7 Months

Elijah is getting harder and harder to photograph these days, especially when he's on the sofa. 
 He nearly crawled off several times,
 so we moved to the floor and I gave him a toy.
 He's such a silly boy

 Once again he was trying to make a break for it.
 
I had to add this picture.  He was enjoying some peaches for a snack so I thought I'd take a few pictures.  When I looked back over them this picture kind of scared me.  I saw a glimpse of a "little boy" instead of just baby. 
 
At seven months he:
- is crawling where ever he can
- pulls himself up on the sofa, coffee table, or whatever is close by
- is learning how to get back down to his knees from the standing position
- is eating all kinds of veggies and fruit
- is eating puffs (and a cheerio once in a while)
- loves to "talk"
- says "dadadadada"
- scrunches up his nose
- is a Mama's boy
- is still not sleeping all night long (we seem to go in spurts)
- loves the dogs and will look for them if I ask him where they are
- is still very serious in public
- is afraid of strangers
- is toothless (the little tooth I had felt went back down)
- tries to grab all things electronic
- loves to look outside and play outside (we can't wait for it to warm up!!!)
- is learning what "no, no" means
- has had his Mama trim the hair around his ears twice.
