7 Months Old

Yes I am a little late in posting but man have we been busy. It seems like Ty is doing something new everyday. He sits up very well, with still an occasional fall. He plays with BIG toys and little toys and switches them back and forth in his hands. He has 2 teeth now, both his lower middle. We have slept through the night more now that I have started letting him cry it out. Boy does that break my heart, but he learned in about 3 -4 days to go back to sleep (he likes to sleep in our bed). He LOVES to spit! He will make a motorboat sound with his mouth and spits goes everywhere. He is saying more "words" and sounds everyday. Some of them are DADADADADA (i do not associate this with daddy because Mommy is going to be is first word) babababba, and lots of coos and ahhhhhs. He is very attentive. He likes to play alone and with someone else. He responds well to his name Ty and to Moosie, Grandmas nickname for him that got from the doctor after he called him a Moose. He still likes to have his diaper changed because I always sing him a song, it goes like this: Stinkerooooooo....stinkerpoooo woo woo, Momma's stinkeroooo stinkerpoo! He thinks it is funny. We just went and got him a pair of stride rite shoes. Ty does not like tummy time too much and looooves to stand up so we are going to practice walking. For 7 months he is dang good. He puts one foot in front of the other and holds out his arms. I know it is early to start that, but hey he likes it. I really believe he will walk before he crawls.

I still enjoy rocking him to sleep every night. I know some people think that is bad and he should lay down on his own, but I love that quiet time together.
