Now that Andrew is sitting up and rolling all over the place (like, from one side of the den to the other), we've needed to make a few changes. The abandoned bassinette has been repurposed as a play pen. This will be a short-lived fix, though, as he's already starting to pull up on the sides.
And the den floor has been repurposed as a bed. Seriously. The little guy now roams amidst sheets and pillows, so that he doesn't eat every last speck of whatever I haven't had a chance to vacuum up and doesn't bonk his head too hard when he topples over. I think he's pretty pleased with how he's ruling the roost around here.
I'm sincerely hoping this will be short-lived as well, since I anticipate needing my den floor back at some point.
We've also dropped the 10 PM feeding and ramped up to solids three times a day now. But after the carrot fiasco, he ate naked for a bit.
And it went very well.
We've now given him his clothes back.
For a real shot of big boyness, he "experienced" a sippy cup of water this weekend at the pool.
But after all the excitement of our recent transitions and all the work he had to put into being such a cool dude...
our little duckling was all tuckered out.
And so were Mama and Daddy Duck!

Here is another first...the first photo of him in his eating chair he looks just like you did as a baby Elizabeth! I hadn't seen it before but that one could be a photo of you at that age! Love to you all!

Glad to see he's getting some use out of the ducky sunglasses from the Peabody in Memphis!
