Favorite foods: tomatoes and bananas
Evan loves cherry tomatoes. We cut them in half for him, he sucks out the juice, and then spits out the skins. There will be seeds everywhere, even in his hair. We ran out of bananas and tomatoes for a few days, and he seemed dissatisfied with every other food.
He got his fourth tooth in! It’s on the top in the front, just barely poking from beneath the surface.
Sleeping – He’s sleeping for longer periods of time. Sometimes he doesn’t wake up the first time until 2 or 3. The only problem is, he thinks it’s time to rise and shine at 4 or 5. He’s not upset or crying or anything, he’s just happy to see us and moves around a lot. It’s as if he doesn’t want to sleep 11 hours a night like we want him to. Not sure what to do about that.
Other cute things: he now smiles when we take his picture. He pulls at his diaper when it’s dirty. He knows to take his foot out of his pant legs when we’re undressing him. He discovered his tallywacker and his budda belly. He’s very aware of his body now.
Walking - He's taking a few steps at a time each day. He doesn't seem to know that it's a big deal, but he'll only do it if no one's looking and there's no pressure.
Jerry and I are enjoying him so much. We didn’t realize how much we’d love being parents. I’m sure every parent says this, but we feel like we got the best baby ever!
