G is growing up right before our very eyes! He will be 7 months on Monday (also would have been my dad's 82nd birthday). By 6 months he had two teeth. We haven't seen any appear since, but the doctor says the top ones look like they may be coming in soon. He's crawling! He was pushing himself backwards for the longest time and now we have forward progress. I set him on the bedroom floor while I was getting ready and he crawled over to my husband's nightstand and opened the drawer. We better get to baby-proofing!
The other day I laid him in his crib while I was putting some things away in his room. I turned away for a minute and when I looked back he was sitting up all by himself! This was the first time I have seen him do that. He would sit if we sat him up, but he hadn't sat himself up before. So exciting!
We're still in just the beginning stages of solid foods. He got sick at the end of September (on the day I left for a business trip) and it lasted for a little more than two weeks. Because of this we fell a little behind with the cereal. He's a well fed little guy tho and loves his mama's milk! He's been getting up once a night recently. Hopefully once he starts getting more solids he will sleep a few hours longer.
It's just amazing to see how much he changes day by day. I wish my dad had been able to meet him. I know how proud he would have been. I took this picture of G with a picture of my dad. I miss him so much.
