7 Months Old

Zander is 7 months old! Thought I would share some pictures from this past month.

Here he is modeling a swim diaper at Gigi & Bum Bum's house on Father's Day. This picture cracks me up on so many levels! His "speedo", dimpled thighs, rolls around his ankles..I could go on and on...(my mom was holding his hand but you can barely see her, baby was safe)

Smiling with Mama for a quick pic!

He's got 2 teeth now! You can sort of see here in this 2 week old picture.

Someone sharing their tea with him. He loves tea!

Collage of him feeding himself Gerber Puffs for the first time. Try clicking to make bigger!

He now weighs 19 lbs. He has started to crawl on all fours but is way faster at the army crawl. He climbs everything. We have to barricade him into the living room with pillows and bean bags. But he crawls over those too!

I've been making him homemade baby food. His favorite is pureed pasta with carrots and monterey jack cheese. We give him fruit (usually store bought) with cereal in the morning then he nurses every few hours until dinner. At dinner he gets 3 cubes of frozen baby food with cereal. Then he wants to nurse most of the night until he passes out. I think he's too busy exploring during the day and then realizes his tummy is hungry at bedtime. That or he's having a growth spurt.

Matt got him to say Da Da a few days ago. His voice is so precious! Can't wait for him to say those magical words.."Ma Ma" to me!
