Seven Months

Dear Max,
I am struggling to write this post because that means admitting that you are another month older and another step away from not being my little baby anymore. So much has changed in the last month it is unreal. You are crawling all over the place now, and pulling yourself up onto things. I know you are going to be a fast walker, even though I would rather you remain immobile for as long as possible.

You have your only little personality that is coming out with every day. You have also become quite the screecher whenever you are happy or excited. It reminds me of your Auntie Carly when she was a baby. You scream and demand peoples attention, not because you need something or because you are upset, just because you want people to look at you and take notice of what you are doing.
You love to chase your brother around, and even though he is not the nicest big brother in the world, and he tends to get a little rough with you, you still love to follow him from room to room and try to participate in whatever he is doing. You are at the stage where you love to being interacting with someone at all times. You love to play with just about any of your brother's toys and you loves to put just about anything you can find in your mouth. No matter how many times I vacuum, you still seem to be able to find that little piece of string or fuzz that I missed and shove it quickly into your mouth.

Another part of your personality that has come out, is how much you hate the cold. Ever since you were a baby, you loved being very warm and having plenty of blankets piled on top of you, but I never realized just how much you hate the cold. We took you to Zoolights and to the snow in Bend and both places you were completely miserable.

It is amazing to watch you grow and change every day. As much as I dont want you to get any bigger, it is such a thrill to watch you experience new things and become such a cute little person. I love you, Max!
Love, Mommy
