Jeremiah Turns 5 Months Old

Our Jeremiah is such a young man! He has grown and changed a lot in this past month. He is really teething now and we are singing... "all I want for Christmas is my two front teeth". But so far there is nothing there. He loves standing, pulling himself up and walking (while we hold his hands for balance). He loves eating oatmeal cereal (banana flavor). He just ate carrots yesterday for the first time (video soon to follow) and did pretty well for the first time. He really is such a good little eater. He's talking a lot more in his baby language. Paul is really looking forward to hearing him say "Dada". He sticks his tongue out all the time. He discovered his feet a long time ago but is now really grabbing them with meaning. He loves his walker and is now going forward in it. He squeals in delight when he is in it. He also squeals with frustration when he runs into a wall and cannot go forward anymore.

He is working hard on crawling, he can get his butt up in the air and knees under him and he can do a push up lifting his chest really high in the air, but he cannot do both of those at the same time...yet. He does scoot around a little and then gets frustrated with the whole thing and then gets cranky. Sometimes he does not like sitting in my lap. He will straighten his legs to slide off my lap, roll over, and try to get away but once he gets on his tummy he doesn't know what to do. It's really fun to watch him develop.
