The Norwoods : 7 months!

William Aston,

Mommy loves you so much an can hardly believe that you're 7 months old today. I thought all the other months flew by, but this past one was definitely the quickest one to go by.

On December 6th at the doctor you weighed 17.3 lbs. As for your current height...SHORT. :) You are wearing size 3 diapers, mostly 3-6 month tees and onesies. Your Christmas attire though is 6-9 or 6-12. I bought early and bought too big. You still wear 0-3 month jeans and shorts, but I do put you in the 3-6 month bottoms. You are eating solids twice a day (well your supposed to be...you have chosen to not eat in the past week) and you drink 4oz every 2-4 hours. Your top two teeth are currently trying to make an appearance...thank goodness for teething tablets! We finally got to go to your new doctor last week and are officially done with your old one as of today! YAY! and YAY!

You are growing and changing so fast little man. We have officially retired your first pair of shoes today. *tear* BUT, don't you worry...Mommy replaced them with a bigger size. Your feet are too chubby to fit in the shoes with socks on and you need socks now with the cooler weather. Replacing your first pair of shoes with a bigger pair was worse than packing away all your newborn clothes.

This past month you've:
*learned to sit really well.
*learned to get up on all fours.
*met Santa 3 times!
*took your first bath in your ducky tub and you LOVED it!
*celebrated your first Thanksgiving.
*started waving back (sometimes).
*crying when Mommy leaves you at daycare (so sad).
*started drinking water out of a sippy cup.
*started banging on things with other objects to be really loud.
*started holding your own bottle at daycare.
*began refusing to sleep in your crib.
*become more interactive with your toys vs. just chewing on them.
*got your first Christmas present from Mommy and Daddy a month early. =)
