new milestone

On Friday Aug. 12 Henry is sitting on his own. That's at 4m4wks adjusted age and at 7m1week post his birth. He is doing great. Very strong. Started pulling himself up to sitting while in a bouncy seat. He is very talkative. He is loud especially on the mornings. He loves chewing on his hands and feet. He naps 3 times a day. Usually at 8am and noon and then a short nap during an afternoon walk. His 2 naps are usually anywhere from an hour and a half up to 3 hours. He doesn't sleep well in a car or his stroller. He sleeps the best in his crib. If I leave the house during his nap time he has a hard time falling asleep in the car. It will be hard once Roman starts preschool cause his nap times will be interrupted by me driving Roman back and forth.

7 months old

Ever since Henry was born I took a picture of him each month he turned another month. I believe I skipped one month, can't remember which one, I took one a day later I believe. I didn't get a chance to take one today. We went to children's park in KC. With Roman I took one each week of his life. I feel bad that I have been such a slacker. So we have been living at our new home for 2 weeks now. The weather has been extremely hot, triple digits.

Lets see, Henry is definitively not doing things that a 7 month old should, but technically he is not 7 months old, he is 4.5months old and he is for sure right on target. He is rolling over from front to back and back to front, he has been doing that for awhile. He is pushing himself up on his arms. He discovered his feel about 3 weeks ago. He babbles and giggles. He eats anywhere from 5-9oz at a feeding. I have tried cereal and avocado, did ok. I should try again. He sleeps through the night, he falls asleep on his own. No need for rocking etc. He naps 2wice a day for about 2-4h at the time. He is not a big fan of his car seat. Doesn't care to ride in the car. He is probably over 16lbs. Not sure exactly how heavy but wears 6-9month old clothing. He is happy, social baby. He likes riding in the stroller but it has been too hot to take him outside.
