Austin Accomplishments & Funnies

We're spoon feeding now! Not for all meals, but we are taking the time to teach Austin how to eat from a spoon in the evenings everyday. I must say, he's doing quite well! We do a scoop and a half of cereal (mixed with his soy formula) and then wash it all down with a 3 oz bottle. Once he starts getting more down his throat than down his chin (and everywhere else he decides it needs to go), then we'll add another spoon feeding to the schedule. :) But for now, its once a day...and very messy(but that's the fun part, right?).

Gettin the hang of cereal from spoon.

Our new favorite accessory...cereal!

Another thing Austin is doing now is figuring out his feet. He loves staring at his toes and reaching for his feet. Sometimes they keep him entertained for a full 10 minutes. Its funny to see him grab his feet and topple over sideways, then roll back onto his back and start all over again. :)

Oooo! Feet!

I decided that I wanted to cut some hair off of the back of Austin's head. I wanted to save his baby hair & put it in his scrapbook before he lost it all.

Before the hair cut!

After the hair cut!

Hahaha! I'm kidding! Though I really did cut his hair as you can see in the above picture. I got the hair that I wanted, but I did quite the hack job. Its crooked and uneven. I can't very well get it straight though. He's far too interested in what I'm doing when I'm trying to make it look better (scissors in hand). We'll just have to wear cute little beanies when we go out in public...at least until his hair grows back out. ;)


I'm still adding videos to Austin's blog. Hopefully I'll have it completely updated by the end of the month. We'll see. ;) Click HERE if ya wanna take a peek!



Oh, I almost forgot! I made some curtains for Austin's Nursery. The white sheers alone weren't blocking out enough sunlight and were making it difficult to put Austin down for a nap. So I added these today to his window. They worked like a charm! It was so much easier to put him down for his naps today. YAY!
