7 months

How are my babies already 7 months????  It absolutely blows my mind.  They now act more like little people than babies.  We are starting to have a little jealousy issues.  They always want each other's toys, pacis and of course mommy and daddy's undivided attention.  Sometimes it feels like I don't have enough hands or time but we are learning how to juggle it all. 

Little Miss Harper you have become the most low key, chill baby.  You love to play independently but you also love to play with your brother.  You roll all over the place no matter what is in your path, whether it be your brother, toys or the dogs.  You are jabbering and smiling like crazy and seem to have so many words on the tip of your tongue.  We love you sweet baby girl!
Weight:  approx. 18 lbs 5 oz
Clothes:  mostly 6 months but we are transitioning to 6-9 months
Food:  You have 4 bottles a day (5 oz and 8 oz before bed) and 3 meals in between.  You groan between each bite of food, it’s almost like you are saying more please.
Likes:  your daddy’s red Devon hat, the puppies, your brother, outdoors, any toy in sight (you hoard the toys and always take what your brother is playing with), Sophie, peek-a-boo and the claw
Sleep:  You are still our sleeping champ!  The instant your two fingers go in your mouth we know you are tired.  You are usually asleep within a minute of going in your crib.  You typically sleep 10-11 hours a night and then take 2 two hour naps.

Little Man, you have taken the reins of being the needy child from your sister and embraced it fully!  You always want someone sitting right next to you playing.  Your sister would love to play with you but she just isn’t doing it for you yet.  I am trying to embrace your neediness because someday you won’t want us to be around.  You are still such a smiley and chatty little man.  Your legs are constantly bicycling and your arms are always moving.  We love you wild and crazy little man.
Weight:  approx. 18 lbs 5 oz
Clothes:  mostly 6 months but we are transitioning to 6-9 months
Food:  YOU LOVE FOOD.  The instant you see your bottle or the spoon you get so excited.  I have to hide your bottle until it’s time to eat or you will freak out if you see it.  You eat the same amounts as your sister
Likes:  outside, Sophie, any teething toys, the puppies, rattles, peek-a-boo, your feet, empty bottles, the claw
Sleep:  We had a little setback with sleep when you were sick but we are now back on track.  You sleep 10 hours a night with 2 two hour naps. 








This face cracks me up!
