Colson- 7 months old

7 months old!  It goes by too fast, you need to stop growing up so stinkin' fast little man!

Yep, this little guy loves his sisters!  They take good care of him and make sure he always has a supply of toys right in his face- literally!  He loves them both and is happiest when they are giving him attention- which they both do often.  Katelyn wants to carry him around. She doesn't understand that he weighs 20 pounds and she only weighs about 36...  Adelyn likes to bring him toys and let us know when he has spit up (which he still does often).

He was 29 inches long at his 6 month well check.  That is how tall Katelyn and Adelyn were at the 12 month well check!!!

Bath time is still a favorite this this little guy!  And since he has started eating puree's each evening, he needs a bath almost everyday!  

Colson is still very happy almost all the time.  We took him to the Children's ENT to check his eye and his ears.  He had fluid on his ears at his 4 and 6 month well check.  The ENT told us he now has an infection, so we are giving antibiotics and going back in a few weeks to re-check.  He will also have a hearing test at that point to make sure the fluid didn't cause any damage to his hearing.  The doctor confirmed the spot on his eye is a dermoid and he wasn't too concerned just yet.  He said we need to MRI it to make sure it isn't connected to anything and then have it removed, but he said we could do that whenever we feel comfortable.  The doctor was more concerned about the ear.

Colson is going through a small attachment to Mommy phase.  He is fine with someone else, until I walk in the room or walk by- then he wants me.  He still goes to childcare at church and the YMCA just fine.

(Can you tell that he likes pictures just as much as his Daddy?!?)

Sweet boy- love that smile!

Teeth!  These aren't new this month, but I finally got a good picture of them.  He loves to chew on anythings.  Toys, shoes, whatever.  He is also a grabber.  His favorite thing to grab is hair!  He will get a good handful and NOT LET GO!!!  Katelyn and Adelyn have learned to just yell at me, "He's got my hair" and not move. If they pull away, he will hold on so tight that he'll rip it out!

Here are some pictures from a few days ago.  I love the reactions of each of them... Somewhat happy-

Uh-no, Colson is not enjoying laying on the itchy grass...

Adelyn- I'm done

Colson- I'm done

Katelyn- It's okay, I'll make him happy...

Colson is still a mover.  He army crawls everywhere.  On Tuesday he crawled out of his pants, literally!  I think he is so good at the army crawl that he isn't worried about learning how to crawl up off the ground..  He eats one meal a day of purees.  He is sleeping okay, still not great.  I wonder if the ears are making his sleeping uncomfortable?  He is very independent and happy.  

Happy 7 month birthday little man!
