Jack has been busy this last month. A couple of weeks ago I was in the kitchen getting lunch ready and Eli yelled to me "Mommy, Jack is standing!". I came running in to see him standing up against the couch. It wasn't long enough for me to snap a picture but it was so exciting!
Yay! Look at my new skill Mommy!
He hasn't figured out how to (gracefully) sit down from standing yet but he does take side to side steps while holding onto furniture. He's getting quite fast.
He has also finally started to eat some real food! He really likes shredded chicken, crumbled ground beef, tiny strawberry bits, and these gluten free blueberry muffins I make frequently. He's pretty good with chewing really tiny bites but still gags occasionally. He does not care for purees. He is also starting to get the hang of the sippy cup. He loves to open his mouth after he takes a drink and let's it all spill out...for that reason he mostly drinks water still. I gave him milk once before and he just kept spitting it out. It's kinda frustrating but all part of the learning process I suppose.

He is such a cutie. He will be running before you know it. He seems to eat more than Eli did at this age.
Actually it's mind boggling how much MORE Eli ate at this age. He was eating waffles and pancakes, pasta, yogurt, soups...Jack has my sensitive tummy I'm afraid. Yogurt seems to bother him and eggs. Like I said we've hardly tried milk but that might bother him too
