Seven Months Old

This has been such a delightful time in Benjamin's development. He is so happy, curious, and full of giggles and squeals. The past few weeks were a great time for him to meet so many of his relatives...by the way, a few more pictures from the trip will be posted soon.
Chewing on a piece of his new toy...he liked one of the toys at Nana's house so much that we went out and bought something similar. Just not enough room in the car for everything we wanted to bring back!

I'm not sure if he just loves to dance, or if he's laughing at my singing.

As soon as he saw the red fox at Nana's house, he reached out and grabbed it. It made the cut & came back with us.

This particular smile is so elusive when the camera comes out...got lucky today.

Here are some of the changes we've seen in the past month:
- He cut two teeth...at the same time.
- He has a little more hair, enough to use a brush on.
- He is "talking" even more & using lots more syllables (all random, of course).
- He is trying to crawl, but can't quite get on his hands & knees.
- He rolls and rolls all over the place.
- He is trying to sit up on his own, and he doesn't fall over so easily when sitting up.
- He is very interactive with people, even smiling at strangers when they smile at him.
- He sleeps in all kinds of positions.
- He loves looking out the car window.
- He is eating solid foods; he may not like squash, but sweet potatoes were a hit!
