7 Months of Dayton

Dayton is an easy, laid-back baby boy at 7 months old. He is very happy and laughs a ton! He loves to roll around and grab toys and is super content to do this for a solid hour while I fold clothes or do another chore with him in the room. He is always well-behaved in the nursery at church and with Ashlee, our babysitter, which makes me feel much more at ease thinking of putting him in Mother's Day Out two days a week starting August 27th! He'll be 8 months at that point!

This month he learned to…

sit up great unsupported! *my favorite accomplishment so far

Firsts:

4th of July!

Fireworks!

First time to meet Memaw Horton - his 93-year-old great, great grandmother!

Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-fil-A!

His favorite things this month:

momma, no doubt ;)

exersaucer

toys!

Soothie paci

Sawyer

Things he hates this month:

Ear infections! Poor kid can't catch a break from those darn things!

sometimes he hates when we first put him in the car seat

His sizes this month:

6-9 months

Size 3 diapers - he & Sawyer wear the same size - how funny is that!?

New places he has been this month:

Cotton Patch Cafe

ASI to watch Sawyer's gymnastics

Important events this month:

For his first 4th of July we went to my Momma Sheila's and swam, fished, pet the horses, and had homemade ice-cream! That night we went to Harry Meyers Park in Rockwall to watch the fireworks! It was a great day!
