So sorry it has been so long since I have updated this! It seems the older Leeland gets, the busier he keeps me! I kept telling myself, "I'll do it soon.." and it has just been too long!
Leeland is now six and half months old, twenty-seven inches long, and still not quite fourteen pounds (long and skinny like dad!)! He is a healthy, happy little guy and still just the best baby we could ask for! He is on solids now (which so far consist of cereal and veggies)! His favorites foods so far are sweet potatoes, butternut and acorn squash, and peas. He has had several other foods but those seem to be the ones that he just can't get enough of! We have a few more green veggies to try, and then we will move on to fruit!
Leeland also sleeps through most of the night when his teeth are not bothering him! Yes, that's right.. I said TEETH! He is cutting his two bottom teeth, and boy, I feel like the are bigger every day!
We got a Knoxville Zoo membership towards the end of February, and we go about once a week with one of my best friends, Katelyn, and her little girl, Addalyn. Leeland loves to just check everything out! The last time we went, we go to see the bird show and a hawk flew right over us! We also got to see the ever-famous African Grey Parrot, Einstein. She is TOO COOL!
I have joined a group called PEP Moms, and it's a really cool group that meets at a local church once a month from the Fall to the Spring and we are put in groups of other moms that have children close to the same age. Our meetings are over until the Fall, but we do playdates pretty often with the moms and kiddos from there. Some of the ladies and myself actually went out for a Ladies Night Out lastnight and we saw the movie, "Babies".
Anyways, at times it is just so hard to believe that Leeland is growing up so fast!
I just remembered to mentioned that he is "army" crawling! He will scoot around pulling himself along with his arms, but he is also getting super close to really crawling! He gets up on his knees and rocks, and will get one knee forward, and maybe the other before he seems to lose his balance. I will have to get some pics and/or a video of him doing it!
I hope all of you that are reading this are well, and we are looking forward to seeing the Indy family soon!
Hope everyone enjoys the pictures and videos!
