Hellobee

Liam turned 7 months old a couple of weeks ago! The biggest change this month was that he started crawling just a couple of days before Halloween, which means we now have a mobile baby! He’s growing so fast!

Here are his stats:

No well baby check this month, so we don’t know his weight and length, but he is growing, that’s for sure!
Diaper size: size three disposable diapers, four unsnapped in the middle and one row unsnapped on the bottom in cloth
Clothing size: 6-9 months or 6-12 months

Nicknames: sweetie pie, handsome guy, my love, big boy, baby doll, muffin man

Loves: “dancing” to music, the morning, being outside (and eating dirt, grass, and sticks – don’t worry, Mommy doesn’t let him), drinking from a STRAW sippy cup, eating food – he has been eating tons more lately, crawling, saying mama when he is tired/hungry/upset, saying DA all the time, clicking his tongue, taking a bath in his big boy tub or with daddy, chasing after the dogs, playing with anything that isn’t a toy – boxes, shoes, cothes, laundry basket, etc.

Hates: sleeping in – he’s been waking up around 4:30am every day lately to nurse and snuggle in our bed, getting cleaned up after eating, being hungry, napping anywhere but in his crib, in the car, next to mommy in bed, or in Grammy’s arms, the hour right before bedtime – it’s a struggle to keep him happy and awake after 5pm!
