New developments

Tristan is:
– beginning to try sitting up on his own, but it looks sort of like a frog-squat where his hands are on the floor
– holding his own legs up while on the changing table, in diaper-changing position
– getting random tiny amounts of formula mixed into his milk to begin the switchover process, and starting to take it well

We bought his first rice cereal today, but we’re not going to give it to him quite yet. Soon, though. I think we want him happy with taking formula first (though we still have 7 weeks to get that working properly if we need).

We’re contemplating getting him a bathtub seat tomorrow. We did his last two baths by having James pass Tristan to me while I was in the tub and having me wash him there. He seemed to enjoy it a bit more than sitting in the baby tub – then again, these baths were also a bit earlier in the day than we usually have done his baby tub baths. I want to experiment with taking Tristan in the shower with me and he’s now old enough for the baby bath seats that sort of hook in.

We’ve started his second month of reading education DVDs, and he’s really starting to enjoy watching them. Of course, he doesn’t do anything with the information that we can see, but at the very least it’s something fun for him.
