Has it really been seven months (almost eight)?! Crewe's body and mind continue to grow like crazy. Here are a few highlights from the past two months:- The little guy is now sporting SIX teeth. All of them have come in within the past two months. Without the drooling, we'd have no idea that he was teething because he doesn't even complain. Two more teeth are set to breath through any day now.
- Crewe is learning to sit unsupported (see the photos above). Gravity wants to pull him to the right, but he's learning to balance. He also loves sitting in his bumbo.
- Baby food and cereal have become mildly interesting, which is a big step forward from the long not-interested-at-all phase. His cystic hygroma causes his tongue and base of tongue to swell so learning to eat with a spoon is a big deal. It takes 30+ minutes for him to make it through one container of baby food.
- Sleeping through the night is finally part of his regular routine (proof that prayers are answered!)
Crewe is such a happy, easy going baby. He can fall asleep anywhere and soothes himself by sucking his thumb. I have to make a conscious effort to hold him throughout the day because he just doesn't fuss or complain.
We are still not hearing sounds from the little man. We are looking for a speech therapist and feeding expert who can help him learn to make babbling positions with his mouth and tongue. I want so much to hear him laugh some day soon. He's got a great sense of humor and when he laughs his whole body bobs up and down.

Camille, he is adorable...seriously has it already been 7 months! It goes by fast....especially when you start to get a good nights rest. When you aren't sleeping it feels like FOREVER!
He is so darn cute! You can't beat that smile and the spirit he brings into a room.
Camille, he is such a beautiful baby. I LOVE his smile. So glad you can also get some sleep - finally! A well-rested mommy is a happy mommy. At least at our house :) Love you!
