7 Months

Jackson is 7 months old! I feel like I was just writing his 6 month post. Where did the time go? Jackson is such a sweet little boy.  He had a rough month this month—he had surgery and a pesky cold that won’t go away. He constantly has a runny nose. He’s learned that if he takes his fist a wipes it, it’ll go away! (Well, away as in all over his face!) Or he will bury his head in Ryan or my clothes and rub it on us. See! He is already learning how to share! 

I don’t think I ever posted Jackson’s 6 month statistics:

Height: 29 inches (99th percentile)

Weight: 21 lbs (89th percentile)

Head Circumference: Don't remember the measurement (90th percentile)

 

Jackson has super long legs! 

Interesting facts about 7 month old Jackson:

--Started doing this thing where he opens his mouth and shakes his head back and forth. Then he laughs. It’s pretty funny.

--Has tried peas, blueberries, and sweet potatoes baby food and apple/prune juice. I think this baby will eat anything we give him. One time, Ryan mixed peas and prune juice because of constipation, and Jackson ate it! Yuck! 

--Loves his stuffed animals. He thinks they are real animals and laughs when we move them around for him.

--We read him a touch-and-feel book every night before he goes to bed. He now thinks every book is a touch-and-feel book—including my kindle.

 

--Jackson gets up on his hands and knees and rocks back and forth. It looks like he is trying to jump start his crawl.

--Has crazy hair with lots of cowlicks.

--He is one cute kid!!
