Dadadada and blueberries

Some new(ish) things to note, since I am *so horrible* about updating y'all:

1. Owen often gives hugs & kisses.  It is AWESOME.
2. He seems to have gigantic holes in his two front teeth!!!  I can't tell what on earth they are; they don't look like cavities, and we brush his teeth after each feeding, and he's only had these teeth for less than 3 months!!!  Has anybody else had this happen?
3. Owen sings to us, to himself, to anything.  Is is just...the sweetest, most precious thing.
4. I am still sleep deprived.  I will probably be so for the foreseeable future.  People can say what they want, but I won't have him cry it out.  I just won't.

Here's a list of the solid foods Owen's had so far:

• bananas
• blueberries
• apples
• pears
• sweet potatoes
• peas
• avocados
• rice cereal

I'm bragging, I know, but I am so proud to say that I've cooked and pureed ALL OF THESE and have bought NO baby food for his belly!!  I'm also glad to say it's all been organic.  But for those who know me, that's not a surprise since I'm kind of...militant about it.

His favorite so far?  It's hard to tell.  He likes all food!!!  He hasn't had the bananas for a long time because he's had trouble not pooping afterward.  (Same with the rice cereal.  I don't know.  It's hard to imagine moving from 1 feeding a day when he gets so constipated with some of these foods.)  The blueberries were fun because I put them in a teething bag while they were still frozen and he totally loved it.  And they died his fingers and face.  And I have a video.  It is Awesome.

He babbles all of the time!!!  It's funny because when we go out, he's quieter because he's used to a small household.  So people think he's a quiet baby until he gets going, and then they're shocked.  I think Brant's going to win on the 'first word' contest, because Owen babbles dadadadada all day long (along with bababa  and all sorts of other words), but he hasn't learned the 'm' sound yet.  So no 'mama.'   I console myself with the fact that he doesn't know he's saying dadda when he looks at Brant and says it...but he will soon, and I know I've lost.

Happy Owen eating blueberries :)
