7 Month Update

Baby Colton is 7 months old! 

We recently had family pictures taken and they turned out wonderfully! I didn't put the post on Facebook, so here it is in case you missed it: Family Pictures  - This has the link to our full photo session, as well as my favorite pictures. 


And here is a quick update, lots of photos, and a couple of videos on our favorite little baby man.

  • Colton is almost crawling! He is so close. He can push up on all fours, or into a push-up plank position. He is slowly learning to bring his knee up to start crawling. For now, he can push himself backward, or turn side-to-side. 
  • He continues to love food. He has tried more and more different solid foods, and he has enjoyed it all. We have yet to find a food he doesn't like. 
  • He's also an excellent eater- he gets excited when he sees the spoon coming his way. Surprisingly, he isn't a very messy eater. I don't always need to put a bib on him. (I'm sure that will change once he gets control over the spoon). 
  • Sleeping during the night is going much better. He normally goes to bed between 8 and 9, and sleeps until 5:30 or 6. He still wakes up a few times during the night, but goes back to sleep once we give him his pacifier. 
  • He loves to reach and grab for anything and everything. It's amazing how much damage those little hands can cause, and how quickly he can get into something! 
  • Colton is still the cutest little baby in the whole world :)

More time with Daddy

Just thinking 'bout my toys.

Colton managed to scoot all the way around his toys and backward...

He continued to scoot backwards until he got to the entryway closet, where he found a shoe. 

Happy boy

Mornings with my little man.



He was NOT feeling post-bath time. 

Picture Day!

Playtime with our friend, Whitney

He scooted backwards and got stuck under the chair!

Taking his stroller ride very seriously. (those lashes though)

Awww that little face

Look at that little smile.

Don't mind me, just rolling onto my toys. 

Playtime with Baby Clive! These little guys are only two months apart. 


10 points if you can spot the baby.

    1. I can see why! He is so fun to play with and interact with, and he is always learning new things. And thank you- I loved seeing Beckett's 8 month pictures too!
