7 months

Time is really flying by.  Bennett is going to be one before we know it.  He's had a great month!  He cut his first tooth, but it wasn't easy!  I won't go into details but let's just say our neighbor came to the rescue with something called Super Duper Diaper Goo!  On January 1st he rolled over for the first time and was happy about it, but he didn't do it again for about a week.  He's only done it one other time and that was in his crib but he was not happy about it!  He hasn't tried to crawl yet.  He sits up really well and loves to play with toys.  He's happy with just about anything you put in front of him unless he's hungry he just wants food.  I decided to go ahead and give him bananas and he loves them.  He doesn't like applesauce along with green beans and peas.  All of those make him gag which possibly lead to vomiting so I'm just going to leave those out of the rotation for a while. :)  I think he should be able to go all night without waking and most nights he goes until 5am so I'm hopeful he'll keep that up.  He's still as happy as can be!!

Ella is a proud and helpful big sister.  She likes to feed him, but only for a bite or two and then she has better things to do like play with her princess tower.  She does love her baby brother and gives him lots of hugs.  I think she's anxious for him to be able to play with her.  However, she's very girly so I'm not sure if he'll be interested in playing with the same stuff.  Hopefully he'll toughen her up...that sure would make daddy happy!

Wow, I just rolled over!
