7 Months

Time really does fly with a baby. I don't know where the days go, the minutes go. I finally have a few moments though to work on Patrick's seven month post while he's out at the beach with Daddy and the dogs. Beach walks are the best because we (the adult humans) get some good, peaceful exercise, the dogs get thoroughly exhausted, and Patrick will always take a nap while strapped to the chest of Mommy or Daddy in the carrier.

Well, here's the little man taking his 7 Month glamour shot.




















Patrick proceeded to chew and suck on his 7 Month sticker until it was a slobbery mess all of the floor!

Patrick started rolling over a couple weeks ago! He is very active during his tummy time. He pushes himself backwards, pivots in circles and has impressive "superman" technique. No crawling yet though.

The only tv we watch with him is sports. Last week he held himself up on him belly for about 25 minutes to watch the Giants game. When properly motivated, he can get a good workout in!

Besides that, nothing else has really changed, he's just getting bigger and better at his current activities. As yo can tell from the photos, Patrick is very good at eating! He is devouring his solid food these days! He's a solid little sitter and his coordination and grip playing with his toys while sitting has improved dramatically. He's finally figured out that if he wants to chew on a toy, he can bring the toy to his mouth, rather than doing a head dive and bringing his head to the toy!


Patrick enjoys spending time outside with Dad, watching the dogs and the ducks and looking at all the pretty colors. He laughs when he watches the dogs playing. It's the cutest stinkin' thing! Bailey and Sophie are such
good guardians too; they always stay close by. 


Patrick also loves him jumper, and so do I! He loves to jump and move around...all the time! Sometimes when I'm working out and getting tired, it feels like he's mocking me as he just keeps jumping and laughing and smiling as I'm in agony. 





















After the jumper...passed out. Success!
Finally, I have a few beautiful pictures from Auntie Frances. Enjoy!
