Happy 7 Months, Stinkeroo!

My dear, sweet little man. This has been one of the strangest months yet. Between the puking, the food allergies, the realization that you need to be socialized before you become an anti-social unibomer, it’s all been new.
Every month, you have a million new accomplishments that just don’t seem like they should’ve come so quickly. You sit in shopping carts, you sit in the “big boy” seat at the restaurant, you don’t even nurse until you fall asleep anymore. You nurse , roll over onto your back and fall asleep. That’s not to say you can do it by yourself, though. You still keep at least one hand on me to make sure I haven’t moved. It’s a very sweet way of saying, “I don’t NEED you here but I do need you here.”
You’ve also started opening your own books and, to my surprise, turning the pages one at a time. If that weren’t enough, you point (with the left hand, because “one finger at a time” hasn’t quite been figured out by the right hand yet) to things on the page.
“That’s a doughnut…and that’s a duck-dog.”
“Geeeeeth…rah rah raaaaaah rah raaaah.” You remind me that there is no such thing as a duck-dog.
“May I have the book please?” I’ll put out my hand.
You throw it at my head. At least you kind of get the concept.
I’m so proud of you, little guy. You’re so smart, so lovely and you manage to fill the universe with more joy than I thought was possible. 7 months has gone by like 5 minutes. I cherish every moment I have with you because I just know tomorrow I’m going to wake up and you’re going to be grown.
Happy 7 months, little man. I love you, dearly.
Yer Ma’
