7 month milestones

Derrick will officially turn 7 months old tomorrow.
He is developing at exponential rate, and sometimes I get scared that he's growing up too fast :[

But, it is such a delight to see him grow and learn something new every day.
We went to the group play date again and met Annalee, his favorite friend.


Derrick loves touching her and staring into her eyes. He gets this nervous look, which is so endearing. It's amazing to see the interaction between the two babies. They can't talk yet, but I know they're communicating with their body cues, and also with their eyes. Annalee is 6.5 months and Derrick is 7 months, so he's already trying to be a 'oppa' figure to her, look at him placing his hand on her shoulder!

We also went apple picking at All Seasons Apple Orchard  this monday. Since it was Columbus Day, many families came out to enjoy the weather and the fun activities offered by the orchard. I pre-purchased the admission tickets online, which was super convenient. One interesting side note; the orchard is owned by Koreans :]


All dressed and set to go!


Here we are! 




Derrick is as big and as cute as the pumpkins!
>_<


On the kiddie ride with daddy! Derrick rode with Buttercup :]


Here's the video of them riding it together :]







And here we all are on the wagon to the apple trees!


It was a gorgeous day!
Here's a video of the wagon ride





Here is Derrick picking an apple!


And then playing with it :]

Family pic!
Thank you All Seasons Apple Orchard for a great time!






The past couple days, Derrick has been struggling so hard and literally sweating, to crawl. He hasn't figured out that in order to crawl, he needs to do the mini push up AND lift his butt and the SAME time. I don't think it'll take too long to put the two together :]
It also seems like he'll be teething soon, I can feel little stumps on his gums. These changes occurring to him might be the reason why he's waking up during the night.


We have another visit to the doctor to get the second half of his flu shot, and halloween is coming soon!

Until the next post, keep us in your prayers!
