More Fun with Daniel!

Here's another montage of silly pictures and videos of Daniel. The first video was taken almost a month ago when the "bababababa" was new- it's too funny. You had to see it!! Daniel's on his changing pad, by the way, and this was taken after a bath not too long before bedtime. Oh and he squirms like crazy when he's on the changing pad now! Check out how Daniel uses his hands and feet to play with toys- so silly- I call him my little monkey when he does that. And I love the sweet pictures of him studying the book and you can almost "see" him moving his hands on the furry kitty! The next picture is Daniel's latest thing- at least it was last week- his tongue was always hanging out, even when he didn't have a toy in his hand! Courtesy of the teething I'm sure. Last night we were having fun putting the cups on Daniel's head and I would say "boom" when it fell off and he would just crack up- it was so much fun! Got some cute pictures of that. And the other video was taken today of him laughing at "knocking" over my tower and me saying boom again- the hat thing was apparently old today already, but the block tower falling was the hit of the day!

Other news...
Daniel's been really sleepy lately- taking GREAT naps and many naps. He must be growing! And I think this is how he's getting through teething, too. The last few nighttimes however, he's been waking up at least once- we're not sure what that's about. We'll get through it. No complaints!

We took a break from solid foods for a while because Daniel was clearly not interested and not really liking it and it was just getting frustrating for all of us. We started again yesterday, with just bananas. He did pretty well. It looked like he was actually swallowing it this time (he wasn't doing this so much before- most of the food just dribbled right back out!). We'll see how that goes. Maybe we'll try rice cereal again later or maybe even baby oatmeal. I also have some apples, too. We're just trying to relax and follow Daniel's cues- he'll get there, I'm sure. We'll keep you posted!

Silly thing of the week...Daniel is now trying to conquer the bathtub- by mouth! He loves splashing the water and will even taste it. Last night, he was trying to eat the plastic bump in the middle that keeps him from sliding. It was too funny! I tried to get pictures, but he's so fast. You can just see him studying the bump and then he leans over and tries to get it in his mouth and of course promptly sits up again as his face has just been practically dunked in water. He gets such cute expressions on his face! It's funny, but it does make me nervous as he gets his face in the water- though it's not like he can get that far. And of course we're right there! Bath time is such fun now!

Hope you enjoyed all the random, newsy posts today!
