7 Months!


How is this even possible?!?! Barrett is becoming so independent! And determined. He wantseverything that that he can't have. He has learned to stick out his tongue, wants to feed himself (although I'm pretty confident he is going to gag himself with his spoon), now has SIX teeth, and has learned to crawl! Watching him is hysterical because he raises his hands slooooowly as high as he can before he actually moves forward. He's still figuring it all out.

Below are his 7 month pictures:





Things I Don't Want to Forget:
  • the only way he takes a nap is by reading 1 Fish 2 Fish first
  • how he starts falling asleep while I'm reading
  • the look on his face when he falls asleep in my arms
  • how excited he is that he can actually move on his own (and go for that toy that is just out of reach)
  • how he looks up just to make sure I'm still there while he's playing ... and then the smily of reassurance I get once he spots me
  • our night time ritual of prayer time as he falls asleep on my shoulder
  • the sparkle in his eyes when he sees something he wants
  • morning play time = the BEST Mommy + Barrett time
  • the look on his face when Daddy comes home from work
  • the uncontrollable giggle he makes when Daddy tickles his tummy
  • how family dance time makes him smile (I'm pretty sure he's already thinking how uncool we are somewhere in the back of his head ... but he puts up with us!)
  • the way his arms and legs start moving when he sees his bottle. And the smile on his face that comes with it.
  • how much he loves his Mommy. One day I'm going to have to tell him I don't know how to fix everything
