Its that time again! Another month has passed with lots of exciting happenings! After just beginning to crawl at the start of last month, Amos has taken off. It didn't take him long to figure how to pull up to everything - crib, TV armoire, legs, etc. It took just a little bit longer --thankfully-- to learn how to sit back down. So now he can pretty much get wherever he wants. This hasn't happened without spills, but luckily, early on, my mom advised giving him a chance to be OK, without swooping in a saving him from the spills. I've taken it to heart, and found out we have a tough little boy on our hands. He face plants, whimpers, and then tries again!
He's a great eater, and quick too! We are still to a combo of pureed food and table food. I'm hoping this will be the last month for purees and we can exclusively eat "real" food. We shall see though. And his favorite way to drink is from a cup. Although it caused him a bunch of trouble last week, tooth #2 has yet to make an appearance above his gums.
He babbles quite a bit, but mostly when he is alone, or thinks he is alone. We hear him carrying on in his crib at the end of naps, or while in his car seat or stroller. Speaking of car seats, he's actually fallen asleep in his a couple of times. So hopefully we are past the -"No, I'm never going to sleep in my car seat"-phase.
We're down to two naps a day for the most part. Sometimes we squeeze in a third, and he still sleeps through the night - Hallelujah! He's content to spend his days moving from couch, to table, to toy chest and back. He doesn't seem to have a favorite toy, but just likes the variety. I just rotated his toys and he seemed rather thrilled to find some new guys in his toy chest.
Its been fun this month, watching him learn things. I can see his mind working as he decides he wants to do something and then figures out how to do it. The best is yet to come!
