yum, real food!

i love tummy time, it helps me fart!

i am so intent on getting this cereal that as soon as the bowl is near me, i grabbed it and tried to pour it into my mouth, but mom made me use the spoon--she is way too civilized.
my first bite!
dad had a shot at feeding me too, he did great!

today was a big day for me, i got my first real food. the doc had told mom to wait until i was 6 mohts old, but i kept grabbing at food and crying when mom and dad ate in front of me, so mom explained all this to the doc and she said that i could have real food, finally--i have been starving. the doc warned that most babies take 1 week to 1 month to realy start eating the food, to get the hang of closing the mouth around the spoon, swallowing, etc. I have been carefully studying mom and dad for a while now, so i was an old pro, i ate like i had been doing it all my life! we are very excited in this household, cause now maybe my tummy will be full enough that i can sleep longer at night! two other big things happened too--i really started to notice my dog jack and he is hilarious--everything he does makes me crack up, and not just a little giggle either, i mean he is hilarious to the max...daisy, she is not so funny unless she is playing with jack, i just like to smile at her. i also surprised mom the other day. for a while i was rolling from my back to my belly--i kinda got tired of that and have stopped, but mom had me on my belly and was talking to jack and then walla--i was on my back, i cannot really remember how i did it either, cause i have been trying ever since to do it again, but i am still very proud. here are some pics of me in tummy time and then my first real meal!
