7 Months

Note: I wrote this post and took the pictures the day before Evan turned 7 months old (on Nov. 4).  Oops.

Oh my, how did this happen already?  Evan, you were supposed to stay 6 months for a good long time.  That way I can still consider you only half a year old.  Now you are much closer to 1 year than birth.  Son, you are growing too fast!



Eat

Your eating schedule is pretty much the same except that you are eating twice a day instead of just once.   You wake up anywhere from 5:00am to 6:30 to eat and go to the babysitter.  You usually have 2-3 bottles during the day and a few ounces of solid food.  You then come home and nurse once and have your second round of solid food.  You take a 6 ounce bottle at night.

Foods you have tried so far include: green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, squash, apples, pears, bananas, and prunes.


Sleep

Your sleep habits have not changed much since last month.  You grace us with sleeping through the night about 4 nights a week.  I consider sleeping until 5am as sleeping through the night.  Oh how my perception has changed after you came into our life!



Sizes

You are starting to grow out of your 6 month clothes and you mostly wear 9-12 month clothes these days. You are still in a size 2 diaper.
