Spitting "All Done!"

This is Luke's way of saying "No more food, Mommy!"

Standing in Saucer

Happy little boy! Notice he's straightening his legs now to push himself up.

Luke before his bath

Luke gets all wiggly - kicking and banging his legs and arms - right before his bath, no matter what his former mood might have been!

Playing with rings

Playing with his rings, and enjoying the texture of the chair - notice he wants to eat the arm of the chair? :)

Laughing in Jumper

Luke loves it when I make funny noises or kiss his hands and cheeks!

Drinking water

Luke LOVES to drink water straight out of a cup or water bottle! He is still pretty messy here, but you can tell how excited he is by how wide his mouth opens for more - he never opens that wide for food! And this water is refrigerater cold, too!

Entertaining Himself

Who needs toys - just get a little leg-slapping and some toes, and you're set!

Luke in the jumper

Luke's second time in his jumper and he's starting to get the hang of things.

Sitting and Playing

Luke's getting better at sitting - he can play with things while sitting now - doesn't need his hands to keep balance. Cinnamon chooses this opportunity to check out her increasingly active adversary.

Green Beans

Luke's first bites of non-cereal food! At first, he didn't seem to mind the green beans, but eventually, he started making faces, and rejecting them. The next couple days, he wouldn't even eat a bite or two without spitting them out! Thankfully, weeks later, he eventually came to like the green bean. :)
