I've finished teaching my drawing class, so now I'll have more time to update the blog.
Will's doing great- and so much these days! He grasps for toys regularly, puts them in his mouth and transfers them from hand to hand and picks them up and puts them back down.
We've also started feeding him rice cereal and some first stage baby foods. Most of the food ends up in places other than his mouth (behind his ears, up his nose, on his bib, onesies, legs, etc) and he makes the silliest faces when first tasting some new food (peas, bananas), but he's willing enough and seems to enjoy the new tastes. It's all for practice at this point anyway.
Will turned five months last week. He's due for his six month checkup in August--more shots and measuring of his head--the usual.
He's sleeping a LOT better now. He goes to bed at 7, wakes up at 11ish to chow down eight ounces and has started to skip the 3am waking. He'll sleep through until 6 or 7 am. Mom and Dad are a little more rested.
We take the jogging stroller out regularly now. The dogs and Will and I have a nice 4 mile loop that takes us about an hour. The jogging stroller is wonderful (thanks Mike and Mike!), much easier to push through the park (off road).
And a short video of Will's first rice cereal meal:
