OK these past couple of weeks he is doing so much that it is hard to keep up with him. I was use too him doing things one at a time but not anymore. Boy life has changed so much!
So this week he is moving all over the place with crawling. Also he is standing himself up. He is walking holding on to things while standing. I put him up in his crib standing up and came back in and he was on the other side. Last night I used his Valentine money from his Great Grandparents and got him the Leap Frog musical table. He is not ready to stand on it without someone next to him because he keeps falling too hard. But I put it near the couch and all of the sudden he moves from the music table to the couch! I didn't believe it at first so I put him back on the table and he did it again. OMG does this mean he will be walking soon?!?! NOOOO!!!! I am not ready. Seriously growing up too fast.
So I noticed (thanks Traci) that his crib wasn't at the lowest it could go. I was so afraid since he was standing up in it that he could fall out. So Daddy had to figure it out after a long day of work. Thanks Daddy!
I have been swearing that he is cutting another tooth and this morning I felt and sure enough the 2nd tooth is coming in! Right next to the other one. The other one still isn't all the way through. So that explains all the lovely diapers this week.
We went to Physical Therapy this week and it was his last session until he walks! I really don't know if I am going to take him to that last one when he is walking because his measurements have been even for 3 months. If I see something then I will take him back. She was very impressed with his crawling. YEAH NATE!
As you know we took him off his acid reflux medicine. Well I talked to Brad that I thought I notice it coming back. I asked him to see if he sees the signs too. It is really hard to tell if the sound is snot or is it the acid going back and forth. Well Brad came to me the other night and said "I think your right the acid is back". I knew I wasn't losing my mind! After he said that he woke up 3 x's that night. So after we gave him the medicine he finally settled back down. He also has been playing when I have been trying to feed him a bottle. I still hear some of that noise and I may have to increase the dosage since he has out grown this dosage. But the acid noise has decreased since we have been giving it to him again. I will have to call the Dr about that one. So unfortunately he is back on it but hopefully it won't be forever.
Stage 3 food is going so much better. He doesn't gag as much with the chunky baby food. The only thing he isn't getting is the smaller items. He will put them in his hand but won't put it in his mouth (example Cheerios). The bigger items like a biscuit or graham cracker goes straight to the mouth. He has started chewing too.
Nate went to his first birthday party for Benjamin this past weekend. Nate had so much fun in his activity center. He was very loud in it and I hope it didn't bother anyone. I did give him a nibble of Ben's cake and he loved it. I can't wait until his first birthday. I am still trying to pick out a theme...snoopy (every time it is on TV he is glued) or macdonald (favorite einstein tape). I want to try to make his cake so I am going to have to pick it soon so I can start researching.
Funny things about Nate...
Anytime he hears the Lottery Numbers, Weather or traffic report his eyes are glued to the TV. So is his career going to be on TV like cousin Lynnsey when he grows up or is he going to win the lottery for us?
Also since he has learned to stand he doesn't understand how to get back down. So he does this whining cry thing to help him get back down. (brad and I are not fond of the new cry) I keep showing him but it isn't clicking yet. I know this will be coming soon! And as I am typing this he just sat down on his own. FUNNY! He knows I am talking about him...
