Today was just an amazing day altogether. Waking up to my sons smiling face is just the beginning of a wonderful day with him. We both got around to go grocery shopping because Landons Uncle Ricky, Aunt Carly, Cousins Macy and Alexis are coming to see him this weekend. So of course while grocery shopping I have to hit the baby department and landed in the baby food aisle. Since Landon has been eating cereal for a few weeks now, I decided to try a vegetable. So we ended up trying squash as his first "baby food". To my surprise he LOVES it. Squash of all things? I would dip the spoon in the jar and he would already have his mouth open. Then after a few dirty and I mean DIRTY diapers, I decided to put him in his baby Einstein jumper that his Aunt and Uncle bought him. He figured out today that if he moves his legs it bounces. So he is getting the idea. Its just amazing the things he does different every single day. I had put him on the couch for a bit with his boppy and I made a noise and he jumped and then stared at me for a good 5 minutes. I started to try to baby talk and comfort him and the more I did that the further his bottom lip puckered and his tears started flowing. So as I bounced him and comforted him he calmed down and I asked him "are you still upset with mommy?" and he broke down crying again. I think I have an emotional son. But its sweet. Although next week he has a doctors appointment and gets his 4 month shots so that will be a hard day. I dont like to see his feelings hurt when his Nurse Jera gives him shots. She does it super fast and is really good, I just think my son isnt a tough guy yet. Dr. Fricker said "Jera does them so fast that most of the time babies dont even feel it till the 3rd shot". NOT MY SON....he started screaming on the first one at his 2 month shots. But I want him to be healthy so we have to get them done. I also noticed he likes to watch sporting events on television. He is watching the Heat VS Sixers basketball playoffs. Maybe hes going to be our superstar. Well it is now bath time for him so better log off for the night and get myself in gear! On to the next night.
