Pictures of the Day
Jason was outside washing his car, so we put Anderson is his jumper in the garage- I decided to play around with him with my sunglasses- SO FUN! Man, he was loving it! Here are some of the photos :)

Learning To Eat...
Ok, this is all so new to me! I had NEVER thought about this, but one has to LEARN how to eat with a spoon! Not only learn to open your mouth to insert the food, but also to allow your tongue to bring in the food rather than push it out! WOW- what a concept!
FOR EXAMPLE:
For 3 days now, I've been giving Anderson rice cereal at night before bed. Well, today he finally was able to keep about 60% of it in his mouth! All the other times, I'll put the spoon in his mouth with a little cereal and he'll work it out of his mouth- not because he doesn't want or like it, but because I can tell he doesn't know how to keep it in. It's the cutest thing to watch him learn what I think of as some of the simplest things- Now he's starting to open his mouth when the spoon is coming near as well; not every time, but often.
I'm so proud of my little man! (He's not that little tho..)

We started on rice cereal...
Need I say more?? :)
Actually, AJ really enjoyed the rice cereal- he ate each and every bite (shocking by the look of him, I know!)- however at times I felt like there was more coming out of his mouth on the spoon than there was going in! But...he did eat it and was happy! He just really wanted to put his hands in his mouth the entire time, so today when we did it, I held his hands (which he didn't mind) and he ate even better. He only eats about a tablespoon each time and I have no idea if it's helping or not. We shall see! My hope is that eventually he'll sleep longer, but so far it's just something fun and different.
