Cheers!

You know your little boy is growing up too quick when he has started drinking water out of a sippy cup. We've moved on to three small meals a day and his latest foods are asparagus, pears and barley. Celery, zucchini, peas and eggs are next on the roster. He's moving into 6-9 month clothes, started having his teeth and gums brushed daily and his hair which thinned out for a little while is growing in fuller. He loves tags, yes folks, those tags on pillows, stuffed animals, and washcloths are more intriguing than toys. He loves to have his bible read to him, gets mad when you stop and generally scratches at the pages while you read. Moses and the ten commandments seems to be of the most interest lately. He'll be out of his infant carseat this week and moving into the big boy car seat. He loves to splash his feet in the bath tub and suck a wet wash cloth.

We bought him an infant floaty for the pool and will start taking him in the water to get acquainted soon. Formal swimming lessons are to come in the next month or two. He's giggling up a storm and LOVES to drop things overboard for his mommy to pick up. We are trying to savor each of his fun little changes. He slept 10.5 hours through last night without waking up once, that was a record. I slept 7 hours straight uninterrupted as a result, it's been a long time. Cheers to that!
