He crawls up a storm. His poor little forehead is covered with bruises from running into things. He's also fallen into the playroom twice. (Its a step down and gating it off isn't really possible.)
He can easily pull to standing and has mastered a controlled sit, the kind where he lands on his bottom rather than falling all the way backwards.
He loves to jump. He'll jump in his exersaucer or in the doorway jumper at Kathleen's. If he's excited he'll jump his little bottom up and down while sitting and laughing. It is fabulous!
Richie definitely understands the word "no". The other day he was trying to get into the cat food and I said no to him. He sat there and started crying because he really really wanted to play in the cat dishes but wasn't allowed to. I doubt that phase will last.
He eats more solid food than puree now. His absolute favorite food is graham crackers, which just make a nasty mess. In this picture he's eating a delicacy known as "buttered toast". (Whole wheat, of course.) He is also enjoying pears. Last night he ate chicken breast and pears for dinner.
In terms of clothes he wears either 6-9 month clothes (which fit well) or 6-12 month clothes which are a bit roomy.
Doctor appointment in a few weeks will give us a weight check.
