My little man is soooo different from Abbie. He is not much of an eater, and sometimes it takes everything we have to get him to eat some baby food! He loves sweet potatoes, and most of the fruits, but boy when it comes to the veggies.....just wait for the spitting and spewing! Yesterday he got his first taste of cool whip! He was refusing to eat his green beans, hence them all over his face and bib! I decided to see if he would eat the cool whip, then the green beans...IT WORKED!!!! I know I can't do that everytime he won't eat his veggies, but I know he enjoyed it! I will tell you that he absolutely loves any kind of cracker! He will shove the entire thing in his mouth and just gum it and chew it to nothing! His most favorite is Nilla Wafers! You should see him go to town on them!
Here is Austin right after a bath the other night! Opinions are very welcome here, as I ask who he looks more like....me or Josh? He loves his bath, especially now that we have him in the big tub, where he can splash around. He got too small for the baby tub, so we had no choice but to move him to the big tub! Every night I walk in with nice dry clothes, and walk out like I have ridden on Thunder River, drenched from the water fall! You should see when daddy tries to mohawk his hair!!! Once it has dried that way, there is not getting it to straighten out!!! Now, just like Abbie, he is growing up much too fast! I look back and see him as a scrawny 4lb baby in the NICU, and now he is growing and learning so much. Although he still isn't crawling
yet, he is getting closer and closer each and every day. He can move his knees, just not his hands! Not quite that coordinated yet! He is babbling more and more each day. It really warms my heart when he talks to me! He will wiggle and wiggle, then say babababa and mamamama, wawawawa, yayaya, and then smile his big smile! Let's not forget that with every smile, you get a tongue too!
Along with his verbal skills and his motor skills, he also has a new addition in is mouth! His first tooth has finally broken through his gums! It broke through a couple days before he turned 10 months old. In those few days, he has already learned how to use it!!! I think we are in trouble when he gets more in!
All in all, my babies are growing up way too fast! In two months, my little one turns 1!!!!! In my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would have two little ones running around that were so close in age! In looking at the near future, I am right around the corner from having a 1 year old and a 2 1/2 year old! Oh how time has flown by.
