Ben at 7 Months

Benjamin is upright and on the move.

This month, Ben has mastered sitting and has begun to scooch his way around the house. He can army crawl anywhere. Still a lightweight, he's at least on the growth chart and is "very proportionate" according to his doctor.

Ben is a sweetheart and an easy baby. This month we did have a scare that he might have psoriasis, but after a little bit of hydrocortisone and Cetaphil baths, that seems unlikely. He's talking more...I've even heard him say 'mamamamama' and 'dadadadada.' And this boy loves to eat. The only food that it seems like he might not like is apple. And he's graduated to the highchair from the Bumbo.

Ben and Rosemary get along very well. She cracks him up.

Here he is at 7 months on February 2.
