What's New?

Josiah will be 7 months old on Saturday.  Wow.  7 months really sounds so much older than 6!  It practically feels like we're just counting down to his first birthday now and that's just crazy!   Well, our big boy has been doing all kinds of new stuff lately, like:

• crawling backwards
• sucking on pacifiers
• wearing 12 & 18 months clothes
• falling asleep on his own
• getting his toes into his mouth (until now, his belly has been in the way!)
• playing in the pack-n-play
• liking some veggies - carrots & sweet potatoes (finally!)
• playing tug-of-war with our dog, Shelby
• wanting to share his toys with Shelby
• pulling up from sitting onto his knees
• sitting and eating in a highchair at restaurants
• sitting up all the time
• reading books
• loving stuffed animals
• taking baths in the real bathtub
• splashing the water in the bath
• growling back when growled at
• talking when I tell him to "say...(insert whatever)"

It's been a lot of fun, and I know it's just about to get crazier when he figures out how to crawl forward!
