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 :)

Ready for school- It was SO cold this morning!

Will loves this toy- its a blue dog with all kinds of different fabrics and krinkly sounds. Plus has all kinds of fun things to put in his mouth :)- Thanks Leanne!
