A couple of weeks ago we tried to give Braden a drink from a sippy cup and we were unsuccesful. He did like to bite on it, but it was just a toy at that time. So I read in my trusty developmental book to put some juice in it and try again. So we dipped the sippy end into the juice to see if that would intice him to suck- and it did!!! Our little boy took his first drink from the sippy cup:)
He is so stinkin adorable!!
We started feeding him in the big boy highchair a couple weeks ago and he is doing great! Once we put him in the chair he knows exactly what is coming. He gets a big smile on his face and can't wait for his yummy food! He is growing up so fast!!!
We took him for his 6 month checkup yesterday and the boy is growing like a weed!! He weighed 20.4 pounds (95%) and was 29.75 inches long (off the charts)- he is going to be one tall boy! The doctor said he is looking great and has hit all of his major milestones for his age:) He also got all of his vaccinations, plus his first Flu shot. We go back in a month for his 2nd Flu shot. He did great- just a few tears when he first got the shots, but I picked him up and he was smiling and flirting with the nurses. What a little hamball:) He has been the ideal child ever since he got his tubes. He is always happy and very laid back. He likes everyone and keeps us very entertained. He truly is the best thing that has ever happend to us and we cherish every second with him!!

What a cutie. We're doing the sippy cup thing now too. Gavin loves it, and also loves the high chair.
Aren't these boys HUGE???? At the doctor last month, G was 21 lbs 12 oz. No wonder I've got a backache every night! I'll get his height next week when he gets his check up. He couldn't have the shots at 6 months because of the ear infections.
So glad he's feeling great with the tubes. I bet the world just seems better to him now!
He is very long! I can't wait to see where AJ is at his next appt. Isn't it fun?
That is so cute on the sippy cup. He sure is a doll!
