7 Months Old

Luke is 7 months old! Many new developments in such a short time. He now can officially clap (although he actually started at 6 months, but since I was the only one to see it, and everyone gave me a hard time since only the mother saw it I am only mentioning it now,) and crawl, and he got his first tooth on the bottom left.

We also took him to the ENT and the doctor recommends tubes. He has fluid in his ear that isn't going away. He also said that since the fluid can cause discomfort we shouldn't try any sleep training like cry it out until that is resolved. So......Luke isn't sleeping well, still up every 3 hours at least. I am going to get a second opinion regarding the tubes, this doctor just seemed a little too nonchalant about putting tubes into a 7 month old for my taste.


Now back to the crawling, so he isn't in full on sprint mode yet, but in the last couple of days he went from mainly crawling backwards, and always ending up under the couch, see pic, to being able to make forward progress. Hunter thinks it is cute now, but he is already tired of Luke stealing his trains from the track and messing with his things!

Luke is still a very happy content little guy....yeah!
