7 Months Old

I am so happy month 6 is over! First it was teething which wasn't all that bad. Then came the ear infection, which I am afraid he had for a while and I was thinking it was just teething! Then starting Memorial Day right in time for a family reunion, Bode got the stomach flu. I would normally take a million pictures marking the new month, but he is still throwing up from Monday. I can't wait for him to feel better!
I can't believe he is already 7 months old. I say it every month, but WOW! He looks so much older to me now. I don't feel like he is as chubby. Maybe because he has grown taller, or maybe because he has lost weight being sick all month.
His new favorite thing to do is lay on the floor on his side playing with his toys. He normally has his legs crossed and it looks like he is trying to do some model pose or something. It's hilarious!

He still army crawls all over the place, and for the first time earlier today he crawled! I was outside playing fetch with Gunner, and Bode was laying on the grass. He got up onto all fours and started rocking back and forth. Then he crawled for the first time! He was trying to make his way to the cement.
Even though he has been super sick lately, he still smiles all the time. It's so cute with his two little teeth showing through! He's been way better at sleeping through the night and will only wake up once at 5 am to eat and go back to bed. I have had to rock him to sleep a few times with him not feeling well, and both Clint and I have taken full advantage of him being super snuggly these past few nights.
He loves to talk/scream. He says mamama and bababa. I haven't tried to teach him dada yet because I wanted him to get mama down first. :) I think he enjoys hearing himself. He loves Gunner and watches his every move smiling and laughing at him. He loves his dad and laughs up a storm every time Clint tickles him. There is so much more I can't even think of! All I can think of right now is how my shirt smells like throw up. :( I'll update this with pictures as soon as he's feeling better.
