Will's First Teeth Came In!

Tonight after trick-or-treating Will was playing with Aunt Bettye. He started sucking on her finger (like he has been doing alot lately) and she noticed that his bottom teeth had come in. He's getting to be such a big boy! Both his bottom two teeth have broken skin. I should have known, the past couple days he has been sticking his tongue out and rubbing it back and forth :) We were all excited and Aunt Bettye was so happy she found them! She loved on him for a long time. I videoed all the excitement with my camera and uploaded one below. Will had a great time with Aunt Bettye. He's such a good boy! He did so good trick-or-treating and then played and played. We are blessed with an awesome little boy! ps- we did get a family picture taken but not on my camera. When my cousin emails it to me I'll upload it :)

Happy Halloween!

Tonight Will went trick-or-treating with his cousins Anna Claire, Cross, and Sarah Mac. Will was the cutest elephant ever :) The pictures don't show his full costume b/c we had him bundled up with a blanket and socks up his arms- it was cold outside, butWill stayed warm. Will LOVES to go strolling and enjoyed it tonight. Anna and her friend Gabbie kept Will's attention for a long time and then he fell asleep in the stroller. Will had a lot of fun and can't wait till Halloween next year!

Will is getting to be such a big boy :)

Will is learning new things every day! It's amazing and bittersweet at the same time :) We have started feeding him big boy food. He can and will eat from a spoon...we are just trying to figure out what to give him. He has bad acid reflux so he has cereal in every bottle. If we mix the cereal with formula and give to him in a spoon he's not very interested- he would just rather have it in the bottle I guess. We have tried to mix it with applesauce and water it down. He likes the taste, but doesn't eat too much. I think it's because it's too acidic for him? I'm going to by babyfood bananas today and try that out :) I think he'll like that. He's so cute- he opens wide and then laughs after he eats. We'll try to get a picture soon. We also put Will in his jumpy thing this week for the first time. It didn't take him long to figure it out and he loves it! I think he looks like a ballerina doing changements (shahnzh-MAHNs). You dancers will know what I mean :) He uses one foot to jump and the other foot goes from the front to back! Brian took a video and I've put it below. Usually he laughs and laughs, but in this video he's pretty relaxed- he'll jump a little bit, stop and rest, and then start jumping again all while being pretty mellow :) He's so funny. We're having a blast with him. He LOVES to be sung to (or is it sang to??) and belly laughs all the time. I'll get a video of him belly laughing soon and post it. It's the best sound ever. His hands are sooo strong now too. He usually chills with Brian on the couch every night for a little bit. Now he has grabs big chunks of Brian's arm hair and won't let go. I think it's so funny...Brian does not :) He's also starting to grab my earrings and necklaces...so those will have to be put in the jewelry box for a while :)

Will is such a happy, healthy, fun, smart and cuddly baby! We are so blessed :)

Big boy after his bath
