happy 7 months mccoy!























i love his little dimples




































































It is so hard to believe this little guy is 7 months old.

He is the sweetest little thing. truly. a blessing.

here are some things he's been up to.

crawling..EVERYWHERE

pulls up on everything and tries to bounce out of his crib (it has been on the lowest level)

will stand holding on with one hand

is trying really hard to wave

eats 8 ounces every 4 hours now. still sometimes doesn't eat it all and will only eat around 1/2
the spitting up has improved big time. zantac has helped a lot.
he still HATES food. kinda likes pears (like 2 bites) but will close his mouth as tight as he can or spit out anything else that comes near.
he does LOVE puffs, little dried apple bites and yogurt bites. anything he can pick up with his hands. he will try to grab anything you are eating just hates his own stuff.
still no teeth. he drools pretty good and chews on stuff so maybe it is coming? i have thought that for a long time though!
sleep...ohhh sleep..will i ever sleep again?? :) oh well, i wouldn't trade it.
he gets up around midnight and then 3-4ish or 5ish. he is still really hard to calm down at these times. he is eating a bottle then but we are trying our hardest to take this out. we have tried a few different techniques...just need to be consistent! :)
he fights naps too...it is hard for him to get comfy.
he is still in 3-6 m clothes...all of his 6-12 for fall are still so big on him!
in a 3 diaper but the 2's fit better
he is our little jockey! hahaha! juuust kidding mccoy!
he laughs at EVERYTHING...he loves to giggle at liza. liza loves to hold him and help me with keeping things away from him.
he gets so tickled that he always bows his head towards the ground. like he just cant stand it. it is so funny.
the kiddos are shipped off to springfield. i have to go to dallas for work so coco and cricket to the rescue! :) thanks AGAIN guys! :) we love ya and owe ya.

He is soooo CUTE! Great pics Kate!Reed had trouble sleeping too but after we started baby food and he was consistently eating it twice a day....he slept better! Does McCoy like fruit?

He has changed! Still a cutie. I can't believe he can still wear 3-6 month clothes. He looks way bigger than that!

The Springfield visit was lots of fun. The days were beautiful so we could be outside most of the time. We played at the park and saw the geese. We visited Nancy, Carter and Aven and had lunch. Carter and Liza had a great time. And we made pudding and jello. Liza loves to cook. But the highlight, as usual, was Baron. Liza went with me to pick him up from the doggie hotel and met the other dogs and the cat. Even McCoy loves Baron. Truly, Baron is the best dog. I really think McCoy was trying to say dog. Liza did say "What does supper look like" as she looked around the empty kitchen one evening. Thank goodness Cricket comes home for supper because that's who cooked!
How fortunate I am to be so close to Fayetteville. I love having Liza and McCoy here.

Love, Coco
