Lots of Things are Happening

Lots of things are happening around here this month.  Ryter has started to sit almost on his own.  He's much better at using his muscles to keep him from tipping over than he was a month ago.  He also enjoys standing, assisted of course, most of the time.  Last night was his first night eating solid food.  He'll be 5 months next week so it's a little early, but he hasn't been sleeping through the night lately and tried to grab my hamburger from me on Tuesday.  The doctor suggested we wait until 6 months, but what does she know.  He didn't have a facial reaction like I expected him to.  He just sort of ate the rice like its something he's always been doing.  Maybe I can expect more of a reaction when its time to give him peas or something.  He's also so giggly now and sings all of the time.  He's a pretty drooly baby and has a lot of saliva in his mouth all of the time.  He's figured out that it makes a pretty great gurgling noise so he sings and gurgles.




Here's a video of the toe obsession.  I know some of you didn't believe he actually does this.
