Acting "Fishy"




Well, not really, but Carter does love it when I turn my head away and then look back at him again with a fish face. Then, the other day we finally discovered a new toy that will motivate him to crawl: the fish that comes with the Lamaze fishbowl. He likes the crab and the starfish also, but the fish has a bell inside it that really gets him revved up. He also has begun to push himself up on his hands and tiptoes as he figures out how to crawl toward it. He is really persistent.

Go Carter!!!

Casey is really great about crawling, especially with the dog in the room. She likes to sneak up on her and try to grab a leg or headbutt her.

Have a great first day back at school (work week).

How is food coming along, now that he is almost a crawler?

Well I made it through my first day back. I was tired and I was overwhelmed with all that needs to be done, but once I got home I forgot about all that :)

Food is going well. He is tolerating the formula still but we are still only giving him six oz. a day. He is more gassy but if I give him longer tummy time or have him practice sitting up, he burps more.
