Boaz at 7 months (a couple months ago!)

Boaz is 9 months old today!  So why does it say 7?  Because I haven't posted a monthly update since he was 6 months old!  I sure hope I can remember stuff about him when he was seven months...


I know that at seven months, you were starting to sit up, though not without the help of pillows piled around in case you fell over.  Sometimes you would fling yourself backwards and bang your head on the floor.  That was not very fun:(

You began soy formula when you were 6 months old, and at 7 months were completely weaned.  Within a week of you starting formula, your legs started getting chubby and you started gaining some weight.  Your mama just wasn't producing enough milk for you.

You are still allergic to dairy, which is why you are on soy formula.  I know it's not as healthy, but it's healthier than starving and healthier than having hives!

Over the course of 6 months, you steadily declined on the weight percentile measurements, but after getting formula, you slowly started to increase.  I think you were around average for height, below average for weight, and at 90 percentile for head circumference.  You've got a big head like Jordan:)

In addition to rice, oatmeal, and applesauce, you started eating squash and sweet potatoes.  Mommy made your food for you.

At about 7.5 months, you tried little baby puffs for the first time.  You didn't know what to do and I got a bazzillion some cute pictures of you "eating" them.  Mostly, you would grab up all you could in your little fists, but not understand how to get them into your mouth:)
