seven months

Where, oh where has the time gone? Simon is seven months old today. We finally had a chance to get to his six month appointment (yesterday), so here are some stats for ya:

Weight - 20 pounds 12 ounces - 75-90%
Height - 28 inches - above 90%

Simon is a very active little boy. It is hard to get him to sit still for anything, except a diaper change. I think he loves getting his diaper changed because I talk to him. It is like he knows he will get all the attention for the couple of minutes during his diaper change/getting dressed. Anyway, he still hasn't quite mastered sitting up on his own. He is too wiggly to sit still long enough to learn to balance... and since we have wood floors (with no rug) I don't dare leave him alone. Oh well, most of the time he is just happy to roll around the floor looking for anything he can get into.

Simon absolutely loves Miriam and shows his excitement when she walks into the room. She loves making him laugh. Simon is a very social baby. Anyone that pays him any attention will get a huge smile. I get a lot of comments on what a happy baby I have... and he is.
