Da Real McCoys: 7 Months Old

Mason is 7 months old day, we can't believe it! I feel like we say that every month hehe. He is a total joy, and every day is so fun with him. He is now sitting up un-attended and loves to play with all of his toys that way - especially bouncy balls, anything that makes noise, and read books w/mommy & daddy. He rolls all over the place, but makes no attempt at getting up on all 4's or scooting, so I think it's going to be a while before he's mobile, which is just fine with us! However he loves his jumpy-jump (see past posts) and is now sitting in the jogger stroller "big-boy style". He is also indredibly smily, and givs up big smiles and shrieks to everyone new that walks in the door these days - it's made all of our holiday parties and get togethers that much more fun!
He eats anything we give him, and on top of his normal baby foods (which range from chicken dishes, fruits, veggis & oatmeal), he's also tried some of our food, including squash, sweet potato fries, mashed potatoes, and black beans to name a few. Whenever he sees us eating he stops what he's doing to stare at us and starts smacking his lips together!
He was 15 lbs at his 6 month appointment, and considering he hasn't grown THAT much in the past month I'm thinking he's maybe 16 lbs now. He recognizes his name, as well as "milk", "eat", and "jump", and we're working hard at "mama" and "dada"!!

I love this one of us attempting the monthly picture - really shows how mobile he's getting!
