Well, this year is rolling on! Miss Caroline turned 7 months on 12/13/16. She is currently 17lbs 6oz and 26.5 in long. Which is 56% weight and 46% height.
She can say "bababa" "mamama" and "dadada" which we like to pretend means us. Lol. She has two teeth on the bottom. She can sit up on her own for a while before slumping over and can "stand" when propped up such as at the coffee table.
She is still dealing with acid reflux, but it seems to be clearing up some. She also has eczema (like me, boo) so we have to use special lotion.
6-9 month clothes Size 3 diapers 2 bottom teeth Nurses 5 times a day (although this will change soon when I start work next week and start pumping and giving more bottles) Solids about twice a day Terrible napper (a few 20 minute ones total) but does pretty great at night Reflux meds doubled, had a sonogram to look at her stomach which was normal Crawling (it's mostly scooting but she does get up on all fours and move forward) and pulling up! Hates avocado and having her nose wiped Loves all other food Loves giving huge smiles but doesn't laugh much! Says "dadadada"
She is probably 15 pounds not sure how long. She wears 3-6 month clothes still and some nine month clothes. She eats one meal in the evenings. Nurses a ton still. Which is more me than her probably. She sits, won't really roll anymore but wants to move, no teeth yet and in size 3 diapers.
DD was 7 months on the 24th. No teeth yet. She started saying "dada" yesterday. She can scoot backwards but hasn't figured out how to crawl forward yet. She is about 16.5 lbs. I'm not sure of her height but probably not more than 25" based off of her 6 month measurement. She is in a size 3 diaper and just beginning to wear 6-9 month clothing (although some of the pants are long). She absolutely hates getting her nose cleaned. She's eating baby purees twice a day (sometimes three times) and gets bottle fed breast milk about 6 times in a 24 hour period.
R is 18.5 pounds wearing size 12m and in size 3 diapers. He has no teeth but they are coming in soon. He sits really well and scoots backwards. He can clap and loves clapping and laughing at big brother. He loves food, but favorite is sweet potato right now.

E was 7 months on the 11th. She's 17.4 lbs and in 9 or 12 month clothing. Size 3 diapers when she's not in cloth. She has 2 teeth (which she's had forever and I am totally okay with the others holding off). She's crawling really well, pulling up, can get herself from her belly to seated and just started babbling more. Sleep is still usually 2-3 hr stretches which is kind of my fault because it's so easy to just boob her back to sleep. She's starting to really like food and still doing great with breastfeeding.
DS2 turned 7 months yesterday. I can't believe how fast it's going. He had his 6 month needles a couple of weeks ago. His stats from then are 20 pounds and 27.5 inches. He's still wearing size 4 diapers. He can fit some 12 month clothes, but he's moving on to 18 months. He sits really well unassisted, but can topple over sometimes. He's getting better at it every day. No teeth yet. He isn't crawling yet, but he pushes himself backwards and can get up on his hands and knees.
Sleep is all over the place. He barely sleeps during the day and some nights he sleeps well and others not so much. Still nurses every 2 hours during the day and he eats one meal of solids a day. We might start doing 2 meals of solids a day soon.

E hit 7 months a few days ago. According to my own super accurate scale weighing and tape measuring, he's about 18 pounds and 28 inches long. 9 month clothing is perfect right now.
He's a sweetie. He smiles and laughs, especially at his sister, his favorite person. He babbles like crazy, mostly "b" sounds. He likes sweatshirt strings to chew on. Eh, he kinda likes all things to chew on. He has 4 teeth--oddly, 3 on bottom and 1 on top. The 4th on the bottom will break through any day now.
He likes me and bottles of milk. He does not like solid food, and he chews on sippy cups of water. He's tried avocado, sweet potato, yogurt, and applesauce, multiple times. No dice. He is not interested in swallowing any of it so far.

Ds2 is 7 months today! He's 20.25 pounds and over 28 inches. He is babbling, rolling all over, and so grabby. Everything goes straight to the mouth for gnawing but no teeth yet. He loves his jumper and brother more than anything and is generally a pretty happy guy.
I just realized I never updated for 7 months! They turned 7 months last Friday.
Both are sitting unassisted! L is so sturdy and has excellent balance. G still face plants on occasion, but he's getting there. He enjoys tummy play and can get himself up on his hands so high, just can't quite get the knees under him yet. He often spins in circles or pushes himself backwards across the floor. L doesn't like to be on her tummy, except for sleep at night, so who knows if she'll ever crawl. I almost think she'll go straight to pulling up and walking someday!
They've finally started actually ingesting more solids just within the last week. So far we've just done some purees, some avocado, and mum mums. Slowly but surely.
No idea on weights, but they just graduated into 9 month clothes! They wear CDs during the day and size 3 diapers at night.
G has his 2 bottom teeth coming in and they're adorable. And sharp!! L is still all gums.
They've become such fun little people. They love petting the dog, reading stories, playing in their jumpers, and their favorite toy right now is the little FP bin with different shaped pieces you match to the holes in the lid. For now they just like dumping them out and chewing on them.
They generally sleep well, usually 11/11.5 hours at night. But teething and growth spurts mess that up a bit. G hardly naps. Maybe 2 half-hour naps/day. But I guess that must be all he needs! L still naps like a champ.

The FP bucket and lid for the shapes is a huge hit here too!
DS turned 7 months on the first. He's close to 20 pounds and probably around 29" long. He's in 9 month clothes with some 12 month thrown in and size 4 diapers. He loves rolling and has figured out how to push his feet and move his arms to move himself forward and other directions. He can't sit yet, which I guess I'm a little worried about. He loves all the purees. I tried giving him mashed up banana even adding some water to thin it out, and he wanted nothing to do with it. He has one tooth that poked through a couple weeks ago. He is such a happy baby and so good. He sleeps usually from 8:30-somewhere between 3 and 5. He eats then goes back to sleep for a bit. I just feel so lucky that he is mine!

Kevinmac don't worry about the sitting! It's one of the most variable skills in terms of when babies do it. Anything up to 9 months is normal. My DS only just figured it out, and he's 8 months.

7 months! Sounds so grown! He has 5 teeth (yay one of the stubborn front top finally cut through last night) He loves pulling up on anything and the newest development is experimenting with letting go and trying to stand. He's a master crawler and I'm mostly just glad he hasn't started walking I know he'll do that early too and then we're really screwed. He has opinions, he likes to dance and play bongos and strum the guitar. He likes his dogs. He gets so freaking excited when I come home from work it's the cutest thing. He can drink from the sippy cup (360) and he likes bread & avocado much more than any mushed veggies/cereal/purees. Mostly in size 9. Pjs are 12 because he's long. Size 3 diapers. He was 17lb a couple weeks ago, maybe 18lb now? He'd prefer to nurse all night instead of sleeping but at least he's cuddly and adorable so I can't say no at this point. He's a charmer and I'm so lucky to be his mom.
