Maverick is 7 months!

Little Mav is already 7 months old...and we've had a big month!  Here are some pictures of him throughout the month that I didn't get a chance to post.



How can you resist pictures of kiddos in hoodie towels? :)

...especially scrunchy face, smiley ones!


The jury is still out on how much he enjoys his Johnny Jump-up, but he looks happy here!


Look out world, here I come!  Maverick officially started crawling on Augst 19th (6 1/2ish months).  He was a little 'bambi' like at first, but he's really moving confidently now!


Things are so much more fun now that I can move from crawling to sitting and back to crawling.  I entertain myself pretty well these days, but Mom & Dad have to keep a close eye on what I am putting in my mouth!


Mommy's wildcat

After Maverick's 6 month check-up, they assured us that the little man should be able to make it 10-12 hours at night without eating.  We started letting his cry it out a bit and it seems to have worked.  He still sometimes wakes at 10 hours for a feed, but has also slept the entire 12 hour night once or twice without waking.  We are both enjoying our extra ZZZZZZs!

I love these pictures.  He was having a great time crawling around in the cool grass one August evening in our friend's backyard.


Last weekend, we participated in the Head for the Cure 5k in honor of our little neighbor friend, Lucy who is battling brain cancer.  Mitchell is helping us say a little prayer for Lucy before the race began.  Maverick was a happy rider!


 Maverick is a big fan of bathtime. I have both boys in the same tub together now and Maverick loves watching Mitchell splash around...



...but he's a little protective of his toys (toothbrush!)! Ha!



Maverick is a good little eater.  He has tried squash, sweet potatoes, carrots, green beans & peas, all with success!  We'll start moving onto fruits soon.
