Friends and food


Two major milestones for us this month: friends and food. Alex has started developing friendships with his stuffed toys -- Oso (the white bear that Nana gave him for Christmas 2006), Tummy (the talking puppy Senior and GrandTerr gave him for Christmas 2007), and Brown Dog (a gift from the Lefkowitzs.) Here is Alex sleeping with Brown Dog in his signature 'butt up' position. We frequently wake to him babbling to Brown Dog--at 5am!--about his dreams.


Alex also loves feeding himself. He consistently refused a bottle for 9 months, but now happily gives himself milk through a sippy cup. In the video below he is eating Cheerios--another favorite--with his sippy cup. Yippee!
