I can't believe our baby boy is 7 months old today...I'm still in shock over the 6 month mark :-( 7 months in my mind sounds like such a big boy, not the tiny little guy that still needs me all the time. Charlie is definitely getting bigger: cammando crawling/scooting, proping up like he might crawl then belly diving toward the toy he wants, leaning/reaching for Jose and I when he wants us, or scooting to us, definitely has stranger anxiety (though he gets over it if you let him warm up), the "elvis" (hip thrusts while laying on his back), fake coughing/squealing/"talking" to get the attention that he needs. Developmentally it's an exciting time and it can be difficult to keep track of all the milestones. I get emails from multiple sources about baby development (including our hospital which is so helpful so I can read up in short format) and this is a great chart for 7-12 month development...I especially like that it breaks it down into 3 columns: mastered skills, emerging skills and advanced skills because every baby truly is different.
We're recovering from all the travel, yep, it's caught up with us...so no fancy pics for the blog entry today but here are a few from this afternoon. I'll put up a cute 7 month pic in the next few days.
