Hunk is 7 Months Old

Hunk turned 7 months recently.



I love that he is growing and thriving in this crazy world,


but there is a bit of me that is not liking the fact that he is closer to 1 year than he is to being a newborn.



Thankfully he is still down with the cuddles.



Especially if he is tired.





 I just love this adorable little man.




 I'm pretty sure I've said this about him every monthly update, but I just can't help myself.



He has a terrific little personality. 

 He really is a pretty happy baby...



... especially if he is being held.


 But before I eat him up with a spoon, here are some fun Hunk facts...



This boy
-weighs in around 18 and 1/2 pounds
-wears a size 3 diaper (though I think I should move him to 4s)
-absolutely cannot fit into 0-3 month clothing (I only note this because I was at the grocery store when he had a BAD blowout and all I had for spare clothing was a 0-3 month onzie--it didn't even cover his tummy. I still can't believe I fit it on over his head).



-is babbling "da-da" all day long, among many other consonant sounds
-"talks" all the time
-gets stranger danger if I'm in the room and somebody else is holding him
-is sleeping much better--I should note that he only sleeps better at night. His naps leave much to be desired
-doesn't much care for food--stinnker!
-still loves his sisters


-seemed to enjoy watching the girls play soccer--he loves the motion--this was only when he wasn't sleeping in the carrier daddy had him in
-still eats mostly breast milk--he only needs a couple bottles of formula a week--and that's mostly because I can't keep a schedule well enough to always be available to pump when he needs me to. But I'm happy with all that he does get.
-got his picture taken in a shirt and tie with the Easter Bunny and his sisters
-enjoys playing on the floor much more
-still loves his jumper and entertainer
-he loves scratching his fingers back and forth over any surface
-all objects, once handled in both hands, go straight for his mouth
-has some red hair
-has skin that is clearing up very nicely, but will occasionally break out still
-goes to bed around 8:30 and wakes around 6
-is the best little snuggle bear I could ask for


Love you, my sweet!
