7 Months

Such a big boy!

On January 29th, our baby boy turned 7 months! It's hard to believe we have made it that far already... in some ways it seems like yesterday we had just brought him home from the hospital.  However in other ways, it seems like he has been in our lives forever!  Brayden is turning into such a funny little guy, who loves to laugh, blow rasberries and snuggle with mommy and daddy! Two weeks ago he started swimming lessons and has a blast playing in the water. 

Lately he has also been eating a lot more solid foods, which we love making homemade baby food for him.  After doing a taste test to compare to a jar of food, he MUCH prefers homemade as well!  We are hoping to set him up well with eating habits by exposing him to a wide variety of foods from an early age.  So far these are the foods he eats (in addition to breast milk): brown rice, oatmeal, carrot, peas, green beans, spinach, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, asparagus, avocado, prunes, bananas, apples, mangos and pears.
