6 Months!

It's hard to believe this "Big Guy" has been the center or our universe for 6 MONTHS! He's such a talkative little boy, and he loves new people.

This is a picture from 2 weeks ago. I was laying him down for bed. He looks wide awake but don't let that fool you. No more than 10 minutes later he was out cold.
He's getting better at eating baby food. We have resorted back to Single Grain Oatmeal. (thank you Leah!) He likes it alot better than the rice cereal. I just started by mixing it with his milk, and then giving him the spoon to play with. Once he was putting the spoon in his mouth I mixed in a tiny bit of banana. (This boy loves Banana!) He's getting much better at actually swallowing! Once he squeezes his lips together I just put it away and try again the next day. It seems to be working. Once he gets really good, we'll practice with the other foods.

This car was such a smart purchase. He loves it. This makes tummy time alot more fun for all of us! He loves anything that lights up, plays music, and is LOUD! :-)
