7 months old

Max is 7 months old!  I can hardly believe we are well past the half-way point in his life!  It is going by so quickly.  I am trying so hard to enjoy every moment and take it all in, but Max's first year is flying by me.

At 7 months, you:

• wear size 6mo clothes still, size 3 shoes
• are CRAWLING!  you are all over the house now!
• weigh 18lb 4oz
• have had 3 ear infections.  poor baby!
• love to watch your brothers!  you can be so fussy, but they come in the room and you cheer up
• are starting to hate to go to bed.  you fuss a few minutes and then put yourself to sleep nicely!
• love your daddy!  you smile so big at him when he comes home after work

• have a sweet smile and a sweeter personality.
• love your mommy too!  i like to think it goes beyond feedings, but i do know the way to a boy's heart - food!!!

Your first time down the slide.  I love that in the first picture, big brother Miles is right there watching over you along with Daddy (and you are watching him).  Then he decides to follow you down the slide (you can barely see him at the top in the third picture).

You did have your third ear infection on the day you turned 7 months.  We are trying a new antibiotic and have a follow-up appointment in a couple of weeks to make sure they are clear this time.
