He has sprouted 6 teeth and one is currently working it's way out. He's having a hard time dealing with the discomfort poor fellow.
He stands up quite sturdily now and is starting to cruise about. I'll find him cruising from one side to another in his crib. It's just so cute to walking into his room in the morning standing up gleefully in his little sleep sack.
He's doing a lot of babbling, like Pig he started off with ba-ba-ba, to a-da, a-da, a-da and then ma-ma-ma. I can tell he's trying to communicate with me. He'll turn to me babble a way and then pause as if giving me a chance to respond. My response is often a quizzical look and a cocked eyebrow.
He's starting to become a discerning (picky? oh horrors!) eater. He rejects certain textures and absolutely refuses to eat plain peas. I have to blend them up with something else.
His sleeping is improving. We're starting to see more full nights of sleep, he's averaging about 5 good nights a week these days. 'Course all this goes out the window when he's sick or teething.
He's getting to be a bit more independent. I was worried about this as he spent several months at Mrs. V's as the solo baby. He does get a bit clingy at times, e.g. when he's teething. But he's comforted by his blanket and his binkie.
