7 Months!!

We are now at Ashton's 7 month mark so time for another post. As for an update on us first. We are still not in our house. Its quite discouraging, but we're trying to be patient. Hopefully within the next two weeks, but you never know with the rate the builder's going. Luckily we aren't somewhere where we've had to give a move out date or anything like that cause then we would've been in trouble!! We are very grateful to my parents for letting us stay with them in their quite full house these days! Its weird to have all of us siblings (except Jared), and the two additions I've added, living together again. Rory is still working hard, liking his job. I'm still hanging out with my little man every day, and learning to cook for a bigger crowd than I've ever been used to. :)

Now on to our little guy. Here's his 7 month pic!
He kinda looks like he's doing a ballet move or something, haha! As for what he's up to these days:
  • He still is tipsy when he's sitting up. I still don't feel comfortable just leaving him sitting by himself.
  • While drinking his bottle, he now has to always put his left index finger right under his bottom lip. I don't see how this is comfortable for him but he does it every feeding!
  • We found a vegetable that he doesn't like... green beans! He's always been really good about eating, but yesterday he would not open his mouth for those green beans! I can't blame him, just the smell alone would make me not want to eat them!
  • He is now a tummy sleeper. I always put him down on his back, but every time I go in his room to get him he is on his tummy.
  • He is quite the cruiser in his little walker now. He loves it, and just goes in circles around my mom's island in the kitchen!
  • And the big news, as of this week... we are mobile! He started the army crawl about two days ago. Its been super fun to watch him. It takes quite a bit of energy so he gets tired quick, but he is getting it down!
  • I think that's about all for Ashton this month. Here are a few extra pics! Enjoy!
