7 months old...

The boys turned 7 months old a few days ago. It is so amazing how quickly time goes by! We have been busy this month as we are remodeling one of our bathrooms, so pictures are not currently available, but we wanted to let all of you know how we are doing. Joshua continues to refuse to roll over completely onto his stomach, but will go from side to side over and over again. Caleb on the other hand is all over the place in his crib at night and we never know how we will find him in the morning! He seems to prefer sleeping on his stomach, as that is often his position when we come in to get him. Joshua can sit up on his own for 10-15 seconds at a time and then usually gets too excited about something and over he goes! Caleb is a little too active to have that sort of control yet, but he is working on it. Joshua has also perfected the art of passing the ball from one hand to the other as he is playing. We made a quick stop in the doctor's office yesterday for flu shots and weighed the boys with their clothes on. Here are their approximate weights and lengths:

Caleb: 15 lbs 5 3/4 oz, about 27 inches long
Joshua 17 lbs 7 3/4 oz, about 27 1/2 inches long

They seem to be growing well! They have also both mastered the art of eating rice cereal at this point, so we are venturing into new foods. (I am waiting to start each new food at the same time with both of them to make it easier to keep track.) I am attempting to make our own baby food as much as I can and we are starting with peas! We will try to take some pictures of this and future new tastes to come. We continue to be so thankful for the boys and look forward to seeing what they will do in the next month!
