There are some things photos cannot express.

Sometimes you need to smell, sometimes you need to touch, and this is one of those times when you need to hear to get the full experience of this moment. A photo cannot capture the giggles coming from you.

A photo cannot capture the squeals.
A photo cannot capture the brotherly love that makes my heart swell and my soul bloom.

I am so thankful to have both of you and even though this photo cannot capture the real magic of this moment, I am still happy I have it because when I look at it, I get to live that moment over again and smile.

Thank you for making me smile, my boys.

Thank you for bringing all this joy into my life.

My little Nathaniel,

today you turn seven months old.

Seven.

Wow, where does the time go?

You are now crawling and sitting up all by yourself. You’re almost ready to stand up. You started eating solid foods and love fruits but you’re not such a fan of vegetables. Especially peas.

You do not like peas. If I try to feed them to you, you make choking noises and a very unhappy face. I’ve learned that if I want you to eat peas, I need to mix it with some fruit.

You love puffs and cannot get enough of them. When I put some on your table, you will grab them and shove them in your mouth.

Your bottom teeth are all the way out and the top ones are on the way.

You’re a big fan of Mommy and want to be near me at all times. Tho it frustrates me sometimes, I love seeing your whole face light up when you see me and I really love that you like me so much and I love holding you and hugging you and kissing you.

I know it will go away very soon but you still have the delicious baby smell and I cannot get enough of it.

My beautiful boy, happy seven months. I love you with all my heart.

My little boy, I can’t believe you’ve already turned six months old. You now have two bottom teeth and can crawl a little here and there, especially when you’re really motivated. You suck your thumb with all your might and it keeps you calm and happy. You can now sit up and do so often in bed to play with your little teddy bear and bunny.

Your naps are finally getting a bit more predictable and I know that if I put you in your bed and leave you alone, you’ll be sleeping within minutes. You have just begun eating solid foods and so far you like pears and bananas and don’t really care for peas. (Neither does your older brother!)

David, your Daddy, and I are all in love with you. We all want to hug you and kiss you nonstop. And you always smile and laugh and welcome the attention and love. You are impossible not to love.

We cannot wait to see what the next six months bring and we’re so thankful you’ve come into our lives, we love you so very much Nathaniel. Happy six months.

One of my big dreams about having two kids was that they would always keep each other company. That they would play together and feel the joy of having someone there all the time. Despite the many years you have between each other, I am delighted to see that you’re already playing so nicely together. I know much of this credit goes to your brother, for now. And I know that the days of constant bickering and fighting will come, too. But for now, I am enjoying every little moment of this sharing, caring, laughing, and love.

I made these with the October A Million Memories kit.

Nathaniel, you don’t know it yet but you’re the luckiest boy ever. Because for the rest of your life you’ll have a big brother who loves playing with you and entertaining you just to see your smiling face. He already spends hours putting on puppet shows for you. Aren’t you lucky?
