Mr. Skills
Soren is 7.5 months old. 7 months must be the threshold at which a baby's brain becomes spongy and absorbent. You can literally sit with him and watch him learn from minute to minute. He'll watch you and ape your physical gestures (i.e., the 'high five'). But he'll also listen to himself talk and experiment with the expression through modulation, volume, etc. He's also got a whole new passel of looks and facial expressions. The other new development is his obvious craving for some autonomy via mobility. He sits up and can move himself around by rolling; but he clearly wants to crawl and he REALLY wants to stand up and walk. He's even pulled himself up to a standing position by holding on to me. It's amazing how quickly all this is happening. Slow down, boy!

Approaching 7 months
Once again I've neglected my duties as the bard of the House of Soren. There's much to relate. Soren will be seven months old next week and he's doing lots of age appropriate things. We started him on rice cereal about a month ago and, after somewhat of a tentative initial reaction, he's taken to the human foods. Recent sucesses include squash and peas. Green beans suck. Milk is still the favorite. Soren is now sitting up on his own. He can't crawl but kinda propels himself via rolls and 'fits'. We're not encouraging walking or crawling as we've spent a total of zero hours kidproofing the house.
