7 months

we've been a little under the weather and Brooks wasn't up for posing for the last couple of days. he's feeling better today....
it is almost unreal to write "7 months" already. i am truly amazed at how fast the time is flying by. we continued to have fun this month both in denver and away. here are some highlights...
- first trip to Rocky Mountain National Park for a fun day in the mountains
- an amazing road trip with Nana and Grandpa Phil to Mount Rushmore, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton and Jackson Hole! (we promise an entire upcoming post with these pics!)
- lots of new veggies and fruits in the diet - Brooks loves sweet potatos, all kinds of squash, peas, zucchini, avacado, bananas and applesauce. so far, the only thing he doesn't care for is water!
- our first case of something - runny nose for about 4 days. we'll just call it building your immune system :)
- Brooks can't stop rolling all over the place - he no longer just stays where you put him down on the floor making a little more work for mom!
Brooks continues to be the happiest baby and we are so thankful. Despite feeling sick this week, he kept smiling, still loved to be tickled and made friends with all the contractors at home depot yesterday!
