To quote my Facebook status from March 24th, "As of 6:30 this morning, Eric and I have been trying not to "mess up our kid" for 7 months." I think, so far so good!
I finally got around to downloading the video I have been shooting here and there of Harry over the past 2 months or so. It's what you expect - alot of boring shots of him sitting, eating, laughing. (see previous post)
He is sitting up very well these days! He only topples over if he tries to look behind him or gets overzealous going for a toy. Grammy Dianne got him the tub chair (that you see above) to help him in the tub to sit up straight. For most of the bath he leans over the front edge to grab whatever toy is just out of reach. Post bath, we like to wrap him up like a baby burrito and look in the mirror.
He and the dog still aren't the best of friends. But I had Harry give Franklin a treat today, and I think that might have swayed Franklin a bit. Franklin mostly just lets me know when Harry poops by sniffing the air and walking away.
Last week we had him on the swing for the first time at Aunt Maria's house! I had him on my lap on the big kid swing, then Uncle Dave got out the baby swing so he could go for a solo trip.
STILL no rolling over! But we are quite the eater. We have now acquired a taste for pancakes. At Harry's check up the other week to get a booster shot, he weighed over 20 pounds! Thank goodness we got some more hand me down clothes from Cousin Brett and Cousin Dylan. I get sad when I have to put away another bunch of baby clothes he has grown out of. Time to have another! :)
