7 months old and eating apples

We marked Nicholas' 7 month birthday by introducing him to his first fruit--apples! He is also very close to sitting up on his own--he can for 10 or 15 seconds if he's focused on something, but sometimes he just forgets he's sitting up and falls backwards, so we have to be there to catch him. Or, he'll see a toy to the side that is out of reach and lean over towards it, and then just roll over. Nicholas has also discovered the Moe cat and smiles and laughs whenever he sees him. It's really cute.

mmmm apples....

Nicholas' first reaction to apples... we weren't so sure at first but he did decide he likes them

He's actually sitting on his own, I just have my hand there to catch him if he decides he's done sitting

In other news.... well ok there is not much other news. Christy had fun at a girl's night out at Movietown on Friday, and David tried out a new golf course Saturday morning. It even had golf carts. And caymens.... (aka small alligators)

We do have some fun things coming up as Christy will host book club this month and we will host the embassy monthly wine and cheese in May. We are also getting ready for our upcoming trip to go to Macy and Elizabeth's wedding. We practiced having Nicholas sleep in the pack 'n play but that didn't go very well and mommy didn't get much sleep either. At work we are looking forward to the new ambassador arriving soon as well as Christy getting to move from the non-immigrant visa section to the immigrant visa section.
