A week of firsts.

Well, Noah continues to surprise us this week with "new things." We tried to give him some infant rice cereal today(note the bad picture taken from my phone that had cereal smudged on the lens). He did NOT like it and made a grotesque face every time we tried to give him a spoonful. In this picture he is saying "please help me. Tell them to stop putting this yucky stuff in my mouth." We are going to have to gradually get him used to the cereal. Hopefully this isn't early stages of a picky eater.

Noah always tries to grab his bottle while he is being fed but the last couple days he has been able to hold the bottle himself!!(picture soon to come) He gets lazy after a few minutes and often drops the bottle, but it is a start in getting strong little arm muscles and coordination. He still has twitchy, jerky movements but still...he is starting to hold his bottle(sometimes).

Noah surprised us this afternoon during tummy time. I had just put him down on a mat and Beth and I were watching him when all of a sudden.....he rolled onto his back!! It was so awesome. We kept putting him on his tummy and he rolled over five more times and then a few times in the evening to show daddy. We are so proud of him! We will capture it on camera when we get a chance. Sorry we don't have more visuals with these updates but he is hard to keep up with these days (and the camera battery died and has not yet been recharged).
