Starts

My mom came to visit this weekend!

YAY!

(and of course I already miss her)

She had lots of fun hanging out with the little guy.

Besides lots of playing she also helped Alex start new things!

(thats what gramma's do - they play and teach new tricks!)

The first new item to try was his highchair!

Were hoping to get him used to to his new seat at our table so that when the time comes to start real foods it will hopefully be easier.

not to mention maybe Chris and I might get to sit and eat at the same time now.

Speaking of sitting ....

Can you say Excersaucer!!!!

Oh Boy! is this gonna be a fun toy for Xander!

He is still a little too small for it, and I have to stuff blankets around him, but even at this early stage for him you can start to see the lightbulb turn on, that this is new, and not something just hanging above him to bat at.

He likes it!

LOOK!

Intentional grabbing!

Thats an awesome thing to see these days, and always makes me smile!

Of course it'll be more fun once his feet can touch the bottom!

Thanks Gamma Q for helping us try new things!
