Luke is 7 months old!

Our sweet Luke is now 7 months old! He continues to be such a joy and is growing up way too fast. Big news: tooth number 1 is on the way! Both of our sons are teething at the same time, actually. Daniel recently lost two more teeth! :) 

In the last month, Luke has become a lot more active, looking around and trying to grab and reach out at everything -- and put it in his mouth! He is getting stronger while sitting, but still tumbles. He has started turning in his crib and sleeps on his tummy sometimes. When we go to pick him up after we wakes up, he's often doing push-ups and greets us with a big smile! He can scoot a little when on his tummy... I think we are only a few weeks away from crawling.  Most days, especially when he is at the day care (which, thank God, we are so happy with!), he takes 3 naps a day (two shorter ones there, and one long one when he gets home before dinner). Today at home  he had two long naps only, so maybe he is starting to transition... He is now having 3 meals a day and has started having whole milk yogurt in addition to all the vegetables, fruits and chicken that he has been eating. He is a great eater since he hasn't refused any food we have offered. Oh, and another big recent development is that he has started to make consonant sounds: his favorite right now is "ne, ne, na, na", but has also said: "da, da, ba, ba, ra, ra, la, la!" He is indeed very vocal! And he loves it when we sing to him or make funny sounds.

 

Enjoy the photos of our sweet boys! 

You can just about see his first tooth coming out in this photo!

Big brother happy to participate in the photo-shoot!

Just LOVE seeing them together!

Luke is very well protected: Bumble Bee Transformer, Iron Man and Batman!

Luke was wondering, who is that?!
