First bitty tooth!


Sander's first tooth peeked out from his bottom gum today! He wanted to enter the New Year with a chomp! He was so sneaky that I didn't even know it was there. Dada and Lucy noticed it while spending some quality time with Sander this morning. Lucy was so excited to tell me it was there! So far so good, no biting on mama.

Update: only 3 days later...tooth number two appeared right next to the first tooth. I noticed it at music together when he had a big smile on his face.

The Seven Month Old Charmer

All bundled up for play time in the snow.
This little guy weighs in at a whopping 13 pounds 4 ounces! He's such a little peanut.
Full of smiles, grunts, drools and cuteness, Sander melts our hearts. 
Speaking of hearts, he tugs on mine every time he says "mama" which is his latest new skill.
At seven months Sander is combat crawling and rolling everywhere...and he gets into everything. Everything then goes into his mouth.


Mama and Sander take a break while watching Lucy play in the snow.
Lucy and Sander's first time sledding together.
weeeeeeee!
At the bottom of the hill. Canute was very excited.
Sander likes to inspect food, suck on it, smear it around, and sometimes eat it. In a desperate attempt to enjoy and relax while eating my own steak dinner with both arms free, I handed Sander a big strip of porterhouse steak. He was al over it! Needless to say this kept our little guy busy and happy during dinner and beyond.

Checking out the steak.
Check out the two finger technique!
Here are a couple of videos taken the morning of Sander's seventh month. It is hard to get solo videos so he can show his stuff but I have to say, it is so precious to watch videos of both Lucy and Sander together.
