Crawling.... eeek!!!

Have we meantioned Xavier is crawling? He started two weeks ago (7 1/2months), and he does a mix of rolling, crawling and general wiggling, but it gets the job done and has made him very mobile all of a sudden! He also love "walking" if you hold onto his hands, and standing up against the furniture is another big hit. There will be more video to come, but those of you who are not on facebook, join up and add me (Rae) as a friend, as I have found that is the easiest way to load videos.

and he's off...

Oops, a stargate fan in the making! I didn't know he would get so far so quick, one minute he is at the othe side of the lounge room, and then he is under the coffee table! Clever boy...

We think he and the kitty have been playing together too much, they both love being in bags!

Bathtime fun

We had a lovely weekend of visitors over the long weekend, Xavier had so many doting Aunties, he had a blast! We kind of forgot to take many photos though, except for bathtime, so here they are. :D

Mummy and Bubby

Jolly Jumper

Yay, I like this!
On guard ye kitties!
I'm gunna sneak up on Mummy...
Tasty goodness in stick form
Faster than a speeding bullet!

This is a bit of a favourite at the moment, ever since he had his first jump he has been hooked! These photos are from his very first time in the jolly jumper. He had a ball! Sora the Kitty was a little freaked out by it though... just made it all the more hilarious for us to watch!

7 months old today!

Can you believe how fast he is growing up! WOW!

This is one of his favourite pastime's at the moment, he just LOVES standing!

Toothy-pegs are a showing

They came a few weeks ago, actually i think it was the day after he turned 6 months (i should really write these things down... oops...), But my point is, we finally have a shot where you can see his teeth! I hope. Tell me if you can't and I'll try again. Now that i have finally got this shot, we are expecting the top ones through any day... so then I'll need a new shot!

Food.... hmmmm....

We waited until 6 months before giving Xavier any solids, and are now trying hard to make them a part of his daily routine, much to his disgust!

So these are the very latest photos of our little man, taken over the last two days. We give him a sippy cup for the first time yesterday, and he straight away took it with two hands and stuck the mouthpiece in is mouth. He loves it! can't take it away from him now... hehe!

With food though, he is on a all-out strike on anything pureed or sloppy. After battling with it for three weeks, we started trying the BLW idea of giving him real food in pieces that he can hold himself and eat, and he has instantly started eating a little. So here is a pic of his first piece of avocado (big hit!), he also likes watermelon, LOVES pears, and a few other things. Now i have to find creative ways of giving him food he can hold though! fun fun times to be had! :D
