* He really, really enjoys turkey. He ate a good bit at Thanksgiving dinner and some thinly-sliced deli meats from Mama's sandwich at Lenny's Saturday night.
* He had his first taste of McDonald's chicken nuggets last Sunday (minus the crunchy coating) and loved them so much he would grab Nana's hand and pull the delicious morsels to his mouth where he would bite down on her finger unintentionally.
* He also enjoys crackers and Nilla wafers, both of which he makes a HUGE mess of each and every time.
* He is cruising like a pro and crawling fast like a spider.
* He is blabbering constantly and is just days away from his first real word.
* He's going through a "clingy" phase and has to be in Mama's lap or on my hip all the time. If I'm not around he cries to be in Matt's lap. We're hoping this will pass soon.
* When he's hears music he'll grin, clap his hands together and rock back and forth sometimes even to the beat!
* He's slowly figuring out the sippy cup but prefers the bottle over all else. Oh well, I'm in no hurry to ween him of his "baba" anyway. One of the few things that reminds me he's still a baby.
* He has been excellent with Xmas decorations. He's hardly touched the tree and barely even notices all the other shiny, sparklies around the house. Baby-proofing has been very easy for us since he just doesn't care to put everything in his mouth the way most babies do.
As parents we realize how truly, truly blessed we are with our short stack. We are thankful for him in everything we do in every moment of every day.
