Lewis at 7 months.

i cant believe my baby is 7 months. i dont even think i can call him a baby anymore. he is growing up faster than i would like. last time i updated he was still loving his bouncer & swing. those have long been put in storage. we have upgraded to a walker & he loves to sit up & crawl. yes crawl. he isnt fast yet but he can get around pretty good. so he no longer wants to just sit still in my arms & be held. he is sooo sooo active. i have a feeling he is going to keep me very busy once he starts walking.
he looks like a big boy in this pic.

last week lewis was really fussy & was running a fever. i was soo afraid he was getting the flu so we took him into the drs just too be safe. while we were in the waiting room i was soo paranoid he was going to catch something from one of the other kids. he is soo happy & smiley that other kids want to play with him & touch him. so i was pretty rude when the kids came over to us. i was shocked that the parents would even let the kid come near us since he was sick. ugh. i hate going to the drs. anyway the dr checked him out & he didnt have a virus so i came to the conclusion that he was just teething. and sure enough 2 days later his teeth are starting to show & i can feel them when he chews on my finger. thank goodness it wasnt anything serious.

here we are at the drs. i have major sacks under my eyes. probably from the fact that lewis was so fussy i had like 4 hours of sleep the past couple days. he looks happy as always.


lewis also loves to stand. i always hold him while he stands against stuff & he loves it. the other night i put him to bed then i went in to check on him & he was standing up holding onto the railing. so apparently he can pull himself up. what next?
