Recently.....

John Harrison riding his train

John Harrison is such a sweet little boy. It is so much fun to have a happy boy who sleeps well....quite a contrast to the first 10-11 months of his life!! This morning, instead of crying, he was making happy noises and saying "mama" when he woke up. His internal alarm clock goes off every morning around 6:15 --- mine has started going off at 5:55 in anticipation of him getting up, I guess. I really enjoy the mornings with my little boy....he is still with parents or a babysitter most days while David and I work, but that should be wrapping up soon. I think that John Harrison is in a growth spurt because all of the sudden, he started eating a lot more at each meal. He still takes three bottles a day and eats three meals a day. This morning, he had scrambled eggs and oatmeal for breakfast. He loves beef, fruit, and cheese, but doesn't like vegetables. It is funny because he used to love his veggies. Fresh pears are his absolute favorite food! He also likes peaches, so I am looking forward to giving him fresh peaches this summer. He doesn't seem to like anything slightly tart, though---(strawberries, etc.). David loves to play with John Harrison and tell him that he is going to "get him." John Harrison has started saying something that resembles "getcha, getcha"--it is really cute! Last weekend, David's grandmother came into town and we celebrated Lisa Marie's (my sister-in-law) birthday. While we were trying to take pictures, John Harrison was quite squirmy and kept reaching over and poking the pink icing on Lisa Marie's cake. It was pretty funny to see the look on his face when his finger reached his mouth---I guess it brought back memories of his only other experience with cake back in March. Happy Birthday, Lisa Marie--we love you so much!
