Nolan David,
You are 7 months old! It is hard for me to comprehend that we are over half-way through your first year. This month has brought lots of changes, but also many family memories as we continue to settle into our new little town. Time seems to move faster with each passing day, and I am doing my best to soak in each moment with you.
Month 7 was another big one for our family. We moved into our very first home, and you got your own room!!! You also started army crawling and sitting up on your own. These were 2 big milestones for you. It is so fun to watch you crawl all over the house :) You also got to watch your first Ohio State football game. Daddy was just a little excited to watch football with you! Now daddy is counting down the days until he gets to teach you how to play catch!
One of my favorite things about our new house is the backyard. We love having our own yard and swing set. You love, love, love to swing. I think you would swing all day if I let you! You also still love stroller rides :)
Now that you can crawl, move, and sit up on your own, you and Katherine have started "playing" together. She makes you laugh, and you love to chase her around the living room. I am so excited to see your relationship grow over the years and pray you will one day become the best of friends!
As we move later into your first year, I want to remember all the little things you do.
-I want to remember the way you wrap your fingers around my thumb.
-I want to remember the way you bury your nose into your mattress and move your head back and forth 3 times before you fall asleep.
-I want to remember the way you put your hand on my face when you are startled or overwhelmed.
-I want to remember your half-smile.
-I want to remember the way your face lights up when you see your sister.
-I want to remember how happy you are when you wake up in the morning.
-I want to remember the relief on your face when I come to comfort you in the middle of the night.

This month we celebrated daddy's birthday. It was a beautiful day, and we enjoyed time outside as much as possible :) We also realized you turned 31 weeks on the same day daddy turned 31!
