This lady sold me this dog. I've seen the mommy, but not the daddy. Everyone tells me he looks like a real Pit, but I don't really know. Maybe you can help me out. He's 7 months and the one at the bottom is the mother and the other is of his siblings.

What adorable pictures!
Why have you not seen the daddy?
Did you buy from a reputable seller?
I'm only asking because "real" pit bulls usually are not cheap in price so the price you paid would be one good indication as to the validity of what the seller states.
A vet can usually tell pretty much if a dog is pure bred but to be absolutely sure, you would need a DNA test. These tests can be expensive.
You can try this site for some information if you want something for free. Just upload the photo and wait for an answer - seems to be pretty accurate:
YES, there are many breeds of pit bulls, yours is one of them
barring a DNA test, I would say I am pretty certain he is a pit bull.
From this website: "According to the United Kennel Club standard, Pit Bulls are rectangular, medium-sized dogs, and they are powerfully built with impressive heads, strong necks, broad chests and well-muscled hind quarters. Most Pits are very strong and hardy, and they are quite agile even though they are so muscular."

the site goes on to say that the big, broad, fairly flat head is a distinctive quality of the breed, and your dog portrays that.
I would watch out for his temperament. Is he incredibly energetic and smart? Is he heroic? Does he get frustrated if he doesn't have something to do?
Without papers of course it's hard to say, and if you're trying to use him to breed 'purebred Pits' it probalbuy won't work without papers, but you can feel certain telling people you have a pit bull, I say
He does appear to be a pit bull and at least mostly full-blooded. But there is no way to tell unless a DNA test is done.
He looks like a pit bull, but only a vet could do the tests and tell you for sure. If you paid for a pedigreed dog, you would want to know
He appears to be full Pit Bull. Did you have his ears cut?
He is definitely a pitbull. No if ands or buts about it. I've raised them my whole life
