Other New things in B.s life

So he is growing SO much and SO quickly....here are some more new and exciting things.

1- He sits up unsupported and on his own. He learned this really quickly. He took a few tumbles and now he corrects himself rather quickly.

2- He is eating baby food as well as biscuits. He tried a small piece of pumpkin bread- it was funny. He LOVES pickles. He gets to suck on them.

3- No teeth yet, but they are ready to pop out any day now.

4- He enjoyed his first Halloween as a cow. He was a trooper that day going all over town to see grandparents and aunties and friends.

5- We have raised his exersaucer he is always in because he is getting tall. He loves being in that thing and can make it move- he is learning how to walk.

6- He still fits in his Bumbo seat but not for long. He has learned how to reach for things. He likes to sit in the kitchen when I cook and play with the magnets on the fridge.

7- He is starting to lean when he wants someone else to hold him. When I pick him up from daycare he leans for me to take him.

8- He isn't making words yet but he puts noises together to talk. He loves to talk. He is going to take after his father and be a talker.

9- He LOVES water. He will have no fear of water. He is out of his baby tub now and into the big tub. I haven't boughten a 'conversion' tub because I just want him to learn how to sit in a normal tub. He has taken a few headers in the tub and the other day he was under water for 2 whole seconds. I lifted him up and he did a little giggle and a smile. He was initially scared but that turned around.

10- He can sense feelings of others and take their cues. If you react negatively then he will react negatively. So if he falls over and starts crying- we will react positively and with a smile and that everything is okay. Then he stops and laughs too. If we react like we are panicky and scared that brings him on even more.

11- He is getting a little of a stranger freight. This is typical at this age. He doesn't cry when he is dropped of at daycare or Gmas or some places. But if he sees a new person sometimes he gets scared. Then we laugh at him and he stops.

Those are some simple updates of Brandon. He has grown so fast!
