More Firsts!

The last couple of weeks have been an exciting time of many new firsts for Crawford!  Last week he semi-started waving bye-bye when we leave in the morning.  Most times it looks more like a salute to Hitler, but it will come with time. 

He is definitely starting to babble - and mamamamama was his FIRST!!!  Actually the only right now, but I'm sure dada is coming soon.  He definitely loves his daddy and in fact really whines when he leaves the room!! 

He also starting eating meats last week.  I'm not sure how long this is going to last - he has tried turkey and lamb.  The picture below shows how much he loves turkey!  I think he is going to be one of those people that can't eat things because of thier texture!!  I may have to cheat and just buy the baby food meat, although that completely grosses me out, so we just have to forgo the meat until he has teeth and give him real meat.



And, perfect timing because his first little tooth just started breaking the surface last night!  I have thought he was teething for about 6 months now, so I am so excited to actually see that one is on it's way up! 

To go along with his first tooth, he has also gotten his first cold!  I feel so bad for the baby, he is so snotty, but doesn't seem to be feeling bad.  I think (I know) we have been extremely lucky that this is his first time being sick.  Thank you God!

He is also bathing exclusively in the big boy tub, climbing stairs, and pushing around his red wagon!




In other news, we are still working on the "new" house and hope to be in by end of June.  We thought our house sold, but found out Monday night that they were backing out!  So we are back to being real estate agents.  I am really bummed, but am trying to take it in stride.  Kyle just sent me an email that says: "10% of life is made up of what happens to you and 90% of life is decided by how you react.  So, that is what I am  trying to remember!!
