rice cereal

I took these a few weeks ago but since I am a slacker blogger I am just posting them now. He loves it and enjoys a little banana in it when I add a little in. I am planning on buying baby food eventually, but until then he is quite content having just plain rice cereal. But he is still learning how to keep it in his mouth and get it down. The older boys like to inform me when he needs it and it also reminds them that they want cereal too. I have tried to give them bites of the rice cereal but they turn it down every time. Lil A doesn't even tell me he isn't a baby anymore like he did the first few times I offered it.

My baby is 6 months old today and it truly has gone by way too fast for me. Some things my little Bubba is doing:

-sleeping for decent stretches at night (not like at 2 months when he was sleeping 8 hours but still good)
-taking a great nap in the afternoon if we are home
-LOVES to talk and does it all the time (during church, at 6 am when he has decided he doesn't want to go back to bed but the rest of us are still sleeping)
-LOVES the excersaucer, swing and high chair
-LOVES his brothers, they can get him to smile and he loves to watch them play
-sits up and usually only "falls" over when he is reaching for something
-LOVES the remote, cell phones, computers...he really is a techie
-likes to nurse and have a bottle and will let you know what he wants
-still likes to be swaddled to go to sleep
-loves his mom and dad
-does a cute little head tilt
-likes the stroller
-likes to be held
-likes to roll around on the floor and gets places pretty fast this way
-scoots backwards and has scooted forwards but backwards happens more often
-LOVES the shower
-LOVES to be outside (even if it is just to get the mail and back)
