So obviously we've been to the beach :) We had such an awesome time! It was Will's first trip to the beach an all in all he did fabulous the only downfall was the ride home (note to self begin ride home in dark when you have a child that hates his carseat...hehe) he loved the ocean but leave it to me to have the one kid in the world that isnt put straight to sleep by the crashing wave sounds. He is so nosy (just like his momma) that he cant close his eyes hes just to afraid he might miss something good! I loved taking pictures on the beach this year of course Will was reason number one because theres absolutely nothing better than little piggy toes in the sand but the second reason was because I got to take tons of pics of my sis-in-laws (Jenn) twin girls. They are 2 now and they were all over the place which made for some great shots! I am also very excited because a friend of mine told me about a continuing education class at the u of m in october for photography. I hope to go so that I can learn more skills and hopefully start to turn my passion into something I can share with more people!
As far as everything else goes Will is now 4 months! I cannot believe he is growing up so fast! He was 14lbs and 25 inches at his last doctors appt. He did great with shots and was such a great trooper for the rest of the day. He LOVES standing, with assistance of course but if i try to make him sit he gets fiesty, but given the choice between laying down and sitting up he will gladly sit up! He has also rolled over and luckily me and Joey were both there to see him do it. He hasnt done it again after the first two times but in his defense we went to Florida so he didnt get much "tummy" time last week!
Our latest issue would be feeding. At our 4 month check up the Dr said we could start feeding him cereal...well there is only one teeny tiny problem HE HATES IT! He literally cries and Ive tried feeding him a bottle before and during our attempts but we are completely unsuccessful?!?! The nurse in me gets worried that if he is this upset and we keep trying that he is going to associate feeding time with stress and fear so I dont want to force him but I dont want him to get behond either. Technically I know that they dont even recommend baby food till 6 months so I prob shouldnt worry but I am a worrier for those who didnt know. Does anyone have any opinions on this or suggestions? I have also tried mixing it with juice and fruit with no lucky either go round.
But enough about that overall I dont have a single complaint about my life, I love having so much time to spend with my sweet baby boy! Speaking of which I am trying to play blog catchup so more blogs are coming!
