Big weekend!

This weekend we started Brendan on Multi Grain Cereal mush. He loved it! He reached right for it and kept the majority of it in his mouth. He especially likes it when he can help hold the spoon and when he "helps" eat it with his fingers. Here is the video from his first meal on Saturday as well as some of the best faces he made while eating.

He also got more practice with his sippy cup. He really likes to hold it by himself, but doesn't understand that he has to tilt it to get anything. So he holds, we tip. We are going to keep practicing and hope that between cereal and the sippy cup he can eat if I am away from him for more than 2 hours at a time.
Saturday was also the first day Brendan sat by himself for a good amount of time. By Sunday he was sitting for 5 minutes with no problems. We are "convinced" that the cereal made his bottom heavier and helped balance out that head of his! He is growing up so fast!

Last week we gave Brendan a bubble bath. Immediately after getting in he tried to eat the bubbles.

Sam made a fun hat for Brendan. He seems to like it.
