Changes, changes

It amazes me each day, week, month that we spend with Bo how much he changes.  It seems as though the past couple of weeks he has become this whole new baby!  Bottle feedings are now a full contact sport, he eats so well with a spoon, he can sit up and "dance" on his own like he has been doing it forever, he grabs everything in site, and when he learns something new it 'sticks' with him!   He has also learned to shake his head which is quite comical!  I know it may seem ridiculous, but he doesn't seem like my little baby anymore!  I feel like he is no longer a guessing game and we can communicate in our own way.

It is so funny to watch him before he eats.  He gets super excited and pounds his hands on the tray.  You can see his eyes light up and his mouth opens even before you get a chance to sit down:).  He now eats proteins (Chicken and Turkey), loves almost every fruit (except bananas when they are by themselves), and still loves his veggies!  He is a good little eater.  He is eating 'solids' twice a day still, a fruit with 4 tbsp of cereal in late morning (1130is) followed by a bottle (eats 3-6 oz) and a veggie or protein at night with 4tbsp of cereal followed by a bottle (4-8 oz).  He is getting so good with the spoon too, he is starting to grab it every time you use it:).  Of course I have a video to show you of him eating...

He is a growing boy and I love watching his personality develop!

Our little fishy!

We had a very busy Memorial Day weekend!  While Josh went golfing Bo and I went to Jaxon's bam bam ball game and then followed up by going to the swimming pool for the first time with Jenna and Jax!  Bo loves bath time so I was very excited to take him to the pool.  I was a little worried about him not liking the temperature of the water, but it was very mild and he loved every second of it!  I think he is going to love the water like his mommy and daddy!  Looks like another boat will be in our future! 

Bo made a friend!

future heart breakers!

he was tuckered out!

the humidity might've taken a toll on his hair:)

The next day (Sunday) we decided to take Bo to the Des Moines Zoo.  Neither Josh or I had gone before so we thought we would check it out.  We both grew up going to the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, so we didn't know what to expect for this one.  I can say that we are definitely spoiled with the Omaha Zoo!!  The Des Moines Zoo is good for about an hour of entertainment, whereas the Omaha Zoo you can maybe get through everything in a day!!  But needless to say, we had fun as a family (other than it being pretty hot that morning) and Bo enjoyed looking at the monkeys, his favorite!

The following weekend Josh went to Riverside for a golf tourney so my mom came up on Saturday and we did some shopping for the house and then on Sunday we went to the police pool so Josh and my mom could see our little fishy in action! Bo, once again, loved the water!  We got him a little floaty that he could sit in since the water is a little deeper at this pool.  I know Josh really enjoyed playing with him in the water.  I enjoyed watching them:).
