7

The little stinker turned 7 months old yesterday. He is getting so big...well it seems so, but he is only in the 10th percentile for weight. 75th for height though. He is a tall skinny boy. He still, for some reason, doesn't like to eat anything. The only way that I can get solid food to his tummy is to feed him while he is in his vibrator rocker chair so that if he tries to spit the food out gravity sends it right back into his mouth. One day he will learn to like new foods.

On a more exciting note, Markus is no longer toothless. His first tooth broke through January 20 :) He is getting to be so grown up. Some of his favorite things include:
~Bathtime
~Jumping
~Rolling over to his tummy (but then crying because he is stuck)
~Kicking his feet (sometime I wonder if he is getting calluses on his heels because he kicks so hard against the floor, but he doesn't seem to mind)
~Chewing on his tongue
~Babbling at Mommy or his toy, whichever seems to be paying more attention to him.

Hopefully we will be able to include meal time on his list next month. Only time will tell...
