Growth Spurt

Baron has gone through a growth spurt in the last week. He was eating the normal amount of formula, but he was eating solid food 2 times a day instead of one. He was napping three times a day and sleeping all night. It is obvious he is growing like a weed, but this weekend it really hit me. The reason it was so obvious is because on the 4th of July we noticed he was practically jumping out of his excersaucer so we raised it to the next level. His little toes were barely touching the bottom. On Saturday (the 25th - 21 days later) we noticed he was standing flat footed again and really rocking the toy. At first we thought it must have fallen back to the lower level, but that was not the case. Baron AKA "Little B" is not so little anymore...
I felt it was only appropriate to post pictures of him eating this weekend. After all, it is what is contributing to his size!Morning bottle with Daddy.
Afternoon bottle with Mama
Snack time! These are the best invention! It is a mesh bag with a handle that is designed to have food put into it. Baron can lick and taste the food - even chew on it - through the bag. We don't have to worry about him choking. I started using them with ice cubes to help his teeth feel better (even though I am so confused about whether or not he is teething). Today we upgraded from ice cubes to watermelon and Baron was in heaven.
He couldn't get enough! I wish these pictures had sound effects because the slurping was out of control!

Wow look at all that hair he has. I seen those mesh things at Target and thought tht was genius, such a great idea.

Great idea the mesh thing. Hey our two Weber Boys teethed forever before a tooth would pop out. So if he's chewing that much it's a sure bet those toothies are under there. However they may take their time popping loose-smile! What a cutie!! Aunt Pam
