5 Month Cutie

This month Austin had a lot of firsts to record. In addition to breast milk he tried his first foods this month: rice cereal, bananas, and peas. He's enjoyed everything so far. He makes a funny face for the first bite and then adjusts quickly to the new foods. He rolls over and reaches for his toes. His legs are very strong. When he lays on his belly he can scoot forward using his legs until his arms are trapped underneath him. He is more vocal now as well and keeps us entertained with very loud coos, sighs and raspberries. This month we also took a summer vacation to WA so Austin had his first plane ride. He was a champ and slept in daddy's arms nearly the entire time both flights!

My Boys


My boys are already having such fun interacting together. Austin watches Dylan play and smiles when he comes close. Here are a couple more pictures:
Belly Kisses!
Dylan reading to Austin about Dinos. Such a good big brother!

Firsts

I have been recording 1sts for Austin in his baby book and writing about them each month on the blog and I started thinking about all the big 1sts Dylan has had this summer since he turned 3. Here are some pictures:

1st Baseball Game
Cheering on the ABQ Isotopes in Cubs gear


1st JetSki Ride
Dylan loved it. He just kept saying "Do that again Dad!"

1st Roller Coaster Ride
We went to Boeing night at Cliff's and Dylan asked to ride the Galaxy Roller Coaster. At first we said no assuming he was to young, but when he persisted we checked and he could ride with an adult. His first words when it ended was, "Let's do that again Dad" So they rode the roller coaster twice while Austin and I waved from the ground. Looks like we have a little adrenaline junkie on our hands.
