… is avocado! Lex didn’t think much of
it though. He took right to the cereal and bananas (who
wouldn’t!) but made funny faces today at the avocado. Very cute
faces to be honest. I gave him some in the morning and some in
the evening. Both times he ate 4 or 5 spoons of it, but made
funny, sputtery faces. He’s also been perfecting his raspberry
noises this past week, so picture that face and sputtery
sounds, with green avocado everywhere :) Good times, good
times.

Otherwise a pretty mellow
weekend. Lex has been talking a lot lately. He’s working on his
babababa sounds and mamamama sounds. Tonight he was so tired
and just looked at me with big tired eyes and said mama mama
mama… so, of course, I had to go pick him up and cuddle him.
He was hanging in his jumper and patiently waiting for me to
finish cutting Alan’s hair before putting him to bed. Such a
good baby.

I ordered a booster seat type
thing for Thanksgiving. I’m excited to have him sit at the
table with us :) We’re having two t-days this year too, one
with each side of the family. Now that Lex is eating some
solids I’m excited to have him sit with us and play with some
food. I also ordered a cool rolling toy that supposed to
encourage crawling. Its sort of dumbell shaped with lights and
mirrors and stuff, and it rolls around the floor. I thought it
looked like a pretty cool toy. I was thinking of getting him
one for Christmas, but I don’t think I’m going to be able to
hide it that long. Once it comes I think I’ll be too eager to
get it out and play with it :)
