eating or decorating?

For those of you keeping track at home, at Z's latest Dr's visit (he is 7 months, but it was his 6 month check-up and round of vaccinations) he weighs 23 pounds (95th percentile), is 27+ inches long (80th percentile), and his head circumference is in the 90th percentile. So...on all fronts, he's "big." On vacation we heard everything from "healthy" to "butter ball" to "lamb chop thighs" to "huge." ummmm....ya. all of the above. (Although...I don't think the growth charts have been updated since the 70's and folks are getting bigger...)

He is feeding himself rice chex at every meal - a lovely new development that gives me time to prep food - meaning that I get to eat too! He loves to make farty noises on exposed skin - bellies and thighs are his favorites. As well as sticking his tongue out he's making clicking noises. I found a game table for $30 at a resale shop. It's a great height and keeps his attention (a couple photos are available).

Sleeping? I still don't know what that is.

Vacation recap - still hoping to write more although I'm going to be pretty busy the next few days with J out of town. I didn't have a chance to write this weekend because we were working on our bathroom and visiting with a couple who are due in November. (yay!)

whew. It's busy. Tiring. Fun.
