7 Months!

Sweet Ben is growing up way too fast! 7 months have zoomed right past and he's still happy so we must be doing something right!:)

Some highlights from the last month:

• Ben is sitting up - he's actually really good at it but that doesn't mean that we don't have the occasional topple over
  


• He graduated to a convertible car seat - he was way too heavy to be carrying in the infant seat but this is also a bummer because there's no more sleeping baby while at Target, Wal Mart, etc.
  


• Went to his first VBS
  


• Started Zyrtec - I'm afraid that Ben is taking the Kate route, which means eczema and allergies. He has had a cough for the last 3 weeks so I took him in last week and Dr. Hughes is really thinking that it's allergies. Hopefully the Zyrtec will bring him some relief from the coughing.
  


• Ben made his first road trip to Illinois to visit and meet PopPop's family
  


• Went swimming for the first time but I see alot more of this in his foreseeable future!

I love this boy so much and could easily squeeze him and love on him all day long and so could his sisters, especially Kate! He is just so happy, and smiley, and giggly, and agreeable...he makes it easy to love him.

I'm afraid that sign days are behind us. He
just wants to put it in his mouth!:)
