I can't believe it's been so long since I've written about Bowen. I guess I've been too busy playing with him and mothering him and watching him grow. He amazes me every day. I'm sitting here feeding him while he's in the highchair. At the moment it's puffs, mango and cottage cheese. I'm cracking up because he's currently working really hard on making a poo. I love his poo face!!
He's at such an amazing age. So fun. He had his first real bath tonight - no bath chair. He sits up so well that I decided to just lay a towel on the bottom of the tub, for friction mostly, and filled it a couple of inches. He had soooo much fun! He had a couple of toys and he just had a blast splashing and exploring. He hasn't quite realized that he is the one that splashes all of the water in his face. It's too cute. Lately one of his favorite games is to crawl over to me and blow zerbits on my arm. He'll do it for 5 minutes at a time if I let him. I'm usually soaking wet by the time he's done. His bottom two teeth are coming in - they've cut through, but are still really tiny. I'm pretty sure that his top two are on their way - I see little bulges on his gums and he's cranky. And by cranky, I mean that he whines a little here and there because really, he's just the happiest baby. I love him more and more every day. He's been trying to pull himself up on stuff lately, too. He's so incredible mobile. I just can't believe how fast it all goes. Also, it seems like it's just been in the past week or so that he's really advanced. He's not crawling on hands and knees - it's more of a fast army crawl. I have a feeling that he's going to skip the whole crawling thing and just go from the army crawl to walking. We'll see, won't we.
