Wow - I'm behind again!

Well... now that Benjamin is 5 months old - I suppose I should catch you all up!!


At the end of September Benjamin had his first session with Parents as Teachers. The school district sends someone to our house 6 times throughout the school year and they make sure he's hitting all of his developmental milestones. That night, she said he only has one thing left to do to be on target: roll over. Lo and behold - 24 hours later he rolled from back to tummy! We were so proud of him!! Don't mind his nakedness... but this is video of the 2nd time that day :)




Then, Eric & I went to Vegas for our friends wedding. That was Oct. 10th. Grandpa & Grandma Fedeler watched Benjamin while we were there. That weekend - he rolled from back to belly. He did that regularly for a while - but he's stopped doing it so much now!!

Now - on to the next milestone. When we got home from Vegas, we decided to start Benjamin on cereal. We started with rice cereal and he wasn't a big fan. So, we moved on to oatmeal cereal, and he liked that better!

So - yesterday we started him on fruits/veggies. His first food - avocado. He actually really liked it. They (books I've read) say it's a good first food because of the healthy fats. And, if you can get them to like that - they're likely to like other green foods! He chomped it right down!!
And - the final picture for today - Benjamin is a "Lil Stinker." This is his Halloween costume handed down from the guy that works for Eric. Ben will be a skunk for Halloween!! Well, back to Mommy duties! Take care and keep checking in. I'll try to be better about keeping you all up to date!
