Well, Saturday was Russell's 7 month annibirthery. We were at UI Homecoming, and although I told pretty much every person we saw that he was seven months TODAY, it slipped my mind to take his picture. Oops.
 |
| St. Maries band. Pixar extravaganza. |
 |
| All sorts of characters. So fun! |
 |
| Updated family pic. At least one child is looking at the camera. |
 |
| Chillin' in a bin. |
 |
| Also enjoyed the bins. |
 |
| Go Horns! I'm Spiderman! I'm 3! So many options. |
 |
| Yay! Bin! |
 |
| Is that a camera? I had better laugh! |
 |
| Double chin and two teeth. Could he be any cuter? |
 |
| And he even cooperated when I pulled his legs down. |
 |
| Oh my gosh. What is happening here? Who are these crazy characters? |
 |
| Sibs. |
For as much as they all look alike, they really don't. The double chin is there for all of them. (Thanks, mommy.) But Russell is definitely his own kid. For starters he has WAY more hair than either girl did at seven months. (Lucky him. Isn't it always that way for boys?!) And he's just more . . . boy. And I think he has Bob's oblong head - not my round one.
Russell is crawling. Full out crawling at seven months. The girls did not crawl until later. He's not fast yet. But it's more that he's not in a hurry. He sees something he likes or wants to explore and he moseys on over. And of course his favorite things are the fire place and the shoe pile. And maybe chewing on a carpet corner. Yum. But the girls love him and he loves the girls. Mae doesn't really like it when he "gets off the carpet" (the area rug), but she'll need to get over that.
He is still a very good sleeper - naps and at night. And while he is quite scheduled, he can still go with the flow. Very important when you have a sister in school. He is laid back and fun. What more could you want in a baby?
