5 Months Old and Other Random Tidbits

Henry is 5 months old today.

He's getting really good at rolling. Probably because he practices in his crib when he should be sleeping. He demonstrated his rolling abilities this morning by making himself into a baby burrito.

Yes, he's on a blanket that has pink on it. One of the joys of having a big sister and using some of her stuff. Here's a picture of him on a cooler blanket to make up for it. Notice the "Tiny Tiger" shirt. Awesome.

The biggest new thing he's done this month is he's started on cereal. Sort of. He doesn't hate it, but isn't super excited about it either. We're still working on mechanics a bit before moving on to other foods. Here's some super exciting video of his first cereal feeding.








In other random news:



-Lily fell down the basement stairs eariler this week. The hardwood basement stairs with ceramic tile at the bottom. It was only the last 3 or 4 steps, but it scared my big girl person to death. Lily's ok though. Just got a little red mark on her nose. Now she keeps asking my big girl "Did you push me down the stairs?" Um, no. She caught you at the bottom. Thanks for asking though. And please don't repeat that out in public. Thanks.



- I spent several days in my "house" while we had some tree work done. Perhaps if I get my act together, there'll be a post with pictures and video. In any case, we have 2 less trees in our yard now.



- We seem to be a Pull-Up free house now. No more night time usage. Yea!



- My big girl person and the kiddos went strawberry picking the other day. Now my big girl person feels like Bubba from Forrest Gump...strawberry streusel muffins, strawberry smoothies, strawberries w/ whipped cream, strawberries on graham crackers w/ cream cheese...

Norm,

Excellent job barking instructions at your big girl person on how to feed that little guy. She clearly needed help as it appears food was getting all over the place.

Good luck with that new magic chair that's just around the corner.
