Sitting by himself

He's sitting up!  Tuesday I sat ec in front of the VTech "Sit to Stand Learning Walker," and he sat there, unassisted, for probably fifteen minutes playing with the various objects on the front panel.  Flashing lights, music, voices, lots to intrigue a curious mind.  Granted, he more or less flails at it since his small motor skills are not well-developed, but he clearly had fun.  (When he's older he'll be able to walk with it.)  I guess my sitting behind him on the floor reading to him or handing him toys wasn't exciting enough to make him want to sit alone.  Or perhaps everything worked together just right all at once.  Wednesday he sat some more, when he was awake; he took two, two-hour naps.

He continues to enjoy his solid food.  So far he's had avocado, yams, peaches, zucchini, pea soup, squash, and banana (not quite in that order).  And he usually finishes his bottle quickly, with steady drinking.
