Growing up!

Logan has started pulling up to standing by himself! I think he had no interest in doing this until he started daycare and noticed the other babies standing and walking. He just started his third week of daycare. He is growing up and learning new things every day.



Who's that handsome guy?

I love every minute I get to spend with my little guy! He always finds something new to do or check out. Yesterday it was his reflection in the mirror on his snail toy. He was fascinated by it!

Food fun

Logan has started eating three "meals" of food/baby food a day. For breakfast he eats either baby oatmeal, rice cereal, or a jar of granola & fruit baby food. For lunch he eats a jar of baby food at daycare. Then for dinner he eats a jar of baby food plus sometimes something mushy like avocado, rice, beans, mashed potatoes, steamed & puréed veggies, or a banana. He still only has his two middle bottom teeth so I have to be careful what I give him. He loves Gerber puffs, lil' crunchies, & yogurt melts for snack food. The other day Jacob, Logan, & I went to On The Border for lunch. It was the first time Logan ate restaurant food! He ate rice and beans from my meal & ate some of the avocado from our guacamole. It was fun! He has gotten better at feeding himself, but has no skill at all with the spoon! I let him practice eating with a spoon a few times, but absolutely no food makes it into his mouth from the spoon. It's pretty funny and a complete mess. Here are a few pics.
"Feeding himself" with a spoon

First restaurant food

Eating steamed (and puréed) veggies 

First puff! He was unsure what to do with the first one...he left it hanging halfway out if his mouth like buck teeth! *He's figured it out now & pops them in his mouth right away!






Smiles

Logan is full of smiles! Here are a few lately.
