Updates! Marcus 7 months old

I have to get these pictures on here!  It's so much easier to post to Facebook using my iPad, than using my blog.  So, now I get discouraged and don't do it.  I have limited time, so that means Blogging gets cut when it's not easy.

Anyway, updates!:  Marcus is turning 7 months in a couple days!  Time is flying by.  He's sitting up with support, sometimes alone for a couple seconds, and wants to grab everything within reach.  He's very sweet and also very vocal.  He's screaming mad and screaming happy.  He LOVES music and we pretty much play music for him all day.  He will bounce or jump or just get happy/comfortable when music is playing.
He is nursing still and eating baby food a couple times a day.  He drinks water from his cup and loves to see what everyone else is drinking.  He is just getting over his 2nd head cold of his life.  Poor guy was so congested and pouring snot...oh, and got his first tooth at the same time! (Bottom left).

The kids have been enjoying summer vacation and driving me crazy! ;). They're really good (usually), but all of us together seem to make each other crazy some days.  They love Marcus and it's fun to see the dynamic between them and each of them with him.  He loves them so much and it's heart warming to watch his face light up when they talk to him.  

We are finishing our second round of swimming lessons, they are really working!  Alexya is learning all kinds of strokes and how to dive!  Sonny is learning how to swim forward for longer sections and underwater.  It's fun for them and Marcus's favorite part of the day.  I sit and hold him by the water for 1/2 hour, uninterrupted. :)

We are trying to pack in visits and family events this summer, but it's a challenge because packing for a trip is now a 2 day, organized event!  Not easy.  Visitors that want to come see us are always welcome! :)
