Baby Bear @ 7 months




Oh I am just the proudest momma bear right now!! My little baby bear is growing up oh so fast. As soon as he turned 7 months old, he began to hit milestone after milestone. Boom! boom! boom! To think how proud I was of him when at 4 months old he was sitting up all by himself, I am just beside myself now.

It all started a few weeks when my little baby bear got his very first tooth, followed a few days later by his second tooth! I was expecting him to be a Grouchy Gus and be up all night, however he took it like a little champ. I have to admit he was a little crabby and did wake up a few times at night for some Tempra, but other than that he was as good as pie.

Last week he surprised me again. Baby bear will usually pull himself up by holding onto my index fingers. He will then let go, fall on his bum and do it all over again. Last week he let go and I thought he would just fall on his bum like he normally does, but not this time. Oh no, this time he stood there laughing. Standing up all by his little ol' self, I couldn't believe it. It only lasted about 5 seconds, I was sure it was just a fluke, but he keeps on doing it. He won't stop! he just loves it. Now he can stand without falling for about 20 seconds. I'm still waiting for him to take a step, I'm sure it will be sometime before he's walking, he hasn't even started crawling yet. Mind you this afternoon baby bear was rolling around on the floor and found himself on his tummy. I watched while he was trying to get a toy which was out of reach. He got himself on his hands and knees and took two crawling steps! (don't know what you would call that, creeps??) I couldn't believe my eyes!! I think I may have shed a tear. I am so proud of him!!

I think it may be time to baby proof the house.

  5. Great :) When you working within blogger, there should be a section to add links to other sites. I'm sorry I'm not really sure - I don't use blogger. :)

  7. My little man is 14 months and we have had 3 weeks of no more crawling and he gets himself everywhere. We had our first knee scrape outside but he is all boy and kept on walking with blood running down his leg. It is such a fun time watching them discover and learn new things.

  9. Terri: Good for your little guy!! I remember when my little nephews started walking it was so cute to watch them toddle around everywhere. Can't wait until my baby bear masters walking :) He sounds like a rough and tumble boy, I think baby bear is going to be the same way.
