Tillman "turned" seven months yesterday. I sure wish I had better photography skills because these photos just can't capture his personality. He's pretty startled by the flash, so most of his expression pictured are a result that.
This month, he certainly has become more "mobile." No he's not walk or crawling, but he is starting to bang his head more by just being a little "weeble wobble." Sitting up has been the name of the game this month. He has gone from leaning over his feet and "flinging" backwards to (now) sitting straight-backed and trying to keep himself upright. I think he enjoys sitting up and "exploring" the world from this angle. He love to grab for his toys. Of course, we've been trying to challenge him by putting toys right outside of his reach which this determined little guy will get the toy and put straight in his mouth. However, he generally does a face plant when grabbing.
He is also working on rolling from his back to his stomach. He gets on his side a lot, but doesn't know how to get his arms situated to make the move. He has done it at least once because Sunday night he flipped himself right out of the swing (I know, I'm a bad parent for not strapping him in)....You know I have a story about that one...here it goes. Tillman was sleeping in his swing (swing wasn't on) and I heard him cry for 15 seconds...nothing big, but like he had a bad dream or something. I went to check on him, and he wasn't there. The swing was empty and it was barley moving. I FREAKED OUT! When I got close to the swing, I saw Tillman asleep on the floor! He was in a sleep sack, so from afar, he looked like another blanket (thank God we keep blankets under the swing, so his fall was quit plush). I picked the little guy up, and he was fast asleep!

Tillman is also giving his two new teeth a work out! He's eating food twice a day (soon to be three times). He's had squash, zucchini, mango, pears, green beans, apples, banana, carrots, avocado, oatmeal, rice cereal, and prunes so far. I think he's going to try some cabbage next (read that on a blog that it was a safe food).

Since this post talks about swings, here's a picture of Tillman's crib at daycare. He sleeps in his crib in the swing for his naps. If it wasn't for this set up, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't nap at all. However, Tillman is learning to nap without the swing as of this week! Huge transition for Tiny T!
***blogger is giving me a headache...sorry for the picture placement. Just can't seem to fix it.

Go "T" go. Easter will be a blast with you Lance. We might be able to get a good picture of the two of you sitting up. Logan just started sitting up and keeping his balance. No teeth yet!!! I can't wait to see "T" next weekend. It will be so much fun.
See you Easter! Looking forward to it.
