Clothing Size: We're definitely out of all of the 3 month & 3 to 6 month clothing. But I see him being in 6 month clothing for awhile longer. All of his 6 month onesies are still pretty bunchy and he still has plenty of room to grow.
Feeding: We're still dealing with distraction while nursing, but I'm getting better at combatting it. I know last month I said we were probably going to wait until 8-9 months to start solids regularly, but around a week ago, he really started to show signs of interest in solids. So we tried some peas. He didn't seem to be a big fan of the taste {haha}, but he was a huge fan of the whole eating process and the overall experience of eating food. He had such a blast that for the past week we've been feeding him solids once a day. Only about a tablespoon though, just enough for him to get the experience without taking away any of the nutrition he gets from breast milk.
Sleeping: Not much has changed in this category. He's still a really good sleeper at night, but naps during the day are a totally different story. We call it a good day if we can get him down successfully for one really good nap. That doesn't happen every day though.
Milestones: He has 2 teeth that have popped through the gummies! Both of the bottom front teeth are growing in. Also, he's right on the verge of crawling. He can get to his hands and knees and can hold himself for awhile and he's really mastered going from laying on his back, rolling to his tummy, pushing to his hands and knees or hands and feet, and pushing back to sit up! Definitely one proud mama here!

Favorite Moments
I feel awful that I really didn't take many pictures this month, but part of it is that Maxwell is in no mood to be sitting still lately. So, there've been more videos this month than still shots.
Thoughts on the seventh month
You've changed so much this past month. At the beginning of your seventh month, you were just starting to show the signs that you were almost mobile. Now, it's just around the corner and I'm waiting for you to crawl any minute! In the past week you've mastered going from laying on your back, rolling to your tummy, pushing to your hands and knees, and pushing to sit on your bottom. You do this funny "inchworm" crawl where you tuck both feet under you and slide forward on your belly. I can't leave you out of sight anymore because you sure can move! You're even pulling yourself up on anything you can find so that you can stand. Your favorite way to move is to hold our hands and walk. You've even stood for a few seconds by yourself! You hit another big milestone this month too, you now have two little toothies! They popped through your gums within 5 days of one another!
