There have been a few exciting things going on around here. Baby stuff, photo stuff, work stuff, website stuff… lets start with the baby stuff.
Lucien is now nearly 5.5 months old, he’s eating rice cereal a few times a week. We need to try to get him to eat it more often, he’s definately interested in eating, but he’s still grasping the whole concept of “over the tongue look out stomach here it comes”. He has moments where most of it goes in his mouth and stays there, but for the most part he wears it. Rice cereal is the new black. He’s also rolled from his back to his belly and then to his back again. Tummy time is finally becoming an acceptable thing to do. He’s talking lots more lately. Lots of babbling, putting sounds together. I keep trying to get him to say “Momma”. He’s also extremely fascinated by words. He gets very excited to see them and spends many minutes investigating your shirt if you are wearing one with text on it. He’s old hat at reading restaurant menus and he’s currently typing his autobiography on Daddy’s computer. We start our days by making coffee, fixing our breakfasts and then reading the world news and celebrity gossip. During the day we hang out either down in the den or upstairs in the nursery, sometimes we’ll hang in the living room where Lucien will kick around on his play mat or bounce in his jumparoo while I tinker on the laptop. Sometimes he naps, but lots of times he doesn’t. This kid just doesn’t want to miss a thing going on so naps are usually not an option. In the past 2 weeks or so, he’s realized how much it sucks to be cranky and tired though and will pass out eventually.
