7 {months} is heaven!

Little man, you are seven months old, and we are in heaven!  You would barely sit still for your picture this month and you refused to hold your "7 months" paper up.


Here are some of the things you are doing these days:

  • you are babbling and saying "mama" 
  • you love blowing bubbles
  • you have two teeth, and two on the way
  • you got your first cold :( .... and then shared it with mom and dad 
  • you rarely fuss and smile a lot
  • you love playing peek-a-boo--especially with dad
  • we love getting slobbery kisses from you
  • you love grabbing anything that you shouldn't have--phones, remotes, plastic bags, sunglasses, keys--basically anything that is off limits
  • no official crawling, but you are scooting about
You are fun, cute, sweet and making us so proud of you!

Mr. Traveler

Liam was quite the traveler this past week.  We flew down and up the state of California... twice!  We started off last Friday with a quick, weekend trip to Los Angeles to visit with Liam's aunt and godmother, Katie; my girlfriends from college (and their kiddos) and to watch dad race around the Fontana speedway in REALLY fast cars.

We then popped home for a day, unpacked, did laundry and repacked for a week in Santa Barbara for a work function.  Grammy Kratz came along and we had a fantasmic time.  While I was in meetings, Grammy and Liam played on the beach, took trail walks and did a LOT of bouncing in front of the mirror.  When I was out of meetings, I snuggle-cuddled with my babe, showed him off to adoring co-workers and enjoyed the beauty of my surroundings.  (Debbie and I also managed to squeeze in massages too!)

It was a whirlwind week, and we are paying for it now with a sick kiddo :(, but it was fun while it lasted.
