Siete

My handsome little man is 7 months now.  Still sweet and chill as ever.

He is loved by so many people

What he is doing at 7 months.

• Still screaming when he gets excited!
• Close to crawling
• Trying and succeeding with a new formula for his skin!  (It's rather expensive which isn't the greatest.)
• Loves his binky
• Loves his Momma!!!
• Enjoys listening to music.  Especially the Piano Guys on You Tube.  (His favorite is Peponi.)
• Still has his own sleep schedule.
• Still seems to have a big cranium.

I thought I had got him on a good sleep schedule for 2 days!  Two whole days we had a 3 hour afternoon nap from this little man.  Not today though.

He's just growing up too fast.

Next Time We Will Use Our Cranium

We had been waiting since January for a warm windy day.  (This was the beginning of March a little slow on posting this.)  The day arrived and we headed out to fly the Noodle's kite he got for his birthday.

It only took about 3 minutes to put it together and we headed out the door.  It was blustery and it was all the Noodle could do to get to the field without blowing away.  (We had sustained winds at 20 mph.  I couldn't talk him into waiting.)

 We got it up quickly and watched with amazement as it glided back and forth through the atmosphere.

This photo is with my lens that can get close to things without being in their business.  The kite was far away.

If you can see the Noodle on one corner and the kite in the other.

Why the title for this post then?  It took me 20 minutes to reel the kite back in.  I was plum tuckered and had to take a break once we got it in the house.  We will not be venturing in 20mph winds anytime soon.

Sand Belly

 We have still been enjoying amazing weather.  We went to the high school track today and played for a couple hours.  The kids loved playing in the long jump sand with their friend.  It's about as close to beach sand as we can get around here.

Beauty Shop Guy

When I found out I was expecting a girl (with the Diva, no I am not expecting another one.) I knew that she would probably have a personality of Junie B. Jones.  A children's book star.  If you haven't read a Junie B. Jones book, I would highly recommend it. Anyway, she is quite the girl, and yes.  I have a similar little girl.

Lately I have been finding her locked in my bathroom.  What has she been doing in there... Well her own make up.  She loves makeup. Lots of days we find her coming out looking fabulous.  The other day when I went to get her she told me that I needed to look pretty.  

Here is the outcome.  Let me know what you think!

Gorgeous girls.

SIX

My little boy is six months old now.  Time is going faster than I would like to admit.  

He is such a joy.  He has been with babysitters a lot the last few weeks.  I am so thankful he doesn't seem to mind.  Today is the last day he has to go.  Woo Hoo!

 He still has a big melon.  We though he was going to level out, but seemed to gain in the brain.  His head is 17.5 inches.  Meaning he went up from 60% to 78%.  He is 26.75 inches long.  48%.  and he 16 lb. 11 oz.  That's in the 30%.  My growing boy.  

He is teething.  I think he's been teething for months now.  Maybe we'll get to see something this month. He likes to eat oatmeal, rice, and barley.  In that order of likeness.  I am trying to make my own baby food when it comes to fruits and veggies.  So we have done broccoli and pears.  He's not sure about those. 

He has a really high pitched scream.  He makes dogs look around for the source of the noise.  He loves to make himself the center of attention.  

He still sleeps in his car seat.  It has turned out to be a great blessing with him going to other's homes.  He sleeps everywhere.

I can't wait for the day to be over!  Then we get to have him home all day!
