Cheerios

B had his first cheerios this morning...and Keaton "said" 'cheerio' for the first time...And he's been saying it.all.day.long.

Some photos...

You're a...

Maybe Jaws would be a better name?
I hate the grainy quality of this picture, but it definitely shows how much K loves his little brother (& how thrilled B is with that!)

Yummy teething ring...

My sweet, sweet boys :) The bruise on B's forehead - thank you K...it was a swift kick to B's head - pure accident! (Yes, B is that huge...)

We started sweet potatoes at lunch today - he loved - of course :)

I go in tomorrow to get my toe rechecked and make sure it's healing properly from the surgery.

Bebe comes in this weekend (yay!!)

We have B's 6 month checkup Monday morning.

And that's about it for now! :)

Movin' on up!

Well, Benjamin had a new food this morning. It is so wonderful to be back to making baby food - even though, I'm working on the easy foods right now ;-) I baked some sweet potatoes and them froze those...and then mashed up some avocados and froze those...

This morning, I gave him some avocado. Apparently, our family doesn't like them. K didn't like them either. However, I was one step ahead of B this morning, I got a banana out and mixed it with the avocado - Avo-nana? :) He LOVED it!! He was screaming at me if I wasn't quick on the draw :)

He's loving having variety in his 'diet', I can tell (who wouldn't?!)

I weighed the boys yesterday. Our scale isn't always accurate, so I knew I may not get an actual 'read' of their weights, but I could at least tell how far apart in weight they are...

Keaton - 29lbs....
Benjamin - 21.5lbs...

That's right - they are 16months apart in age and 7lbs different in weight! K didn't weigh 22lbs until 15months! haha! My lil piggy! love it!

Benjamin now has a....

Yes, yes, we caved. 5 months and 2 weeks...but he's waking 1-2 times a night and eating like he hasn't eaten in days. I was so sad we didn't make it to 6 months...but, I want to sleep again...so, we started the oatmeal today at lunch time.

First bite....

About half way through

...I think he likes it ;-)

Oh, my sweet happy boy! I could eat you!!!!
