He sits up on his own! (Don't worry, he was being supervised.)
He uses the pincer to pick up finger foods! Pincer is a development milestone using the thumb and forefinger to pick up small objects (like food). Usually babies that are between 9 and 12 months reach this milestone. Crazy genius 7 month baby. I figure he's motivated by food, like his Mama. Here he's eating plums. He loves plums.
He DANCES! He rocks back and forth with a smile on his face when music begins. Even when Papa does the beat box, he does the rockabilly to the beat. I wish I could post my video but alas, it's too long to download and too cute to cut. So, you'll have to see this in person.

He breaks free from his swaddle every time now. I still swaddle him because it's a way to ensure his warmth now that it's getting colder. But we might have to give it up altogether if I start to find the blanket over his face. He loves to put the blanket over his face.
He loves Cassie Care at the new location. They have play time outside almost every day. They get out in the stroller about town with Cassie. And they get to eat leaves.
I can't wait for the next month to see what else he'll try. We hope to report that the newest trick is to sleep through the night - he's almost there but might need a little training. Wish us luck.
Sweet stroller! Where did that come from?
ReplyDeleteWhen I still had Gigi, her mom got it for free from a friend. Becky S. sewed some new straps, then it was good as new. Don't know how often it will get used though now that the kids all way around 20+ lbs (the stroller alone has to weigh at least 20 lbs too). Walking 10 blocks took 30 minutes and my arms and shoulders are sore today from pushing up hill. But they enjoyed it, so I'm sure we'll try it again when I only have 3 kiddos.
