7 Months Old


Jackson actually lost a little bit of weight this month—down from 20.5 to 20.15. We attribute the loss to endless kicking in the bathtub, kicking on the changing table, kicking in his crib, sitting up, rolling over, and dancing. Not quite crawling, but he is sure working those muscles, and apparently his extra workouts are showing up on the scale. 

This month started rough with teething. We aren’t fans of teething (or at least not the part that caused Jackson to stop sleeping through the night for a while), but his two little teeth are sure cute. And sharp.

He is still a fan of sucking his thumb, which is awesome for self-soothing. And adorable. Not so adorable? His attachment to my hair—some kids love a particular blanket, Jackson loves my hair. We are working on that.

Oooh, I was a hair baby. Totally. I still do the same weird thing I did when I was a baby and I don't even realize it until Jeff points it out or I stop and realize it. The downside was that my mom said she would get headaches.
