March 2011: 7 Months Old

7 Months Old: March 2011

Zachary started his first swim class, and loves it! He loves splashing in the water and swimming with the other babies. He's becoming a big flirt. Zachary finally said "Mama," which is so great to hear! This month he tried corn, apricots, spinach, white potatoes, tomato, acorn squash, and chicken (his first meat). He's trying to pick up Cheerios and sweet potato puffs, but hasn't put them in his mouth yet. Zachary loves the swings and the slide at the playground, especially when Daddy lets him go down the slide very fast. We've finally been able to go for wagon rides outside, which is our new afer work/daycare activity. Zachary had his first babysitter (Gramma) while Mommy & Daddy went on a long overdue date... he didn't do so well, but we had a great time. We brought him home a few treats, one of which is a ball, and taught him to play catch rolling it back and forth. Zachary can go from sitting to a crawling position, and is doing his own type of crawl. He's rocking on his hands and knees but hasn't quite figured out how to move that way yet. Zachary went to church for the first time with Mommy and did a great job sitting with Gramma throughout the service.


Our baby is getting so big!


He likes to go through his toys one by one, and place them all on his lap!




Uncle Michael's funny beard!



Zachary loves real bananas, and it's good for teething.



Playtime with his toys.



Our first trip to the playground. What a great afternoon!
































Our first wagon ride outside. It was a little chilly, but much better than the wagon rides inside the house!











Zachary was telling a story while I took the picture.

Swim lessons! Since only one parent can go in the pool, we take turns each week.


A quick kiss for Mama before jumping in!





Father & Son



Zachary's new sunglasses... he didn't know what to do when we put them on his face!



Zachary loves playing with the baby in the mirror! They tell each other stories and give kisses.





What a cutie!

Our little man.
