Happy 7 Months Coop!

Another month has flown on by...and this little man is growing by leaps and bounds!!  It's amazing how quickly he has been changing...even from week to week.  Here are some monthly stats on amazing Mr. C this month!

Weight: At 6 month check up was 19lb 6oz. At next doctor's visit (for ear infection) he was 20lbs 13oz. Little hunk a chunk!
Eye Color: Remains Blue
Diaper Size: Still 4's

*Has started wearing all 9 month and some 12 month clothes!
*Loves to roll over and uses this skill to get him where he wants to go!
*Crawling but backwards...and trying really hard to go forward!
*Is all over the house between the backwards crawl and the rolling and sitting. 
*Has gotten his feet stuck under his bed, under the couch and under the entertainment center. We have also found him under his jumper.  Maniac!
*Has sat up on his own several times now. He can't always do it whenever he wants, but he is getting there!!
*Making ALL kinds of babbling sounds. Da, da, da is his fave.  Also have ba's and ga's in there too.
*Lights up when he sees his Dadda.
*Has started eating lots of fun solid foods!  At his six month check up the doctor said to start challenging him with different textures.  Puffs, peas, pasta and even green beans...this boy loves to eat!
*Loves to grab your face and give you kisses.
*Loves it if you blow air in his face.
*Thinks it's absolutley hilarious if you sigh at him.
*Has the greatest baby laugh in the history of baby laughs...and often gets the hiccups!
*Spent his first overnight with Aunt Steff and Uncle B and Peyton two weekends ago and his first overnight at Grandma Stacey and Grandpa Mike's the following weekend.  He was reportedly a good boy :)
*Has had his second ear infection and nasty cold.  He spent a few nights propped on Dadda's shoulder while Dadda slept on the couch. Dadda's great like that!
*Thinks remotes, phones and anything electronic are great and should be in his hands immediately. Boys!
*Loves his bin of toys we have on the shelf for him...some of his favorites include these simple stocking stuffers I found.  They are a Fisher Price bean shaped toy that fit in his hand. They have weights and fall end of over end if you push them. Purcey likes them too ;)

By the Month:
Month 6
Dear Coop,

7 whole months old!  Over half a year already.  7 months ago I held you in my arms for the first time and fell in love.  You make us smile daily, laugh daily and make this Momma's heart melt daily.  Just like your brother does! Even the tough days melt away with one kiss or silly belly laugh. 

It's been so much fun watching you work on crawling, talking, eating and everything else. I can't wait to see what other marvels you have to show off in the months to come!  As always you keep life fun, a little crazy and full to the brim!!

We love you baby boy.
Momma and Dadda
