Grayden Robert,

You turned 7 months old on Saturday!

We said our final goodbyes to your Great Grandma W at her funeral and burial in the afternoon, you did super good. At night we celebrated your 7 month birthday by doing a little shopping and having dinner at Applebee’s.

Here’s what you’ve been up to:
*You have been crawling like crazy and get faster and faster everyday! It’s so much fun to watch you explore and learn.


*You pull yourself up to stand on everything!




*You can wave and give kisses and even ‘give five’ when we’re lucky!

*Mommy gave you your first haircut.



*You wear mostly 6 month clothes and size 2-3 diapers but once this pack is used up you’ll be into size 3’s!

*You weigh 19 lbs.

*You eat 5 bottles a day and love your baby food that mommy makes you….you eat like such a big boy!

*You started drinking from a sippy cup this month but prefer your bottle.


*You sleep from 9:30 pm-8:30 am and usually get up at 3:30 for your paci and 5:00 for a bottle but you always fall right back asleep.

*You (usually) take a 1.5 hour morning nap and a 2 hour afternoon nap and sometimes another 30 minute cat nap after dinner.

*You are such a good boy, you hardly ever cry and when you do its because you are either hungry or tired.

*You don’t have any teeth yet but we think they’re coming soon

*You met Santa and sat on his lap, you were fascinated with him!

*We celebrated your first thanksgiving which was so special for us, we are so thankful to have you in our lives, Grayden.


We love you so much and look forward to another great month with you!
Love, Mommy and Daddy!

AWW! He's so darling! Do you have any tips on cutting kiddo hair? My toddler does not sit still! I end up doing a total hack job and having to work on it over the course of several days!

I haven't commented before but just saw that your boy has the same middle name as mine. My son is Johan Robert. Robert was my grandpa, who was a high school English and German teacher who loved books and learning. I bet Grayden is named for someone just as great.
