Brandon Rolled Over!

After hearing of all my friends' babies rolling over and me wondering if he would ever do it, B finally rolled over on 3.20.12!!I laid him on the floor and walked away for literally 3 seconds and when I turned around, he was on his belly! I instantly started crying because I was so happy but then I was sad because both Mitch and I missed it! I got him to roll over again on video (which he wasn't too happy about). Here it is:

My baby is growing up so fast!

5 Whole Months!

Last week I took Brandon with me to a doctor's appointment and one of the ladies in the waiting area asked me how old B was. I told her he was almost 5 months and her voice got about 2 octaves higher saying, "He's 5 months! He's so big! He looks like he should be 7-8 months! I have a granddaughter who is 7 months and she's way smaller than he is." Ugh....what do people expect you to say to stuff like that? Ok lady, my son is bigger than your granddaughter, wooptie fricken doo. So I just politely smiled and said nothing more to her.

Some people just simply have no tact. When you're pregnant or have a small child you become public property and everyone thinks they need to put their 2 cents in. No thank you.

ANYWAY....my tall, very handsome and perfect baby turned 5 months old on Sunday. I love him MORE each and every day. I tell him that at least 75 times a day if not more. Someday he'll get sick of hearing it but I'll never get sick of saying it :)

I LOVE YOU BKL! :)

Rice Cereal=Success!

After the bad luck we had with baby food, I was hesitant to try rice cereal. I didn't want him to have the same tummy troubles and I was nervous he wouldn't digest it very well. But I didn't need to worry! He loved the cereal and his tummy had no trouble digesting it! That made us all very happy :)

Mmmm!

B is quickly learning to use a spoon and is starting to open his mouth when it comes towards him. As the spoon came closer to him, he would purse his lips together and make a high pitch squeel and blow bubbles all over then smile. He liked it!

Such a messy eater!

Sitting and waiting for his next cereal meal :)

B matches Mike Wizowski!

First Baby Food...

At B's last appointment, his pediatrician gave us the go ahead to try baby food and rice cereal once he turned 4 months old. It wasn't so much a success...we gave him carrots and he was NOT a fan. I think I got more spit back out at me than he actually ate.







The next day I tried giving him sweet potatoes and those went down a little better. Even though he liked the sweet potatoes, his tummy did not. He had a bubbly tummy and he did not digest it well :( Poor guy! So we are going to wait until 6 months to try another round of baby food.

Soon, our next venture will be rice cereal! Hopefully that has a better outcome :)
