I See You!

Now we catch him pulling up when he's supposed to be sleeping...

The Depot

Daddy and his little helper.

Turkey

Raleigh tried turkey for the first time today. He didn't seem to care for it much. Maybe it will be better as leftovers...

Parade

Our turkey watching the parade.

7 Months Old

Raleigh turned 7 months old on Saturday. This month he started solids, got two teeth (two weeks ago) and his first ear infection (last Wednesday). Erik stayed home with Raleigh Thursday and Friday.

Raleigh had one stuffy nose after another since starting daycare, which undid some of our sleep training. Early this month, we renewed our efforts and gave Raleigh a consistent bedtime and routine, and he falls asleep on his own again!

Raleigh is also almost crawling. After rocking for a week or two, he started to "military crawl" (the day after he saw his second cousin crawl). He also started making "Indian noises" by putting his hand over his mouth while he makes vowel sounds.

Crawling Practice

I guess it's hard to take a nap when all you can think about is crawling...

It breaks our hearts.  He's getting so close, though.  In fact, the ladies at daycare said he scooted forward a little today.  Good job, Raleigh!

Raleigh Coaster

We took Raleigh out using the big seat for the stroller. He kept his hands on the guardrail the whole time he was awake.

Disappearing Act

Something under the bed appears to have Raleigh by the ankles!
