7 months of Graham

Ahhh! This little guy is over 7 months old! I can't believe how big he is getting, and what personality he has! He is so fun to be with, and really, I can hardly get over how dang cute he is. I love him so much I want to just eat him.
 He loves eating. *Also, I realize the Bumbo is on the table... he's never left unattended:) His absolute favorite foods are sweet potatoes and pears. He has yet to try something he doesn't like. He eats between 2-3 meals of solids a day.

 Graham is over 20 lbs, 28 inches, and has a huge head. He sits like a champ, but still refuses to roll or shown any signs of crawling. He lives in a house of 5 girls (and 3 boys, really) who dote on him, so why would he need to crawl? He hardly goes ten minutes without being passed around.
 He loves playing the piano. He looks like a little Schroeder.
 He has one tooth so far (and another dangerously close) and sucks his paci just a little too hard:)
 He's learning how to clap and thinks he is just so great. I love that he's got a healthy little self confidence already:)
 But seriously. That face.


 Yes. He is chewing what you think he is. Those happen to be his number one thing in this whole world to snuggle with. Don't worry. They've been "un-holied."
Graham loves to talk, yell, growl, laugh, scream, and anything else loud. He love to play with Duplo blocks, canning lids, measuring cups and anything else loud. He loves biting (and being bitten, strangely), bathing, standing, reading, faces, mirrors, and fish tanks. He was still being swaddled until last night... he has loved it, but I think he was ready- he has transitioned great so far! We can't wait for summer to be here so we can spend time outside!

Marianne, he is so cute! His face is just so adorable! He looks so much older than he actually is. I love the pictures. They are perfect.

He just get more adorable with every post! That is such a great age for babies.

He has got to be the cutest baby in the whole wide world. He's a crowd stopper, I'm sure. How do you get anything done with such a cute baby on your hands?? He's just precious.

And I have to say how much I just LOVE your latest Chevron quilt. Amazing! I would love to learn how you did it. Could you share? What's the secret? Do you think I could do it??

It was so fun to see Graham in person a few weeks ago. He is a delight! Oh, and my friend was telling me the other day that her kids loved silkies like Graham does and she would cut them up and die them. I wonder if he'd still snuggle up to them if they were blue!?
