Yummy Yummy

Jacob and I had a wonderful time visiting grandparents in Montreal. It was a really relaxed week, but also a week of discovery for Jacob! He learned how to balance himself in his play saucer and reach for the toys he wanted, and his personality really began to blossom with more smiles and giggles. While we were visiting, I noticed that Jacob was increasingly more interested in my food, and would study me when I brought something to my mouth. So, when we got home, Paul went out and bought Jacob his first baby cereal! It was a messy start, but now, only 4 days into it, he is opening his mouth wide and Mmmming while he eats:) It's so cute to see him grow!

On the road again

Today Jacob and I are packing up the car full of baby gear and heading to Montreal to visit Grandma and Grandpa Best. It has been a couple of months since we were there last, so it will be fun to see their reactions to how much Jacob has grown! Lately, I find myself looking at him in awe, wondering where the time has gone and how big he is. This week will mark 5 months already! Here he is all bundled up to go outside in a suit that is for 6-9 months!

Bumbo

It took me too long to decide to get one of these. Jacob could have been using it for 2 months already, but I'm so cheap that I had to keep convincing myself that it was a good purchase until I finally believed it. The final selling point was that it has a really good resale value-should I ever decide to part with it. Right now though, it's our new favorite thing:)

Jacob was more excited about the box than his new Bumbo!Hangin' Out
