7 months

Jojo is 7 months today and has become an unstoppable object. He does not like to sit still for long at all. So pictures were a bit difficult because he kept moving. To be precise, he kept trying to steal the camera away from his daddy no matter how far Daddy moved away.

It was easier to place him on some pillows, partially propping him up. It took him a little while to figure out how to get out of that position so we snapped a few photos quickly. Jojo is so long that the shirt looks like it won't last to his first birthday... Sigh.

Yes he is trying to get away from me and head towards Daddy.

Hi Daddy! Can I have that shiny thing?

So at 7 months Jojo is:

Babbling all the time (if he is quiet, it is because he asleep)

Growling/roaring at his daddy (David taught him to do it and now when ever Jojo sees David he growls)

Crawling... kinda; we don't have the coordination down yet

Smashing toys into the floor, tray, tabletop, etc

Eating, no interest in feeding himself but eats plenty when fed

Still waiting on those teeth to come through

Sleeping in his own room at night

Almost sleeping through the night (only gets up once!!!!!)

Soothing himself back to sleep

Drinking from a cup on occasion

Playing with my phone or keyboard

Getting into and his hands on EVERYTHING especially things he isn't supposed to get

He keeps changing so fast now. In fact, today I put his hat on his head and I think it is too small now when it fit just fine yesterday. He babbles "ma ma", "da da", "ba", and "de" frequently. We're working on associating the sounds with things (Mama, Dada or Dade, and ball) while trying to keep him out of things. I think it's a lost cause trying to stop him from being into everything. Oh well. He is still my sweet little boy and sometimes I am still the only person he wants. He loves cuddles and all the attention he can get. I love my little man and can't believe he's seven months old already!
