7 Months!!

Oh my! I know is say this every time but time is flying by so fast. I catch myself looking at newborns and thinking "oh look at the baby". I know technically E is still a baby but it sure doesn't feel that way.

Weight- 19lbs ~yes it is safe to say that I have a chunker on my hands.

Feeding- Ahh his feedings have been so crazy this month. I have played with several different things trying to get him to take his milk but I think he is about over formula. Yes I know that he needs formula and I do my best but the only time he will drink all of his bottle is first thing in the morning and right before he goes to bed. During the day I may get him to drink 2-3 oz. Maybe I should cut back on the baby food, IDK. Right now he is taking 4 bottles a day. 7oz in the morning and at night and like I said his two during the day he may drink 3 oz each. He is still eating baby food 3 times a day.

Sleeping- I don't think I will be posting this anymore because it pretty much stays the same. He sleeps through the night and takes 2 naps a day. He still doesn't nap for very long in his crib, he usually wakes up after 45 min. For his afternoon nap I usually get him up and cuddle on the couch just so he will sleep another hour. This saves us from a melt down around 6:00. Again probably not the best thing to do but I don't know how to make him sleep longer in his crib.
~ I just want to say a big THANK YOU to the time change because E is now going to bed at 8 and sleeping until 7. We actually can go out and eat after 5:00 now thank goodness. I also love sleeping until 7 as well :)

Milestones:
Not much change since last month. Especially since I didn't get finished with last months post until a week and half ago ;)
  • He is sitting like a pro now. He also goes from sitting position to tummy and pushes up on his arms so I am happy to at least see some signs for crawling. Although, I am in no hurry to be running around like a chicken with my head cut off making sure he stays out of everything.
  • He is doing better with the sippy cup but still doesn't seem to have a lot of interest in it.
  • He has added bu bu bu and da da da to his babbling. Which of course we translate as bye bye and da da.
  • He stayed in the nursery for the first time this past Sunday. He no longer wants to nap during preaching. Instead he likes to talk and scream. He also is started getting more scared of things. On this particular day he did not like the music.
I'm not sure how good Easton is going to be at making friends if he does not get over grabbing people's faces and hair. Every kid we have come in contact with he goes straight for the face and hair and most of them cry. Except for his friend Aiden and oddly enough he seems to like it, he goes back for more. They were destined to be best friends ;)

My sweet, beautiful son is starting to get a Josh Faile attitude/temper as well. And if you know Josh Faile you know that that is not a good thing ( I love you hunny:)) Today we were at the pediatricians office and he was sitting in the floor chewing on the diaper bag. Every time I reached into the diaper to get something he screamed bloody murder, like he was saying " Hey woman that's my bag, don't touch." Yep I'm in for it.

Speaking of the pediatricians office, we went because he has been broke out for 2 weeks with a rash on his back. We have come to find out that he has eczema :( The good thing is it doesn't seem to bother him.

OK now for the fun part- PICTURE TIME!!
