7 months, OMG

At 5 months we took EJ to Madrid, Guadalajara and Girona in spain, we ended up spending a couple of days driving (long story) but he was fine. The great thing was we spent the time with is spanish grandparents and he really has becone an international travaller.
Also we started him on fruits and oats instead of just milk.
At 6 months he started on three meals a day, with milk of course.

and 7 months, he has starting to sit by himself and is really thinking hard about crawling, He can kinda of crawl backwards and get anywhere he wants by a cobination of this and rolling over. Right now he puts himself on all fours and kind of rocks forward and backwards. Also on his 7 month birthday he started saying 'daddy' but since then he seems to be on strike so thats something to work on. Also he has given up on the boob and is really eating food
We've bought a bike seat for him but haven't tried it yet and also aquired a car for Almu so she has more independance when i'm out bringing the bacon in.
Oh and thanks to Mary we had our first night out together since Mr Cookie arrived (and in fact some time before).
Right now the cutest thing he does is to kind of kiss your nose if he gets close enough, this involves your entire nose becoming envolped and being licked a little, its weird but then many things about babies are weird it seems.
