7 Months!

On February 2nd Maddox turned Seven months. It is truly incredible all that happens in such a short period of time. Every single day is new and exciting. He is getting so BIG and more than that he is really strong. I decided yesterday that it is more his strong will and relentlessness that makes him seem and feel so physically strong. He is quick and will knock something over or grab something quicker than the thought enters my head that maybe I should move it. Its like he is one step ahead of me sometimes. Sneaky little guy. He has started making lots of new noises in the past few weeks. He is an excellent sleeper. Still taking two naps a day and sleeps seven to seven a night. We are blessed! He sits up and plays with his toys and he quickly rolls over to his tummy so he can get up on his hands and knees. He rocks back and forth and back and forth and seems like he really wants to move but just hasn't quite figured it out. His latest thing is that he does not like just being on his hands and knees he wants to be on his hands and tip toes. We are thinking he may bear crawl before knee crawl. It is really funny to watch. He is a great eater and it seems like he always wants more. Between him and his Dad it will be interesting to see how I will keep groceries in this house in the years to come. I can repeat everything I have said so far with each months updates about how amazing this experience has been because just when I think it cant get any better it does. We are enjoying our little guy and really having a blast with him. The thing I think we both agree that we love the most is that he is constantly smiling. Of course he has his moments but truly 99% of the time he is just a smiley little boy. He is happy and reminds us every moment of all we have to be happy about and grateful for. We love you little man.
