You have had an eventful month my son. At times I look at you and see a little boy. It's hard to believe that you have only been here for 7 months, it feels like much longer and then I can't believe it's been 7 months. Here are a few highlights of your month!
You learned how to sit!
You are trying to crawl!
You have two teeth!
You found your sense of humor, even more so than before.
You say "Ba", "Blah", "Ga", "Wa", "Da" (occasionally da-da!) you are quite the talker! This is the face you make when you are in a serious conversation!
And you are still just as cute and sweet as ever!!
You are 22.2 lbs. (100th percentile) 28 in. long (90th percentile) and your head is 47cm. around (95th percentile). You are a big boy! I like you that way.
You enjoy your food and don't object to much. You aren't very fond of green beans but you ate them like such a good boy! I don't blame you, I try everything you eat and they weren't very good.
You sleep very very well, at least 10 hours every night and two good naps during the day!
You have started only wanting mommy and crying when ever I leave the room or when I try to put you down. This has decreased the amount of things I get done in a day and the amount of sleep I get. I get up early to squeeze things in and don't rest when you do, so I can get things done too. So when you are awake you get my full attention. I again need to learn to balance. You are enjoy watching me fold clothes, while you try to grab them to eat them. Of course anything that I turn into a game you are down for!
Those little teeth of yours caused quite a bit of pain for you. Nighttime orajel has been a life saver! Your top two teeth are now trying to make there way into your mouth, but they are coming in a little easier than the first two.
You bring so much joy to us Jake. You have the sweetest giggle and we all do our best to bring it out. All of the adults in your life do the silliest things just to hear you squeal!
We are contemplating getting a dog or giving you a sibling. Oh, man. You will learn that your daddy goes with the flow and your mommy tries to over plan everything. Life is usually better with a balance, that's what we give to each other. We will see what you end up getting. Well, what the family ends up getting.
These recent months have brought a peace to us. We have settled into a routine and rarely do I feel like I don't know what to do. I have opened my eyes to the joy every experience brings. We have come to know each other and depend on each other. We have a special bond and I love that. I will always love that. You are my sweet boy. So very very precious.
