7 Months

This little Prince is 7 months old!!! It seems impossible to believe. I've told the last 3 people that have asked how old he is that he is 6 months, before realizing that he isn't anymore. Time is going so fast, and I haven't really processed that he is actually 7 months old now! It just doesn't seem right. He still loves to read! We go to the library once a week now to get new books for him. He also really likes hearing us make animals sounds (not sure if it is because he is genuinely interested in them, or if it's because he likes hearing us make fools of ourselves). Whenever we are on a walk or in the car and he starts to complain, I just start making animals noises: "The cow says moooooo! The cat says meow, meow!" etc. or singing Old Macdonald had a farm, and he quiets right down and listens intently. He can sit up on his own very well, although he really doesn't like to do it very much. He still prefers to feel someone sitting right behind him. Little stinker. And over the past few weeks he has discovered that if he drops a toy, it is usually picked up for him. So he drops toys left and right! He drops things from the carseat, his high chair, even the stroller. He must think it's hilarious to see us chasing after the toys as quickly as we can before they roll onto the street, but at least Jon and I get a good workout! That's our little smarty pants!
