Sick!

Jamie has his first cold. Poor guy. I went to get him after his nap and his nose was snotty. He's been coughing and sneezing, too.

All of this on our first wedding anniversary. I guess we're staying in tonight.

Missing people.

Not sure why I'm writing this, but there are lots of people I miss. Family, friends, those who have passed....

I'm glad that there are things like phones, email and cars. I just think the toughest thing in life is the fact that on a daily basis, you have to miss people.

To anyone reading -- please know that you are all very much loved and missed, even if I don't call or visit as often as I'd like to.

Yay!

Jamie smiled and waved to me this morning!

So many new things!

In just a few days, Jamie will be 7 months old. Wow.

It's not even 2 pm, and so far:

Jamie has taken 2 naps. (he's in the middle of his "after lunch nap")
His bottom 2 teeth are really coming in. They're very cute.
We're done with size 2 diapers. I used the last one when he first woke up, and we're officially into size 3's.
Jamie despises squash and prefers carrots. For now.
He doesn't waste time crawling across the living room floor. It's not a textbook crawl, but it's very close and the boy can MOVE.

Other things:
We lowered the crib mattress.
He had his first visit to the pool on Saturday. He liked getting his feet wet, but nothing else. I don't blame the kid -- that pool was pretty chilly.
He can stand up if someone helps him. As in, he can hold himself up, but would topple over without our help.
He can sit up UNASSISTED for a few minutes. Sometimes he topples over, but that's okay.


Whew, one day I had a little baby and the next day...I had a big kid. How did this happen?

Fresh peaches!


Last night, Jamie was starting to cut a tooth (our first tooth!) and didn't want the same old jar of pureed peas. So, I sliced up a peach and let him eat it through a mesh feeder. These things are great! He just gnawed away and still had an acceptable dinner.
