Dear London,
Today you are 7 months old! This month was such a big month for your development. Not only did you start crawling this past month, you are now able to stand up while holding onto something. You also had several other "firsts" this month, including sitting in a highchair at a restaurant, finger painting, AND getting your 1st tooth! You now have two little pearly whites in that adorable smile of yours ;)
Your bond with your big brother continues to grow each day, as I see the two of you interacting more and more. Just last week, we were on our way to Target, and the two of you were giggling together in the backseat. That melted Mommy's heart! I have seen a big improvement with Noah's willingness to share his toys with you, including his beloved die cast cars. In fact, the first time you crawled forward, you were going after one of his favorite cars ;)
As I mentioned earlier, you started crawling this month! After several weeks of scooting backwards, you started crawling forward right at 6.5 months! It took about a week or so of a combined army crawl + wobbly hand/knee crawl for you to take off flying across the room. Now, you are crawling EVERYWHERE and love getting into all of Noah's toys.
We have squeezed in quite a few fun activities during the past few weeks, including a visit to the zoo, road trip to Charlotte, and a few fun play dates with our neighborhood friends. We are looking forward to Halloween at the end of this month, and as you can see from the photo below, you and Noah are dressing up as Minnie and Mickey! :)
It's been quite a fun month for us here at the Schmitt house, and life with a crawling baby is certainly anything but boring these days! ;)
Until next time, here are some of my favorite photos from this past month.
Those sweet cheeks (your 1st time in the highchair)!

I
don't have any current weight/height stats for you (your next check up
is at 9 months). You are still wearing size 6 months and beginning to transition into 9 months.
I love you,
Mommy
