NO LONGER TOOTHLESS

This is a little late, but X isn't toothless anymore!  His bottom two teeth finally poked their way through and are growing fast.  It's really hard for me to get pictures of his teeth since he moves around so much, so this crappy, blurry picture is all I've managed to get thus far.  You can't even really see them :( oh well.  I never thought teeth could be so cute.

7 MONTHS!

Well...This post is a little late.  What's new right?  After much anticipation (kidding), this is how X's little ice cream theme turned out.  Nothing spectacular, I know, but I like it.  I made a couple of little ice cream stuffies, but they didn't make the shoot because X was not feeling them.  What a waste of time that was...thanks X!  JK.  

So...this 7 month picture was a new experience.  For all the other monthly photos X hasn't been mobile so keeping him in place wasn't exactly an issue.  That's all changed now that he's crawling.  Now I can't get him to sit still.  I had to bribe the kid with a freaking Yogurtland spoon (he likes spoons).  Once I finally got him to sit in place I had to hurry with the shots since I knew the spoon wouldn't keep his interest for long.  Thankfully I was able to get a few pictures in before he crawled away to his toys.  I guess we managed to do something right with these pictures since Modern Burlap reposted it.  It's not his first MB rodeo, but it's always fun seeing X show up in a post from a brand we support.

Well...I have a phone on the fritz that I must tend to since I'm having major Instagram withdrawals.  Damn my stupid phone!  Grrrrrrrrrrrr.  Next months picture sneak peeks, sneak peek:  HALLOWEEN...duh!  I guess these sneak peeks are going to be a thing now?

Just had to throw this picture in here because look at how he sleeps!  His little foot!  Every.  Single.  Night.  Time to get a breathable crib bumper.  They aren't cute, but safety first they say.

SNEAK PEEK!

X's 7 month photo prep is in the works, and I thought I'd give a little pre-photo sneak peek on what the theme is.  It's been disgustingly hot these past few days so this theme was definitely influenced by my insatiable need to cool down, and well...because I just love me some ice cream.  I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!  Check back next Friday to see the final picture!  Now the question is...do I let X try ice cream for this?  Humm...

X IS ON THE MOVE!

No...we aren't moving.  Today while I was half asleep and pumping, X was keeping me company playing on his mat.  I was being an Instagram whore on my phone when all of a sudden I look up and bam! He's right in front of me.  I had such a delayed reaction.  It really wasn't registering that he was actually crawling (I blame the early hour that it happened).  So now I have a 6.5 month old that is on the move, which means it's time to put away all the sharp objects and cover up the outlets.  This is going to take some getting used to, but at the same time it's so exciting.  I cherish these milestones, and as more and more of them occur, it just makes me realize how fast he's growing up.  Before I know it he'll be walking and then talking (or vice versa), and then...oh I don't even want to think that far ahead.  I miss my little newborn, but X is super fun now and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for him.  Maybe now that he finally crawled he'll sleep through the night.  *Fingers crossed!*
