Eating and Playing

Tavin had his first pool party today. The water was a little too cold for him or maybe he was just scared. I tried stickng his toes in the water and he just cried. It was fun to hang out on blankets in the back yard with our friends.

Tavin is trying more solid food. He does enjoy playing with all the textures in his hands over being spoon fed. He gets a little messy but that's okay!

Tavin is Crawling!!

Our sweet baby Tavin is crawling! Oh my goodness how the time goes by. We are in trouble now. We will see just how baby proofed our house is. We lost our other camera that does video and this one is kind of poopy but at least it captured the moment. I am also adding some photos of Tavin at a playdate and napping with daddy. In one of those photos he looks like he is doing pushups. Haha.

Sweet Baby Tavin

Tavin is seven months old tomorrow. Which means he is now closer to a year old than a new born baby! :-( It makes me sad and happy all at once. His personality is so sweet and fun and I love watching him develop into this little person. It seems like it is happening so fast! I have been trying to get him to nap in his crib. I'm torn on wanting to hold him while he sleeps or getting something done around the house. My chores will always be there for me, I will hold him while I can.

First Tooth

Tavin's first tooth has erupted! The lower right central incisor. He has been in the teething process for what seems like two months now, the drooling, chewing or gnawing on everything and the eating strikes! Well today the first tooth is finally here. I thought that I saw a little white bud on his gums but I didn't think much of it because that had happened before. I decided to put my finger in his mouth (don't worry, I had just washed my hands) to feel around and let him chew on it...and there it was! That little tooth is sharp! Poor little guy was a little crabby today but he still managed to give me some laughter and smiles.

Tavin with Mom

Just a few photos of Tavin and his mommy! I'm always behind the camera so my friend Christin took some photos of me and Tavin together!

Threatening to crawl

So cute! Tavin will definitely be crawling soon. He is putting his little butt in the air and bending his knees. He is starting to figure out how it all works!

Giraffe

I had to get some photos of Tavin in the cute little giraffe costume before he grew out of it. He thought it was okay at first...and then the pictures go down hill. He had a look on his face like "what are you doing to me?" and then he would smile, but not when I had the camera. He usually gets so serious in front of the camera. Same goes for the videos too.
