Fun to be One!

So sorry it's been so long!








Ok- 5+ months and totally rolling over!









Well, truthfully- he's been rolling over for a while and now he's to the point where he's figuring out how to get his feet and knees under neath him... He is also pushing himself up really well and LOVES sleeping on his tummy!








ALSO- something has begun to peek in the gum area... TEEFERS! Yep- he's got two little guys ready to poke through any day now! You can almost see them (little white spots), he drools like a St. Bernard and just loves to bite down on my finger- and while there are no teeth- he has got quite the bite! He could definitely give the APBT a run for its money.








We've done tons in the last month! Robby went to his first Braves game when Sydney and her school chorus sang the National Anthem. See the pictures below.








Robby is now wearing size 3 diapers and he wears 6-9months for clothes! He is our little chubster but he's proportional. For how tall he is his weight is a perfect balance. Besides- given his past digestion issues (see the Pyloric Stenosis entree) I say he's entitled to eat whatever and whenever he wants for the time being. Plus, once he starts crawling and then walking- he'll burn it all off anyway. He's definitely not the fattest baby in the history of the family. The rumor is that his cousins were way bigger and at younger ages too!








He also has a new toy! We've upgraded from the table bouncer to the door hanger... He LOVES to bounce around in it... He's got the ice-skater one foot-thing kickin'.... He sorta twirls around and around and then bounces on one leg.... Kids got talent, I see it already!








He is also still sleeping through the night... doesn't even wake up at all anymore! Absolutely fantastic kid!








We're also about to start him on solids... We tried apple juice and baby cereal a few weeks ago and he ate it- but he made some pretty painfully distateful faces... So I figured I'd hold off for a little bit and wait for him to come around... After all- I've sort of let him progress at his own rate... I didn't push the "tummy time" issue and he figured it out all on his own and is doing great. I never tried to regulate him or his sleeping/eating schedule- he did it all on his own and sleeps and eats just fine! So- I give him a little apple juice and water to get him used to the taste of apple and probably in the upcoming week- we'll go for cereal again.








Well, that about does it... Everyone is caught up to speed...if I remember anything else- I'll be sure to fill y'all in.
