So Much Change, So Fast!

Since turning 7 months old, he has started to mimic sounds – like “Momma and Dada” and even says “ahah” for Laura! Its not always the most clear noises, but I think he’s trying to talk :D

About a week and a half ago, Daniel discovered the joy of rolling! He loves to move around now, and doesn’t mind tummy time – since he knows how to roll to his back.

He is also sitting up for very long stretches of time.

He is also almost completely weaned from nursing… I’m thinking that this morning was probably the last time. It is sad for me, but he LOVES his bottle and is getting more food this way. We took it slow, over the past two weeks, and I know the end is very near. I made my goal of 6 months+ even with that horrible first month and a half. It was a wonderful time that we were able to bond and I highly recommend it to future Moms!

Daniel also loves to be outside! I take him outside as much as possible – for walks, or just to sit in the grass or on the front step. When we went in the pool a few days ago I slathered him up in sunscreen, but he’s still getting tan (not red) from the short times that we are outside. People keep saying that he has my complexion.

Daniel’s Uncle Steven graduated from High School last week. He leaves for boot camp on July 8th. Please remember him in your prayers!

We have a number of friends that are expecting babies this summer and later this year. Please remember to pray for pregnant women, healthy babies and all of those that are trying to conceive.

God Bless!
