7 Months

I can sit by myself!

Ready or not here I come!

Me and my sissy in our Easter tshirts I love the zoo!
They call me Ryan Jr.!


Grady is 7 months old now and growing oh so fast! He is becoming quite the eater, eagerly gulping down anything we give him. He looks like a big mouth bass waiting for his next bite! He does seem to prefer mommy's home made baby food over the jarred stuff, I think he notices the texture difference. We typically feed him at meal time, but then have to find something to occupy him while the rest of us finish our meals or he will cry and fuss because he's not eating. We've been using these mesh feeders with him and he loves to suck on frozen cubes of apples or chunks of frozen breast milk. Grady is sitting completely independently now, though he hasn't learned yet the floor is not a soft place to land so I still provide him with the cushion of the Boppy. He is finally sleeping at night, waking only once to nurse between 4:30-5:30. This is a huge improvement from the every 2 hours that he had been waking. And our biggest news is as of three days ago he started army crawling! He has the cutest little way of maneuvering his body around the floor, pulling with his arms and dragging his legs like dead weight behind him. Sissy and her toys are his greatest motivation, he can clear the length of the floor with a quickness when he wants to get to Ava or Minnie!
