Seven Months

Sorry we missed doing the six-month photos, but hopefully the seven-month photo session will make up for it.
So at less than seven months, Isaac has mastered crawling, can sit up on his own, and is able to climb on things to stand up. He is beginning to communicate more, which is a relief. I don’t know if it’s babbling exactly, but he grunts and says “ah” back and forth with us like we’re having a conversation.
Isaac is now eating several different fruits and vegetables. Some new ones are: zucchini, brocolli, corn, avocado, apricot, quinoa, raisin, and pear.
Some other developments: He has learned how to scream when he is upset. This usually happens in his crib when he’s tired but is fighting it with all his might. He also would do raspberries after we initiate it, which is exciting because I feel like this is our first real interaction/game with one another.
He is sleeping exclusively in his crib now (no more swing). He wakes up only once a night and it’s usually around 4AM, after having slept for 6-7 hours. All things considered, that’s pretty good.
So much of his personality is coming out these days. He loves to laugh and play. He is a very, very curious baby. When there is something he does not recognize, he wants to go to it, touch it, climb on it, and then put it in his mouth. He’s also got a bad attitude sometimes when he’s upset and unhappy. He will scream, squirm, and try to roll over during diaper changes. He also yells when we restrict him from going somewhere or touching something. And when we remove him from an area, he immediately crawls back to it over and over, no matter how many times we grab him and say “no, no, no!”
In a nutshell, he is his father’s son. 🙂
