Getting so big

Bryce has been sitting up for weeks now. He is at that great age where I can set him down in the living room with a few toys and he will happily play with them for quite some time. Which makes it much easier for me when Kelly is gone now so that I can feed Cason and get a bite to eat myself without worrying about touching Bryce with peanut butter on my hands or something like that.

But shortly after he started sitting up, he tried doing it in his baby bathtub too. He would practically flip himself out of the tub because he did not want to be reclined any longer. So I ordered a bath ring. I never needed one with Cason but it has been worth every penny now that I have two kids. Bryce loves sitting up and splashing and trying to grab any toy that comes within reach. Sadly, he only plays with any given bath toy for a few seconds before Cason snatches it away. We're still working on sharing and taking turns!













We also started Bryce on oatmeal. This usually involves two spoons because he snatches one out of my hand and chews on it so I have to use a second one to get some food in his mouth.



Here is what usually happens when I have to put Bryce in his bouncy seat. He will stay like this for a few minutes until he finally gives up and lies back.



And Bryce's favorite activity is the jumperoo. Cason always liked the jumperoo as a baby but Bryce loves it so much more. If he is cranky, I put him in there and he is instantly all smiles. He also likes to jump up and down while standing on my lap or on the floor. I was trying to get some video of him jumping but Cason was trying to upstage him. I don't know the song he was singing but he said it is from church and he kept saying "Jesus is MY MY king!"

I love how much Bryce loves the jumper! His laugh is so cute and Cason is quite the little singer. Miss you guys!
