Seven months old

Well as I mentioned a few months back, we've started celebrating our January 31st birthday boy on the first of every month since there isn't a 31 in every month. It seems to work well. And that would make September 1st the day to celebrate seven months for Elijah. Here are some highlights of his current life:

• Eating nearly any type of baby food
• Eating some puffs and soft foods; doesn't gag like his big brother did
• Rolling and crawling but can't sit up from a lying down position yet
• Grabs everything especially his big brother when he comes in range
• Loves to be kissed and hugged
• Loves to grab Mom's glasses and rip them off her face
• Does not like to be left alone
• Likes to change activities about every 15 minutes
• Very "spastic" -- splashes in the tub like a mad man, hits things, slaps at things, moves his exersaucer across the floor
• Taking three naps a day of varying lengths; no longer crying when he goes down for naps
• Sleeping from about 7:30pm until 6:00am every night
• Ready to move into a big-boy car seat any day -- it's been ordered -- finally
• Starting to discover Scrubs -- will grab him if he is within reach
