Seven months old

Finnegan is seven months old. He's got chapped cheeks which we can't seem to fix, but he doesn't seem to mind too much. He is able to sit up with assistance, eat baby food. He especially likes carrots, sweet potatoes and oatmeal. He likes to chew crackers with his front teeth and he also likes to bite fingers. So, keep your fingers away from his mouth or "ouch!" He'll let you know who has the fiercest chompers in the west. He doesn't quite sleep through the night yet, but he goes to sleep between 8 and 9 p.m. wakes up for a midnight snack and goes back to sleep. Then he wakes around 3:00 a.m. for another snack and joins us in our big bed and settles in for a longer nap until 7 or 8:00 a.m. when he wakes up to eat and is ready for the day.
