We’ve thrown our one at a time food deal out the window, and we’ve just started giving Jonah little bits of this and that. I even tore a peach into chunks and put him in his high chair to eat it yesterday! He almost choked once. He didn’t understand why the peach didn’t magically make it into his mouth without his hand. He sucked on the tray of the high chair quite a bit, getting angry when it didn’t satisfy like a chunk of peach. He made a HUGE mess. First peach AND first high chair: pretty much a success!

You guys: he is SO big. He’s talking and babbling like a chatterbox (OMG – I hope he’s SO chatty when he starts talking real words). He’s such a charmer with his coy smiles and intense staring. And with it all, his drama is soaring. Showell. We had to figure he’d be a little emotional, given that we’re two sensitive Sallys.

His current favorite pastime is going for walks. He doesn’t do any of the walking, but he thoroughly enjoys a trip around the neighborhood in the stroller. He’ll occasionally fall asleep, but he mostly stays awake to take it all in. Fall is in full effect here (oddly enough), so the weather is PERFECT for walks. Still warm enough to work up a sweat and wear shorts, but cool enough that it’s never miserable.

I leave you with this adorable face.
