First Tooth!!


Diddle has his first tooth at 5 months old! I first noticed it today and shouted excitedly to Casey (who wasn't near as thrilled and intrigued as I was). This explains his weird sleeping patterns that started to develop last week. (note: this is not Diddle's photo. It is a google image I pulled off the internet. My baby is much more difficult to photgraph.)

Mr. Personality

In the past few weeks I have really notice Diddle developing his own distinct personality. Here are a few of my favorite things he does...
1) He gets REALLY angry with the sheep on his exersaucer. I think it's because he can't get it into his mouth, but it sounds like he is yelling at the poor sheep. He stares at it and yells with a very frustrated and angry look on his face.
2) When you put him in his pumpkin seat he arches his back and scoots making it very difficult to buckle him. He has always hated that seat so it figures that he would find a way to prevent getting strapped in once he built up the muscle.
3) He loves to be around people. He is definitely not one of those finicky babies that cries when a new person holds him. He likes to get to know new people and will inspect their face as they hold him. He also loves going to the mall and cruising around in his stroller taking in the sights of the shoppers. I think he is going to be a people watcher just like his mom.

Somedays I look at him and can't believe that he is growing and developing so quickly. It seems like just yesterday he couldn't reach his little arm above his head to touch the toys hanging above his mat. Now he can grab them and pull them right to his mouth.
