Magnus is 7 Months Old!

Karen here.

On June 1, Magnus turned 7 months old.

He's now a very busy boy. He's mastered sitting up and is still creeping to get around. He just never seems to sit still!

Never In One Spot

He's managed to get into a few predicaments that he needs help getting out of. Mostly when he traverses backwards. Or when he tries to sit up where there is a barrier.

Stuck

Plus, he is oh so curious about EVERYTHING! If it's at his level or in his domain, he scopes it out.

Pulling Everything Out of the Laundry Basket

Everything still goes in the mouth of course. But he's always looking for something new to play with. He gets this look on his face like, "been there, done that" when you try to offer him his very familiar toys. So each late afternoon in the witching hour before bed, I usually give him a new kitchen utensil to gum. And speaking of gums, he just got his first tooth. No picture to share though (sorry - it has barely crested the surface). :)

At his 6 month check up, he was a few days shy of 7 months, a result of our later than planned return to Toronto. But I am happy to report he is still huge and in excellent health (he can only wear 12 month clothes now). However, he only gained 2 pounds in the last 2.5 months. He's lost a bit of the chubbiness, which is great cuz he was getting like the marshmallow man. This kid can eat!
