7 Months!!!

Wyatt is 7 months old!!! Can't believe how fast the time is flying by, soon I will be planning his 1 year birthday. He is such a sweet and happy little boy! Each month he changes so much in his personality. It is almost like he wakes up a completely different baby but still him. He still loves his jumperoo and we are purchasing him a walker so hopefully he will enjoy that as well. He loves to roll all over the place, it is nice to see your little boy rolling around when he wouldn't lay on his stomach at all for the longest time. Now, he loves to be on his stomach and either watching TV or just hanging out. He even tries to drink his bottle while on his stomach but we don't let that happen. He loves to chew! He will chew on anything that is in front of him, even your nose! We haven't seen any teeth yet but his gums definitely look like there is something going on. Hopefully there will be a tooth or two breaking through soon. He is sitting up very well, he doesn't fall over unless he gets startled or playing with Tyson. We don't have a crawler yet, which I have been told is a good thing but I want to see him reaching those milestones. I think he will be crawling by 8 months. He is completely swing free!!! YAY! We stopped using it about the end of June for naps during the day and daycare has stopped as well. His teachers said he has been doing great and I am so happy since I was worried that he would depend on it for his daily naps. He is eating baby solid foods and loves anything with Bananas in it, Sweet Potatoes, Carrots, Green Beans and Mixed Veggies. Ryan started to give him Gerber Graduate Puffs this week and Wyatt isn't to sure about them but we are working on it. He drinks out of a sippy cup most times but loves to chew on the nipple more than anything. He drinks four 6oz bottles a day. He is sleeping from 7-7:30 p.m. to about 5:30a.m. He takes two naps a day on average but sometimes will take three short naps. They are never over an hour long. Other that that, he is doing great and we look forward to seeing what new things he does next month. Oh, he should be a little over 20lbs. We took him to the doctor two weeks ago and he was 19lbs. 14oz. I couldn't tell you how long he is, but he is long! He will not go back to the doctor until his 9 month check up, which should be in September right before our beach trip!!
