Teething... still

Xander now has two teeth. He has his center bottom teeth and they are so cute!! He loves green beans and banana baby food and we are trying prunes next... Wish me luck!

Update

My sweet Xander had his first taste of banana baby food today~ not sure if he liked it. He would spit 1/2 out and swallow the other half. This should be very interesting. We know that he likes the wheat cereal and the oatmeal cereal. He does really like green beans. Maybe we should stick to veggies for awhile longer?

Today is the 11th of January and we just got a light frosting of snow~ second time this season. I don't want snow but if we don't have a decent winter I fear what will happen in the summer.

Rose is bringing Sierra over today to get to know the kids. Sierra will be here on Monday. Clark will be here on Friday. Then the 25th I will finally have the state here to give me a check up and license me.

Week 27

Sweet Xander is finally feeling better. Poor little one has had a rough week. He started to get an ear infection but it was caught in time, thank goodness. He is slowly getting his voice back.

Scott and I took advantage of a Christmas gift we received from Sarah and went out to a movie (Mission Impossible 4) and dinner at the Olive Garden. Dan and Jackie watched Xander as we spent the night out as a married couple. It felt like a first date~ loved it!

Xander is heading into his 6th month and has already been eating wheat cereal. Last night he tried green beans for the first time and he loved it. Tonight he tried oatmeal. He ate it but was not completely in love with the change in flavor. I can't wait to start him on a variety of fruits and vegetables.

We are attempting to help him sit on his own. He's not there yet but, with time... He is playing more and more with his toys and, when I lay him down the other day, went to get a bottle ready for him. When I came back he was on his back hugging the butterfly that his Aunt Toni and kids sent him. It was the cutest thing ever. Sometimes I wish that I had a camera attached. By the time I returned with a camera he was done hugging and on to other things. Oh, what a joy it is to watch him grow and change and learn. What an amazing adventure we are all able to live.

Eating green beans...

Sitting up...

With daddy...

I'm always excited for the next week and the growth that will come with that.
