Seven Months

Theo spent his seven-month birthday catching up with family and friends in Massachusetts. Following are pictures from our day at Kate and Chloe's.

Look how far Theo's ear can stretch.

Note how especially drooley Theo is in these pictures. He cut his first tooth the day after these were taken, and his second the day after that!

Theo at seven months . . .

Favorite Pastimes: Trying to crawl. He is wiggling all over the place but has not quite mastered a crawl. He does get up on all fours, and moves his legs but he has not figured out what to do with his arms and hands. Chewing on Little People.

Currently Reading: Not much. He might listen to two pages and then focuses on trying to catch and eat the book. At bedtime we "read" 'Max's Snowsuit' and 'A Magical Day with Matisse'

Currently Singing: 'Sing a Song,' 'When Irish Eyes are Smiling,' 'The Noble Duke of York.' Well, he is listening and we are singing. But Theo does sing along to the radio. Just 'ba ba ba' but he seems to enjoy it.

Quirkiest Trait: Hmmmmm. I must consult with Jonathan on this.

Laughs at: Pretending to gobble Theo's hands makes him laugh uncontrollably. He also always laughs when Gus says "Tra bum ba" and when we dance around the kitchen.
