Bikin' and Trikin'

The quick growth spurts are over and he is now progressing at a fairly normal rate. He is now over triple his birth weight, but I doubt he will be triple again in another 7 months. He is eating a mixture of baby food, formula, and breast milk. Although the official weaning won't take place for another few months he is getting more and more used to eating from a spoon. He has now eaten carrots, bananas, green beans, peaches, apples, corn, sweet potatoes, chicken, turkey, beef, peas, and of course rice cereal.

He is now taking swimming lessons at the Y. There's no real swimming, mainly just getting used to the water, but he seems to like most of it. They always want us to dunk him just once and he always hates that. But he loves chasing after the little floaty toys. You can throw a toy in front of him a few feet and he kicks into action to chase after it.
