Good things

Henry continues to delight and impress us with his funny ways.
Jim has schooled him in raspberry blowing and he's now quite the expert. He gets in these raspberry conversations with himself. He must love the way it feels.
Then he'll switch to his "talking"... open vowel sound babbles... he's not big on any consonants yet but this boy loves his vowel sounds.

He loves to crawl and pull up and we've even caught him standing without any help a few times. Walking will be here before you know it! We're still lagging in the child proof department. We've got our gate for the stairs and have emptied the floor of hazards, but the cabinets still need their locks... someday we'll get organized.

He reaches up and plays piano a lot. He'll "sing" along with his music too. His little hand just romping around the keys. It's so so precious.

We are cruising with solids. I have figured out how to make just about everything I want and not be too overwhelmed with it. I will steam one veggie or fruit first thing in the morning, puree it, and spoon it into ice cube trays to freeze. Then later that day pop them out and they are ready for weeks of meals. He's enjoying just about everything I make which is always a chef's dream. He's up to 3 meals a day plus formula AND still nursing whenever I can! He's a eater!

His favorites right now are mangoes and yogurt, brown rice and veggies (we're trying asparagus today), carrots and apples, bananas and avocado.

I'll try and get some little videos of him soon... we've been having battery issues.
We're still searching for a new car and have to turn in the rental next Tuesday, so finding a car trumps all right now.
