Noah: Seven Months

 
 
 
Noah Adam:  At Seven Months...
 
7) You have two teeth.
6) You go to sleep around 7:30... eat around 5am... go back to sleep until 8:00.  That's my boy!
5) You LOVE your thumb, mum mums (baby crackers), your seahorse, and your fish mobile.
4) You eat 4-6 jars of baby food a day (OINK OINK)...and nurse 6 times a day.
3) You still get a bath in your whale tub b/c you refuse to sit up on your own.
2) You think Gabe and Zoey are hilarious.
1) You smile with your eyes and it totally melts your mama's heart!

A typical summer day...

On this particular HOT summer day, Gabe and I headed outside for some Mommy & Gabe time, while baby Noah napped.  Gabe helped me paint a shelf for baby Noah's room and we had a great time decorating the driveway with sidewalk chalk!  Gabe also enjoyed coloring Daddy's 2x4's and had a great time loading up his loader with the chalk. 

We also enjoyed watching all of the construction going on around us!  There are a lot of houses being build in our neighborhood... which means lots of backhoe loaders, concrete trucks, and bulldozers! 
Gabe is just fascinated by all of the construction workers... he is always waving to them and trying to talk to them...he LOVES when they wave back to him or say hello.  He runs over to me and says proudly, "Mommy that man waved to me!"


 
 
 
 
 

On this particular day, I noticed at one point, that Gabe was looking glum. He was sitting in the grass, with his head down, and a pouty look on his face. (And anyone that knows Gabe, knows this is waaaaay out of character for him!) When I asked him what was wrong, he said, "Mommy, I'm very angry... because I want to help the men build!"

It broke my heart... I snuggled him up... gave him a delicious popsicle... and we headed inside to build houses with legos!
