McHone Family

It's been a little while since I've added a new post - I feel like we've been really busy! I think that's what happens during the summer, there is just so much going on! Well we're still working with Brayden and eating. After the sweet potato incident we decided to just buy a couple of jars of food to see what he liked instead of making all this baby food that he wouldn't eat so first we tried peas - it was a no go. Then I tried his rice cereal again because we knew he liked that... it was a no go. So I decided to go to fruits thinking that because they are sweet maybe he would eat those... and it was an ok, he doesn't make the "lemon faces" with every bite. So we just keep feeding him at least once a day and he's doing better - he'll get there! You can tell that he's interested because he watches us eat and will grab my arm and take it to his mouth so we try to feed him when we eat because he's so interested - he wants to be a big boy :) Speaking of being a big boy, he weighs around 16lbs and is well over 2feet tall! We're still working on sitting up, he will sit up for bits at a time but he's so curious about what is around him and so wiggly that he ends up back on his belly or back. As for crawling he usually gets his legs under him or his arms and chest up but never both as the same time except for last night! I was on the floor with him and he got both of them right and got into the crawling position! It was so cute because he just stayed there like he wasn't sure what he'd done or what to do! Ryan said not to encourage him too much because we'll really be in trouble when he's crawling! lol :) He already rolls and scoots all over let alone adding crawling into the mix - mommy's going to be in trouble! :) :) He's SO cut - he's such a blessing and joy! I love to watch him grow and learn - being a parent is SO amazing and rewarding! I love it!!!
