What!? I like prunes!
Love my Daddy!
Wow! Look at all these toys!
Sitting up playing like a big boy!

Hmmm, not so sure about this banana Daddy!
Let me try another bite!
Playing
I'm 7 months old today!!!
Seriously!? Does it get any cuter or sweeter than this!!!???
*Hollis has tried several veggies this month including carrots, squash, and green beans. I have yet to find a fruit or veggie he doesn't like! Maybe he will be my good eater!
*Is so entertained by his big brother, Clayton doesn't even have to do anything and he just chuckles at him.
*He is the biggest cuddler. He is such a sweet, sweet baby. He loves to grab your face and bring you close and will cuddle up on your chest. Such a doll baby!!!
*Can go from laying down to sitting all by himself!
*Isn't officially "crawling", but he is so very close. He moves all over the place, and he actually scooted himself forward by pushing off several times last night, so any minute now he will be crawling everywhere!
*Has a little elephant blanky baby he likes to cuddle with at night, he holds onto it with his left hand and pulls it close to his face and then he has to have that right thumb. He looks so dang cute and sweet sucking that thumb!
*Goes from sitting to laying position
*making all kinds of consonant vowel sounds...my personal favorite it "mamamamama", but he also says "bababababa", that one doesn't go with the actual object baba because he doesn't take one...he makes all kinds of other sounds, always just babbling and cooing away!
*Such a happy, laid back baby
*Big time Mommy's boy! Of course I love that ;)
*Can move objects from one hand to another
*Tried a real banana the other day...Daddy shared his :)
*Loves to be rocked and sang to
*For some reason he think that Dora the Explorer is hilarious. Clayton will be watching it, and Hollis just stares at the TV and belly laughs!
*Still in the stranger mode, if he isn't really familiar with someone and they try to talk to him or hold him he puckers up and starts screaming and looking for Mommy, Daddy, or someone familiar like Gi Gi
*Loves to be tickled especially loves you to get his tummy
*Puts everything in his mouth!
*Very proficient at sitting up now, hardly ever falls over
*Loves to eat his toes :)
*"Sings" himself to sleep
*Getting better about sleeping at night, for the most part only waking once or twice...but we still have some nights he wants to nurse all night
*If you hold his hands he can basically stand by himself. He has had strong legs and neck since birth
*Very nosy...doesn't want to miss anything. He is getting to the age that it takes a little longer to nurse because if he hears or see anything he has to stop and look around and check things out!
*Tried swinging him on the new swing set, but he is not into that at all yet!
He is just growing and changing so fast. He is seriously the sweetest, most laid back baby. We go all over town to the museum, zoo, library, etc. and he just goes with the flow. I know I say it every time, but he is just such a little blessing from above, and we are so blessed to have him in our lives. I love watching my boys together and they way that Hollis looks at Clayton is just precious. He already adores him at 7 months old, I know that they are going to be big buddies. We love watching him meet all of his milestones and seeing his personality just blossoming. We love our Hollis Man!!!
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm baby boy I have something much much nicer for your mouth than banana or thumb, be a good boy and let me see it in your mouth before you swallow
