Leaves & The Pseudo Crawl

Leaves

The leaves on our neighbor's tree all fall at the same time. Half of our yard is completely covered. Dylan loves to be outside, so we played in them for a few minutes yesterday until they started to become Dylan's afternoon snack.

The Pseudo Crawl

Dylan is on the move now with a pseudo worm crawl. He starts in a push up position as you can see here and then drops his knees down, lunging himself forward. Next he flops on his belly to scoot his hands forward. Then he goes immediately back into the push up. He is surprisingly fast considering all the extra work he is doing. Scott and I keep trying to show him to stay up and move his hands, but he does not like that one bit.

Eye on the Prize (Going for the orange star)

Mmmm! Got It!
Yes, Dylan is still teething. I keep expecting to see a tooth one of these days.

7 Months!

Our busy little boy is 7 months old today! It is also our Nana's Birthday. Happy Birthday Nana! We love you. Here are some pictures that capture the most recent Dylan updates.

New Car Seat

We have switched from his infant carrier car seat to a big boy convertible car seat because he was quickly approaching the max weight and height limits. So far he is very happy with the change. It must be comfortable because he fell asleep on the very first ride.

Get Ready, Get Set...

Dylan is working hard on crawling. He rolls all over the place and pushes up into either a push up position or a crawling position, but still has not put all the steps together yet. It won't be long before he is ready to GO!

Big Boy Baths

The infant bath tub we had been using was getting a little small so we switched to the big bathtub yesterday. He is still a little wobbly sitting on his own so this change was actually more work for Scott and I. Dylan loved it though! What could be better than playing (aka eating) his bath toys and books (Yummy!)? He enjoyed it so much that he cried when we took him out.

More Peas Please :o)

We finally found Dylan's veggie of choice! Much to our surprise Peas are the winner. Peas are my least favorite veggie and Scott does not like them either, so we saved them last. Anticipating the grimace followed by a stubborn refusal to open his mouth that has followed every other veggie attempt, I was shocked when he is opened his mouth and ate every bite!
