And We're Mobile

I re-read my last post and Reid was really close to crawling at that time.  Well, he continued to push himself up to sitting a lot.  Then he figured out that he could barrel roll to get from point A to point B and then push himself up to sitting to play.  About a week later, he was crawling.  And every day he got faster and faster.  Now, at 7 months, not only is he crawling, but he is pulling himself up to standing!  It's all going so fast!

Reid has been teething with his top teeth.  We've felt the little bump, but nothing has cut yet.  These teeth have bothered him a lot more than the bottom teeth.  He's been fussier and it's disrupted his sleep.  He's had a little fever now and then as well.  We didn't really have any symptoms with the bottom two except all the drool.

A few weeks ago Reid got a cold and was really snotty.  Then one day I get a call from daycare that they think he might have pink eye and we had to get him.  So Ryan took him to the doctor and sure enough, he had the beginnings of pink eye.  We caught it really early though.  We've been having to give Reid eye drops three times a day until the little bottle is gone.  I swear that bottle is never ending because this weekend will be 3 weeks and we're still not done yet!  So Reid had a cold with a cough, and I ended up getting bronchitis from it, and Ryan got a really sore throat and lost his voice.  After a week I went to the doctor and got diagnosed and got some meds.  I still have a little residual gunk in my chest, but I'm much better.  Ryan regained his voice after about 4-5 days, and luckily the sore throat didn't last too long.

They did pictures at daycare a few weeks ago.  I got a sneak peek on the photographers website and Reid is adorable (of course!).  He's the cutest baby of them all ;-)  When we order and receive the pictures, I will post one.

Ryan and I celebrated our four year wedding anniversary on the 25th.  We didn't really do much on that Friday, but on Saturday we both made a special dinner.  Ryan made stuffed cornish hens, and I made squash and creamy mushroom soup.  For dessert, Ryan made a tiramisu.  It was delicious. 

On Sunday evening, Reid had his first birthday party to attend.  One of the little boys in his daycare class was turning 1, and his mom is one of the teachers at the daycare.  She did a really nice job with the party; it was Dr. Seuss themed.  There was another little boy from daycare named Carson who played with Reid.  It was funny to see them interact.  Reid gets so excited and started shrieking and crawling toward Carson.  It was so cute.

This weekend I'm going to try to take Reid to the pool for the first time.  I'm so excited.  I really hope he likes it.  Guess I need to run out and get some swimwear for him.

Here's some fun pictures :-)
