William

Will is over 7 months old now, and I haven't posted an update one him since he was 5 months.  To be honest, I've just been busy with life and haven't really wanted to do an update until today.  Today Will and I are both at home sick.  We are skipping church.  So, I picked now to get caught up with some posts.

Will has been sick and fussy the past 3 or 4 days.  He broke his first tooth on Wednesday, so I think that is what brought on the cold symptoms.  And even though he has not been feeling well, he really has been a pretty happy baby through it all.  He also decided to tackle some other things recently, besides breaking his first tooth.  He now sits up on his own, which we both are excited about.  It allows him to play longer on the floor with his toys, and he doesn't get frustrated with being stuck on his tummy.  He scoots around pretty well, he hasn't started crawling or anything yet but loves his new freedom of getting around.  He loves the sound of his own voice. He screams, yells, babbles, and giggles to hear it.  It so fun!  He is just getting to have such a fun personality, I love it.  He still doesn't love baby food.  He has a very strong gag reflex, and throws up a lot of stuff.  He does love flavored baby puffs and baby cheetos.  Two days ago he tried some apple crisp and devoured it!  That's my boy!

 He absolutely loves his baby jumper, so much that he decided to sleep in it.

 He loves to grab his feet and suck on his toes.

His first time sitting up on his own in the tub.  He loved smacking his hands against the water.
