Happy 7 Months, Zachary!
Happy 7 months to my little prince!
I love you so much!
I love how you...
sleep with your little bum in the air, all curled up like a bug in a rug
stare up at me with those big eyes and long lashes - especially at night when I sing the lullabye song to you - in the dark - you and me lying on the big bed - your little face only inches from mine - so serious as you peer into my eyes and stare at my mouth
sometimes stick your fingers in my mouth as I'm singing, as if you're trying to catch the words in your hand (or perhaps your practicing to be a dentist as you yank on my bottom teeth. Regardless, I love it!)
belly laugh when I wiggle my hair, my fingers or my toes in your face; when I talk in a high, squeaky voice to you; when daddy's kisses your belly and toes, when daddy plays airplane with you; when daddy or I do anything silly
bounce up and down in my arms and smile and shriek when I sing the alphabet song (or any song for that matter, to include my attempts at rapping)
open your mouth like a baby bird for more baby food or cereal when you're hungry...sometimes grabbing the spoon out of my hand as you try to feed yourself...or touch the cereal and get it all over your fingers as I attempt to pry the spoon out of your hands - what a strong grip you have!
make loud raspberries and gargling noises and screams ... just because
yell out angrily when we're not paying attention to you - and then a big smile erupts on your face when we look at you
grin with your mouth closed at times - you look so mischievous
rub your eyes when you're tired and burrow your head into my neck while sucking your thumb as you begin to drift off to sleep
grab at everything, including my glasses, beer bottles, my hair, daddy's hair, daddy's foot, and yes, your wee wee
observe everything - nothing gets passed your line of vision
pull your bottle to your mouth when you're extremely hungry
jump up and down in my arms when we dance - squealing with delight
get excited to see me and daddy, and when when we pick you up, you give us bear hugs
roll, scoot, and move all around
sing and babble and coo
pull on the string of the Mother's Day balloon you and daddy bought me (which is still inflated after all this time) and bop the balloon up and down in your face, laughing
play in your exersaucer, touching and feeling every toy, inspecting every angle while babbling to yourself
laugh while you watch cartoons
smile every time i put the camera to your face
smile at videos and pictures of yourself
smile at everyone
fill me and daddy with so much love and bring us so much joy that we could cry happy tears every time we look at your angelic face.
I could go on and on and on with all the things you do that I love... because I love everything about you!
Happy 7 months, Zachary Adam Keel - you are truly the love of our lives!
