Baby Bean: Indiana

Great to be back in the Hoosier state! It was nice having a few weeks off work together after the move. Bonnie has been back to work for a week now and really likes it, I start in 3 days at Lincoln. Sam is changing every day, at 8.5 months here are a few things going on..

-Teething! First white spike emerged about 2 weeks ago, others are on the way. Two nights ago was probably his worst sleeping night since the hospital.

-Yesterday he started throwing his hands up in the air. Not sure what it means but we love it. Working on waving, has done it a few times

-Crawling is getting faster but still army style

-Has started pulling himself up more, our next purchase will be a leather ottoman for more practice. Can stand up with a little support but his huge head makes it harder to balance

-Eating- Loves every food. And he eats a ton. Bangs the table when he wants more (see youtube). Sweet potatoes, green beans, avocado, black beans, broccoli, carrots, wild turkey (guess where that came from?), cheerios, bananas come to mind, I’m sure there has been more

-Swimming- Loves the pool. Got him a float the other day that he is warming up to

-Sleeping- Still doing good overall considering the teething. Pretty much have him down to a two nap a day routine, probably averages sleeping from 9 pm to 8 am but that varies a bit

Lots more going on I’ll add as many captions as I can. Pictures will go back to Atlanta, I'll try to throw some captions up on most

Spent our last weekend down South in the Highlands, NC at Chris and Brittany's wedding

Both sets of parents came down and packed a truck and trailer, many many thanks again. We 'camped' the last few weeks in ATL in our empty house and drove the grand prix up on July 4th.
