Carrots and Apple Sauce

My baby is getting so old! It makes me sad, but kind of excited at the same time. I think he is fun now, can't wait until he is more fun when we take him places like the zoo, or to parks, or to kid movies. He is now used to sweet potatoes and peaches, in the last couple weeks we have started him on carrots, and then tonight, it was applesauce.

Carrots


Applesauce lol

Do you think my kid likes veggies more then fruit? Fruit is always a shocker lol. Maybe when he is older it will change. Next week is either green beans or peas (I haven't decided yet) and the week after will be bananas. I try to do veggies and fruits alternating so that the veggies don't plug him up. I don't know if that is what you are suppose to do with babies, but I'm the mom lol So I guess it's my choice.

He also started crawling at 6 months. He hasn't mastered it yet, but my sister will be here in a couple weeks, and I'm sure he will be full on crawling perfect by 7 months when she gets here. At his 6 month check up our doctor was all weird about Riley not sitting up yet. Which wasn't exactly true. He will sit up, and he had the muscle control to stop himself from falling forwards and backwards, but he was still a little shaky side to side. Basically, if I left him in a room sitting up, I can guarantee when I came back, he would be on his back. But recently, he has it totally figured out! Usually, we shower with him, or I get in the tub with him, but since he is doing so good sitting up on his own now, tonight was his first tub alone since he was 1 month old.


As you can tell, he is starting to finally get real hair too! How come every other baby I know (older and younger) has more hair then my kid? It's ok, it just means he will have really nice hair (he will get it from his mom), because it's taking so long for his hair follicles to perfect it!
