My, how time flies!

Yes, it has been over a month since my last blog post. I haven't gone and dropped off the face of the earth... just busy working and being a mom! Which, by the way, is changing and growing -- almost daily it seems!

Since my last entry, Julien has gotten a bit more mobile. He sits up very well now without any kind of support. He will also reach waaaaay over to pick up a toy (or grab at a dog) and right himself back up without toppling over. Hasn't quite figured out getting onto all fours this way just yet. But crawling isn't going to be his thing. Oh no sir, this boy is going straight to walking! His favorite thing to do these days is have someone hold onto his fingers while he pulls himself up to standing. He will do this over and over and over (and over) again. And while he's up he just wobbles around as he tries to find his legs. Its something like a cross between a drunk and the Ally McBeal dancing baby ~ but not as creepy ;)



Julien has also gotten a lot better at entertaining himself. In fact, right now, I hear him "talking" in his crib. Yes, he is quite the talker... "ba ba ba" "da da da" and the occasional "ma" come out. When he's happy, when he's mad... the only difference is the tone accompanying the babble.

When Julien turned 6mos we started to feed him some additional food as well. Bananas and avocado are the two he has had so far. And not "baby food" -- real bananas and avocados; peeled, mashed and mixed with a little breastmilk for consistency. From what I understand from Julien, everything goes good with breastmilk!

Uh oh, the talking has gone from happy baby to "hey mom, where are you" ... gotta run!
