More Firsts!!

Austin is REALLY growning up now! Everyday he amazes me. It's almost like I expected him to stay a little Bambino forever or something :)

Austin has been so fussy during the day, I think it has been out of boredom. We have all tried to entertain him and play with him, but he is sick of the same old stuff. I didn't realize, but he was ready to move onto bigger and better things. We have another babysitter, Denise and she has been telling me I should get a walker for him. I didn't at first, because I thought he was too young. Boy, was I wrong. We picked one up and he shocked me. He stood in it, and played with the attached toys, then he started to scoot himself around the room (We won't call it walk yet, just scoot:) ) We were at my mom's house on Saturday and we put him in it, and he loved it. It was so funny, but almost brought a tear to my eye. I couldn't help but feel proud, and just so emotional about the whole thing. He isn't a little blob anymore, not that I didn't love it when he was a blob, lol!!

Oh, I'm not done yet, there is more! That night at my Mom's house, Austin just kept eating and eating. We decided to give in and feed him some rice cereal from a spoon. It was so adorable! I wasn't sure how he would do, but he loved it. He swallowed it and then smiled like he wanted more. Again, almost got teary eyed! My baby is growing up!! Before you know it he will be playing Hockey with his Daddy and Gramps!!

I'm happy to report that I have finally taken the Doctors advice and I have stopped boiling his water. I was nervous at first (big surprise I know) but he has been ok. It's a lot easier on us too!

Hmm..What else?? He has been in a mood lately. I called the doc and he has to go back on Zantac until she seems him again in 2 months. He is miserable without the meds. Hopefully by six months he will outgrow that.

I will post pics soon of his sloppy food face that I love!

So, now you are updated on the life of little Austin!
