Jonathan is 7 Months Old!





Dear Jonathan,

          Another month has gone by so quickly!  Every day you are becoming more and more inquisitive and adventurous.  Your latest accomplishment is you newfound ability to scoot around on your belly.  You love being mobile!  I have to be careful where I set you down because you always seem to find something that you shouldn't be playing with! 
          Just a few short months ago, I used to be able to play games of peekabo with you and you would be so shocked and surprised to see me reappear again and again.  Now when I leave the room, not only do you know that I still exist, you scoot yourself into the next room to find me!  I am so surprised at how clever you are!
          You are a little fearless... Daddy throws you up higher and higher in the air and, although my heart stops in fear, you just laugh and scream as though you are having the time of your life.  Daddy loves spending time playing with you!
          You had another doctors appointment this month.  You finally weigh 12 pounds!  You are such a lightweight, but you love to eat anything with fruit in it.  Maybe if you stopped wriggling around so much you would put on a few more pounds! 
          As always, I love you so much and pray everyday that you will always have the energy you do now- and that I will have the energy to keep up with you!!

                                                                                Love,
                                                                                      Mommy
