7 months

• You love food!  So much that you are starting to snub bottles.  You will still nurse fine, but would rather be offered solid food than a bottle any day.  You've tried several different types of baby food, and we've let you gum on things like apple cores and baby carrots as well as offering you little bits of egg, cheese, meats, bread, etc.  You love it all!
• You have finally figured out the bouncer and enjoy jumping up and down in it.
• You are a quieter baby, but happy and mellow.  Whereas baby Bennett smiled readily at anyone who looked his way, you tend to clam up with strangers or even extended family members and just stare and absorb.  If only they could see how you are at home with your family!  You are always happily rolling around, cooing and growling and laughing.
• You're close to crawling.  Right now you spend a lot of time flipping forward from sitting up to putting your weigh on your hands.  Once you figure out how to push up off your knees you'll be crawling in no time.
• You love your Bennett, no one can reliably make you smile the way he can!  I'm frequently telling him to play more gently, but you love his silly games and wrestling.  We're always amazed at the nonsense kind of games he makes up to play with you that you just absolutely respond to!
