7 Months

Monty is growing up so fast! He is now 7 months and can do incredible things! He is such a good eater and loves to try the food that we all eat.
He is so interested in everything that goes into our mouths. 

He knows who his mom is, and is quite attached; which I don't mind at all. I love it! I love being the one that calms him down. He is a BIG TIME cuddler. I thought Dawson was a cuddler.... but Monty is even more cuddly. He likes to play with my hair or his at any time of the day. 

He loves his big brother. He loves it when Dawson plays with him or holds him. The other day, Dawson picked up Monty and Monty started squealing so loud and giggling uncontrollably. When Dawson would set him down, he'd stop. Dawson would pick him up and he'd start up again. IT was SO CUTE! Dawson loves him back just as much. He loves to put Monty's hands on his hair so Monty will play with his hair. He loves to help feed him and make him smile. 

Monty is extremely strong. He has been since he was born. He is starting to crawl... so far it's just back wards, but he is getting there. He can go from a crawl to a sit and sit to a crawl. He loves to jump and stand. He can pull himself up into a stand position. He loves it and thinks he is so funny because he can do so much. 

 And if he falls down he's pretty sad. 

 He has such a big smile if you can get him to share it with you. Usually he's pretty happy, but if he doesn't want to smile he won't. His sad face is heartbreaking. His bottom lip pushes out and trembles, and he looks right at you with sadness. When he smiles though, you can't help but smile and forget all you worries. 

 Monty is not very patient when it comes to eating. When he wants to nurse, he means right then! He doesn't want to wait for me to get ready , and put a blanket over me. He will scream and scream until he is actually eating. I can't help but laugh...lol

One important thing about Monty, is that he LOVES water. He loves to drink it from a water bottle first and foremost, but a cup will usually suffice. 

 Most of it goes out and down his shirt, but he still can't get enough. 

 He is doing so good holding a cup on his own. 

Happy 7 months Monty. You win over everyone's heart and you love it. We wish time would stop, but then again we love watching you grow and reach new mile stones. Love you buddy!
