I told him his new book was called "Choo Choo" but I think he thought I said, "chew, chew!!"
Learning to drink from a sippy cup! I gave him a little bit of water in the sippy cup for the first time a couple days ago. He can't hold it up too well on his own yet, but he did better than I expected The water still mostly just dribbled down his chin, but he did drink some.
And...sitting! Today was the first day he sat for more than just a few seconds on his own. He seems to be able to sit for at least 1-2 minutes, maybe a bit longer. He even started correcting himself, balance-wise, if he starts to lean a little, rather than just toppling over right away every time.
Also in the past week, he has definitely found his voice! It seems he is now either silent or LOUD. Talking, complaining, squealing or crying - we might need to buy more earplugs. Check out the video blog for some of it I recorded a few days ago.
Is it early to be sitting at 5 months? Wow, all of a sudden they don't seem like babies anymore...sniff sniff.
ReplyDeleteI think I just read that 5 mo is about right for sitting - ? He's still wobbly and mostly props himself up with his hands, but he's getting steadier. Still not rolling back to front yet!!
