7 month milestones and Thanksgiving!

So last week, my little baby boy turned 7 months old!  He is still the happiest baby, loves attention from us and strangers, and loves to eat!  His favorite foods so far are mixed vegetables and summer vegetables. Here are his current milestones:

• sits without support! 
• drags objects towards himself- he's learned to pull the blanket to get the toy closer
• jabbers- he's recently started being very vocal while sitting in his high chair while we get his meal ready.  Basically he says AAAHHHH really loud until we start talking back to him, then he laughs!
• loves to stand- with help- and bounce on his legs
• bangs objects together
• loves playing peek-a-boo
• he just cut his FIRST tooth! 
• he has started pushing up on this hands and knees and rocking! 

We celebrated Thanksgiving in Des Moines with Eric's family.  When we left Dallas on Wednesday morning it was about 70 degrees and when we arrived it was barely 30!  Brrrr.  Luckily we had prepared to bundle Caiden up.

Of course we had lots of good food!

Caiden even got to try some mashed potatoes, but he wasn't a fan!

So overall Caiden enjoyed his first thanksgiving!



We've got lots of fun stuff planned for the holiday season so stay posted to join in our holiday spirit!
