lucky seven

everyone always said your kids grow up too fast.  all of the sudden i'm realizing this!  today, liam is SEVEN months.  why does that sound so much older than six?

though i can't slow the time down, i do know at least 7 reasons why i am the luckiest mama to have him:

#1 - he's always ready to smile at anyone and everyone.  completely lights up a room.
#2 - i guess he's not growing up TOO fast since he's not getting any teeth, nor is he becoming mobile (which is nice for me).
#3 - he'll eat anything and everything i give him.  so grateful he's a good eater.
#4 - he loves his dog, cache and laughs hard when we say, "bang" to get him to lay down
#5 - he's a snuggler and loves to be rocked to sleep as he nuzzles my neck.  sweetest. thing. ever.
#6 - he has started laughing as soon as i get him naked for bath or a change of clothes.  adorable.  his chubbiness is the best thing in the whole world and you can't resist tickling him.
#7 - when i pick him up after i've been at work he gives me a huge smile and touches my face. it melts me.

..i could go on all day.
love you, yum-yum

look at that face

bathtime with cousin emerett was not his favorite..
usually it's his relaxing time and he is as happy as a clam.  but with emerett it was a little....rowdy!  :)
but look at that face - cutest sad face i've ever seen!
