Bouncy, Bouncy!

Britton is finally getting the hang of his bouncy seat after a few weeks. He's finally tall/heavy enough for both feet to touch the ground, and both he and I have realized this thing could be seriously entertaining for quite some time. I'm sure when he learns that he can spin himself around in it, the entertainment (and my sanity!) will be even more prolonged! Here's a funny video from last night.

PS-He's also responding to his name most of the time now, which is really exciting!

Over the River...

We are back from a very successful trip to Vermont and upstate New York . Britton was awesome on the plane, which was a huge relief. We were in Battleboro, VT for two days for a work trip, which was my first time in the Green State. We drove into Saratoga Springs for a night, which is probably my favorite place north of the Mason Dixon line! We hit the tracks for the races and placed a few (losing) bets and ate some fried dough. From there, we headed into St. J'ville for a few days at Uncle John's house and to spend some time with Justin's grandmother. I always love that place because it runs at such a different pace than Orlando, which is a nice break for both Justin and I. We drove up to Old Forge for a night with friends, which was a great time as well. Unfortunately the weather didn't really cooperate to go on the lake, but we had a great time anyways. All together, it was a great trip, and very encouraging for future travel with the Man.

4 Months Old!

Britton turned 4 months old on Saturday, and it's been an eventful weekend. Friday was his checkup, and he weighed 14 lbs, 7 oz (40th percentile) and was 24 in long (30th percentile). He didn't cry much at all when he got his shots, but it's made him pretty cranky all weekend.
The doctor gave us the okay to start cereal as well, so we tried that today for the first time. I thought for sure he'd love it, but it was a bit of a challenge! I think he got about 3 swallows down, most of it just came right back out and ended up smeared all over him. I don't know if he didn't like the taste, or it's just a little too much to handle all together, but we're going to keep trying each evening. I've posted a video, and one more to come soon!
