7 Months....

It is hard to believe that John David is already 7 months old.  He has changed so much over these past 7 months and is growing more and more into a little boy.  Over the last month he has adjusted to his new house in Brussels and is back to sleeping through the night and taking two good naps a day (most days).  He took his first ride on a train when we went to Brugge and is a seasoned traveler on the metro and tram lines of Brussels.  He still has a really good appetite and has started pureed meats, which are going to take sometime to get used to.  By far his biggest milestone was starting to crawl last week and now there is no stopping him.  He loves to get into everything: electrical cords, phones, remotes, nightlights, humidifiers, recycling (I think you get the idea).  Pretty much anything he isn't supposed to get into he is drawn to like he was laser guided.  We love to feed watch the ducks in the pond around the street and go for walks in the forest.  We now play in the bath as opposed to just tolerating it and loves to try to drink from the cup we use to rinse him like a bog boy.  We we go out to eat now he sits in a highchair instead of being held and plays with his toys.  One of his favorite games is dropping his toys on the floor and watching Mom or Dad pick them up, over and over again.  Just yesterday he received his first haircut from Mom and Dad.  It isn't the greatest but at least his hair is out of his eyes and his grandma will stop bugging his mother about it.  And finally we had our first play date this month.  First with Amanda and her daughter Julianna and then with Maren and her daughter Julia.  He already has a thing for the ladies it seems.  Below are a few recent pictures.
