- Sleep -You are consistent. You're down no later than 8:00pm and you'll rise anywhere from 6:00 - 7:00.
- You are an official crawler.
- You love to pull up on stuff. You've moved around holding onto things, so it's only a matter of time before you figure the whole "cruising" thing out.
- You've been sitting up since last month. Now you try to stand from a sitting position. You've got the downward dog pose down pat.
- You talk all the time. You seem to be very happy when you are "talking".
- Your eyes are still blue!!!
- You wear size 6 month and some 9 month clothes.
- You wear size 3 diapers.
- You love bath time and like to splash.
- You are mesmerized by Andrew and love talking to him. He is definitely your favorite person besides me. ; )
- You reach for me if someone else is holding you.
- You're a mama's boy.
- You have your bottom teeth and the top 2 teeth are popping through.
- You've said Ma Ma and what sounds like hey and bye
- You've figured out how to blow bubbles and sputter/spit
- When you get a bottle you're drinking 6oz. We've started nursing more because you're quicker than the pump now.
- You'll eat anything I offer you now. Doesn't matter what it is. Lord knows I'm praying you'll be an eater like Zachary.
- You've traveled to DC now. You're quite the traveler in your first year.
- You love to be outside in the fresh air. You're going to be a hot weather liking kind of dude.
- You like to run with me. You don't know how happy this makes me, but it does. Maybe we'll run races together.
- You make me smile and give my heart a reason to be happy.
- You're growing way too fast.
- You've found your feet and think they are tasty.
- You chew on anything and everything from fingers, clothes, faces, furniture, etc.
- I caught you standing in your crib chewing on the railing. Hope the residual of Andrew and Zachary's chewing spots taste yummy. Blech.
- You're a tummy sleeper and have been since week 8.
- You love your gym mat and play, talk and play some more, but it doesn't contain you. You crawl right off and have successfully explored our downstairs.
- You hate long distance car rides. Aunt Karen, our next trip to you will be via plane.
- You like to listen to our Praise Baby CDs.
- Like your brothers, you sleep to the Ocean Waves and I think it calms you.
- I've had people tell me you look like me, but honestly, I don't know who you look like.
- I pray for your future wife. I pray she'll be the daughter I didn't have and love me like a mother, but more importantly she'll love you as much (actually more, but I'm not sure that's possible) as I do. I also have to pray that I'll be the best MIL ever because the thought of letting you go is more than I can bear to think about. Same goes for your older brothers. Thankfully I have many years to get over it.
Love,
Ma Ma

Is it sad that my 2 month old eats as much as your 7 month old (maybe more because she still eats 6-8 times a day)? Maybe that's why she was 90% in weight and 97% in height at her 2 month check up! Can someone say chunky?! Tell Will he needs to fatten up to marry her one day!
