Brice at 7 months!


Our little Bricey isn't so little any more-- he's becoming a bigger boy every day. He's crawling  like a pro and starting to pull up (oy). The type and number of foods he's eating have expanded and he's even eating real solids! We also started him on a cup. And he's starting to babble.

At 7 months, Brice is:

-Crawling! - He is all over the place and can't be out of sight for a second or he'll find his way into something

-Going from crawling to sitting up-- he just learned that today!


-Pulling up to his knees, even in his crib.  We had to lower the mattress to make sure he wasn't going to climb out.


-Sitting up in the bathtub



-Getting into trouble.  He especially likes Chase's toys so let the fighting begin...




-Eating so many foods-- fruits, vegetables, some (pureed) meats. He loves puffs, mum mums, and chopped up chicken-- anything he can put in his mouth.

-Sort of drinking with a cup...

-Sleeping from about 8pm-5:45am (or waking up at 2:30) and then going back to sleep until 7 or 7:30. Not sure how he's going to sleep while we're traveling for the holidays, though...

-Babbling and repeating syllables. He was doing really well with this (and was especially good at "ba ba ba ba") before he started crawling, then it stopped for a while. Now that he's got crawling down, he's babbling again. And boy is he loud!

-Starting to have separation anxiety. Brice cries when I leave the room, especially if he is not distracted.

- Being adorable, although that is not new.  He is happiest, at least smiling the most, when we pick him up and/or change his clothes.  We get the biggest smiles from out sweet boy!

- Belly laughs - this too has been happening for awhile, but it is still hysterical.  It's especially pronounced when he is tickled and it is so sweet.


-This month Brice had his first haircut (even though he already needs another one!)






Time is passing too quickly! I can't believe how fast he is growing up. Brice is hitting many of these milestones earlier than Chase, so it makes it seem like the time is going even faster. Regardless, we are so proud of all of his developments and can't wait to see what he's got planning for month 8...but no walking yet, please!
