Seven months!

Seven has always been a favourite number of mine, which I think is the same story for most people. However, contrary to most people who seem to say, “It’s just such a great number” or something equally lame, I actually have a basis for it being my favourite! “G” is the seventh letter of the alphabet! Yes, my reason is also pretty lame, but what better one have you got?

*ahem*

Oscar hit the seven month mark over the Easter weekend!

In comparison to his six month photo, he doesn’t appear to have grown up all that much this month, but he definitely looks a bit stockier. This is actually really great news for us, since he’s never been much of a fan of eating – in the liquid form that is; solids definitely pique his interest a bit more.

Actually, since our Melbourne trip, he’s gone right off most of his solid foods too – though he’s happy to eat banana porridge until the cows come home. To make it a bit more nutritious, and to ensure he’s still eating some vegetables Kristy tries to sneak various add-in’s into it, which for the most part is successful… but she got totally busted a few days ago when she attempted to infuse some peas. I let him off the hook for that one though; Daddy doesn’t like peas, either.

By far though, Oscar’s best new trick this month is sitting! I was almost worried that he’d never sit, as every time we tried to get him sit him up, he’d push backwards in an attempt to stand instead. But lo and behold, one day, out of nowhere, he pulled out a perfect sit, and stayed that way happily for quite some time. Bam!

Ah, so studious!
