Big Boy Bath

So we decided to give Jacob a "big boy" bath, since, you know....he is 6 months old now, so that qualifies him as a "big boy". hahaha But in all seriousness, he is sitting up on his own pretty well these days and loves being on his belly, kicking his legs, so I thought he might enjoy splashing around in the tub and............ He LOVED it! 

I know, I know.....based on this picture, you're probably thinking, yeah right, doesn't look like he loved it.

Here's the thing, he loved it SO much that he was splashing around and ended up doing a face plant into the water, hence this lovely picture! Anyway, as you'll see in the following pictures, he had a blast and now I think the baby spa tube has just become yet another thing for us to put into storage.

 And so, to catch everyone up and what's new with Jacob & mommy... 

Jacob is now eating baby food 3 times a day! He is not a picky eater, thank goodness and has tried carrots, pears, peaches, apples, butternut squash, winter squash, prunes, peas, spinach, sweet potatoes and pumpkin. So far the only one he doesn't really care for is peas, so I think we're doing pretty well!

Mommy has been officially weaned from the pump and Jacob from nursing. It is bitter sweet. Although I am not sad to see the pump go into storage, I have to admit that I do miss nursing. I am a bit surprised by this emotion b/c it was a rather stressful thing for me in the beginning. But by the end, Jacob and I were pro's and I am going to miss the snuggly, quite time, that breastfeeding had become for me and my son. 

Last of all, this little man of ours loves to be on his belly and is constantly rolling over and pushing himself up onto his hands and knees! This habit of his, has made diaper changes oh so much fun for mommy and daddy!
