7.5 Months

Our sweet little (not so much...he's over 20lbs!) Noah is 7.5 months old now!  7.5 months is a random age for a blog post, but it's been a while since I've written about Noah and I took some cute pictures of him over the weekend, so there...that's why you're reading this.  :)

Noah has really gotten himself into an awesome schedule and that makes me so happy.  I think that's the hardest part of having a 3rd...trying to somehow and very quickly get them on a schedule that works with me and the other munchkins.  We've finally gotten to that point.  He shares a room with Hudson, so that's been a little challenging, but we've worked it out finally.  Noah now takes just 2 naps a day, eats 4, 7-8oz bottles and 3 solid meals a day.  (No wonder he's 20lbs!)  He sleeps about 12.5 to 13 hours a night, and goes to bed at 6pm!  That makes the bath/bed routine for the other two a little more challenging...just because we live in a townhome and quarters are pretty close upstairs.  :)  He sits up now, but not without occasionally toppling over, rocks back and forth on all fours, and holds a push-up position pretty darn well.  I think crawling is in his near future - yay!  His babbling has stepped up a couple of notches and occasionally says "mama," not that he has any idea what he's saying!  His vocabulary really resembles the wording of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance.  :)  Hmmm...we probably play that song a little too much.  He's still so mild-mannered and low-mainteance...lets hope it stays that way!  That's the great thing about having a third child, he is just so content to sit and watch the other two monsters run around!
