7 months in pictures

Elliot looks like such a big boy in this picture... he has grown a lot in this month.
He loves doing anything Daddy does... when Josiah first started to play the drums with Elliot in his arms Elliot took the drumsticks away from him.  
 
I asked Josiah if he showed how to hold the sticks but Elliot did it all on his own... and would be drumming and just look up at me smiling!
Before Elliot was actually crawling he would get on one side a lot and hold himself with one arm.  It always looked like he was going to start some sort of exercise.
Now he is such a good crawler and we have had to "baby proof" the house.  He usually stays out of trouble and enjoys finding new things to entertain himself for awhile. 
He still does not love solid foods... one thing he has liked was apples, other than that he hasn't been a fan of much.  He does like sweet potatoes better than yams but most foods just end up all over his face instead of his mouth. 
Dad is a lot less messy than when Mommy feeds him... oh well.
He likes to grab his thigh for some reason, I think it's cute...
We got a tote for his toys but to him the tote was a new toy.  He had some fun with Daddy playing with it like it was a canoe...

The other night he was crawling around and decided to roll over to me and lay with me.  It was so sweet!  Josiah was fast enough to catch the precious moment!  Elliot is such a sweet boy the other day while I was holding him he kissed my cheek,  I love these moments especially!
Josiah decided that the beanie would be some form of a helmet for his falls... a small cushion is better than none.
