3 more things

Along with some of the more subtle changes that happen with Andrew on a daily basis, he has achieved three more major milestones.


1. Sitting up: He can sit up by himself. This amazing feat is not to be confused with the earlier ability to sit when sat. Before, Andrew would stay in the seated position until he eventually fell over. He would neither get to the sitting position, nor would he leave it. He didn't know how to do either. Now, he can do it all. When he first mastered this trick, Chris went to pick him up from a nap. He says to me, "Have you been in to see him?" "No, why?", I respond a little confused. I go look, and there sitting up like a big boy with Lovie under one arm, is Andrew."



2. Eating Real Stuff: You know from the steak finger incident, he can handle solid foods. More accurately, he loves to eat. And he eats any and everything (except peas, which we discussed this summer). Andrew has just one simple rule: He has to have his own spoon.He doesn't really care if that spoon has food or not; however, he must have it. He has eaten so much that he has gained 1.5 pounds in 3 weeks. Wow, gotta love the fattie.







3. And, most importantly, Andrew James now crawls. He crawls so hard. He crawls so fast. Hence, I am losing my precious blogging time. For, although this blog began on October 14, I am finally getting the videos added on November 8. Wow! So, almost a month has past, and I am finally posting it. How's that for a timely glimpse into Andrew's life.



He's napping at this very moment, so cross your fingers for enough time to at least catch you up through the end of October....


We shall see!


Bonus! What's this? Extra Andrew footage?! Yes, it's your lucky day. So, he does 4 things, but I don't really know know what the 4th is... You be the judge.
