Look at those delicious, bread dough thighs!
-First solids at 5 1/2 months: oatmeal cereal, which continues to be his favorite (why is rice cereal the norm? Do they want babies to be constipated like 1st Brother was?) He likes veggie more than fruit baby food. This time-consuming, messy eater stage can be cute, but I'd skip to age 3 if I could to get past it. Having a spoonful of food swatted away or trying to keep your child from eating his feet between bites is messy and frustrating.
-We were calling him "Hank" a lot, which evolved to "Hankers," then 1st Brother started with "Mankers" and it's become very popular with us
-He does this terrible corner of the mouth, head twist and clamp down move when nursing. He only looks up at me bewildered and/or laughs when I sternly tell him no. No teeth yet, thank goodness. He's become a pretty distracted nurser lately too.
-Reaches out with his feet a lot to touch things around him
-Started reacting around the beginning of December when we'd do something he didn't want--take a toy away, walk out of the room, etc.
-Laughs almost every time lately when we say the word "bam!"
