Pa's Pumpkin Patch

I got a groupon for unlimited rides at Pa's Pumpkin patch and I have to say, it might be one of the best things I spent $15 on! James had so much fun on all the rides, while Davis was kindly slept in the ergo the whole time. It was so much fun and we even left with out a tantrum! He must have gotten his fill of all the fun.

Riding the coaster with his buddy Cash.

A natural on the back of a horse. Someday we will ride together.

6 (really 7) month photo shoot

My friend Sara Walk is an amazing photographer. She took James' 6 month pics (he was really 5.5 months) and I wanted her to take Davis' as well. I even put Davis in the same outfit that James was in to see the difference between the two boys. They definitely have their own look. Here are a few she took:

I love the squishy face he is making in the bottom-middle picture. Classic.

And a few more favorites

my boys have the best eyelashes... I am jealous.

And James wanted in on the action (for about 1 minute). This is his giggle face.

Davis: 7 months

I have no clue what his stats are at this age... all I know is that I love love love this little guy. He is still my "easy baby" but he has learned how to better communicate what he wants lately. 

Davis loves:

• To snuggle with mommy, especially those moments after nursing. We play little snuggle/giggle games during this time when we get to be one on one.
• To be tickled. He folds over uncontrollably while he giggles and nestles his head into me. It is quite adorable. 
• His daddy. When Haws comes home, Davis lights up. Dad can always get Davis is smile.
• His brother. After dinner James like to entertain Davis and make him laugh. He can really get him going and it is so fun to watch these two interact.
• To snort. He has discovered he can make a snorting noise with his nose and will get on these kicks where he does is for 20-30 minutes straight! His facial expression when he does this is hilarious.
• Chewing on anything he can get his hands on! He is teething (yes :( ) and is really working on those gums.
• Being social. He loves being around other kids.
• Eating solid foods. I have not found a food yet that he completely rejects. He even loves peas and green beans.
• making pucker faces when trying new food.
• The crinkle of plastic bags or water bottles. 
• Rolling all over the place and has even taken a few attempts at crawling. Not quite there yet though (thank goodness!)
• sitting up like a champ

Davis does not like:

• Diaper changes
• going into the car seat
• missing naps

He is still taking 3 naps. Long morning and afternoon naps and 1 short evening nap. Since we got back from Utah he has been waking in the wee hours of the morning .. not fun! The good thing is a nurses and then goes straight back down. Trying to make sure we aren't developing a early morning eating habit, but had a feeling there was something causing him to wake early and then voila  His has a tooth coming in! It appears to be a K9 tooth which is such an odd first tooth. The twins and cousin Caroline got those teeth first too, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. He is getting a tooth   3 months earlier than James did. We love you Davis... I can't believe you are past 7 months old!

And here are some videos for you to enjoy :)
