Bath Time!

This is definitely one of Terren's most favorite times of the day. He loves splashing in the water!



Other milestones and notes for me...

He has discovered the joy of his own voice. The moment you start patting his back or bouncing him on your lap, the vocal chords start moving. He does the same thing the moment we pull onto a gravel road.

The day we took him for his 6 month visit, he started babbling and it continues on with mamababadadadadadada and I think I have heard a gaga a time or two as well.

He still isn't crawling and still no teeth.

He continues to sit and play independently and loves blinking lights and music.

I have started using the play pen because now that he scoots ALL over the house, he has discovered and eats my plants, TV cords, computer corders, lamp cords, curtains, shoes, remotes, cell phones, paper, magazines, and any other random things lying about. We have to be extra careful and very observant. Tayten usually does very well and picks up anything he doesn't want his brother to have, but he has accidentally dropped a coin or two or left "no-no" toys out (pom poms, jump ropes, BBs he's been collecting from outside).

He eats well and has been sleeping all night for almost an entire month now. He has been going to bed at 7:30, but we still wake him long enough to give him a bottle and change his diaper.

He does wake briefly some nights, but he is now able to search for and retrieve his pacifier all by himself. If he doesn't stop crying after 30 seconds, it usually means he has managed to push the pacifier out of the crib or he has overfilled his diaper.

He loves to be outside.

He loves other kids, especially his big brother.

Terren, you look like you are having a blast. Any teeth yet? Sounds like you have a helper for a big brother, that is great. Love both of you boys. :)
