Dance Time

My Son the Acrobat

I've mentioned before how Justin loves to do handstands in his crib and off of furniture. Well I finally caught him in action.

Horsing Around

The boys were having a ball horsing around with Carl on the couch.

Day of fun

Well, for the most part since our day started with therapy at 8:15 this morning. Surprisingly it was a very productive session; J drank about 90% of his Pediasure from his sippy cup which he's never done before. Of course it took him just over an hour to finish, but that's still progress. So going forward Hillary wants us to try his first 2 feedings from a sippy cup. His 3rd feeding can continue to be from the bottle while we're transitioning. She also wants us to start feeding him solids before his first bottle/cup of the day to see if he'll eat more.

After therapy we headed to Great Lakes Crossing to shop for summer clothes for the boys. We found some good deals and also splurged on a few things for our future niece. I'm so going to go broke shopping for this little girl, lol!

We had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe and the boys had a ball while trying out their first kids meal at a restaurant. J willingly munched on french fries and chicken tenders, YAY!



After lunch we let the boys have at it in the play area.





Needless to say both boys were worn out by the end of the day.

Feeding Daddy

Look whose walking

Justin's walking

He's still trying to catch his balance, and knows that crawling is much faster at this point, but he's getting braver and attempting to walk more often.

Peek a boo

Justin had a ball playing peek a boo with his Ty C & cousin Aiden.

Splish Splash

Walking (or something like it)

We have a climber

J has discovered the stairs and is on a mission.



And if at first you don't suceed, try, try again!

Justin's new crawl

I've never seen a baby crawl like this before, have any of you? I didn't catch it on camera, but he starts out doing a regular crawl and switches half way through.

You can also see his teeth in this video.

I've been up to a lot lately

I've been hearing the word NO a lot. I know what it means, but I'm too busy exploring to pay attention and stop what I'm doing. But can you blame me, I have a lot of catching up to do.

I'm finally getting my first teeth, one on top and one on the bottom.

I weighed 17 lbs 2 ozs at my last appointment 2 weeks ago and am comfortably fitting into size 6-9 month clothes, and wearing size 3 shoes.

I graduated from formula to Pediasure and am enjoying the new flavors, especially strawberry. I'm experimenting with tons of new food and textures, and get a taste of pretty much everything mommy eats. My favorite so far is definitely the biscuits at Red Lobster. YUMMY!

I proved daddy wrong, I'm crawling all over the place, pulling up on everything and starting to cruise along the furniture. He didn't think I'd be crawling before he got back, but at this rate I'll be walking and running in no time. He thinks he's going to wear me out but he's got another thing coming. Check out my moves.

On the Move

Although Justin is not crawling yet, he certainly knows how to get around. Sometimes he scoots on his back while at other times he roles to his destination. Often, he will look like he is going to crawl but gives up. Perhaps the funniest occurrences are when he rocks back and forth on his feet and head. Yes, I said his head. Maybe parents don't find that unusual, but I do. lol

Okay, my descriptions don't do any justice so check out the videos. (Sorry about the picture quality.)

Justin is putting everything in his mouth nowadays. He has to be teething but no teeth have broken through yet. But I thought these videos were pretty cute.
