sleep in only "their" crib, it made it easier for us whenever we were visiting family and friends.

those pictures are so great, what a handsome toddler he is, you look great too.

yes, time flies by, before you know it he'll be going to school, are you ready for that?

Those are soooo cute, he really is looking so much older, first thing I thought when I saw him yesterday, he is growing up fast!
You look fabolous by the way.

I can't believe how big he's getting. That time has gone so fast! He's so cute!!

He is so darn cute.
I think you are going to experience the same thing me and my other friends are dealing with. The youngest child, all of which are boys and they are all HUGE mama's boys. It gets harder as they get older! They get more attached at the hip. Have fun with it.

Somehow the days are long but the weeks, months, and years are short, and they grow so fast.

Such cute pictures. Sure is nice when they eat well. You would hope it would help them to sleep! I think it's harder to let a baby cry when you know it could wake up their siblings!

What a cutie he is and those pictures of you are gorgeous!! It is hard to believe he is seven months already! Where does the time go?! Brody is SUCH fun age right now and I am loving how active he is, how much he loves his sisters etc....but I am missing my tiny little baby!

He looks so big! And SO cute.
I wanted to say have fun at Disney, since your kids are older you can take advantage of the "fast pass". Make sure to get the details when you're there, if you don't already know, it will literally double the amount of rides in your day. Have a blast.
True, about the sleep training. I was like a drill Sargent with the schedule so he also has slept 12 hours at night. However, it is difficult when we go out of town, which we do often. But it is getting a little better as he gets older.

Tammy said...

Wow 7 months. Time has flown. He is getting to be so big and what a cutie!! Letting them cry is hard especially at night. I am jealous he is such a good eater...my kids need some serious pointers.
