Advancements

Finnegan has been very active the past couple of weeks.
He has been rolling around for two weeks and now he wants to walk. He loves to stand up and walk while Doug or I hold his torso. He looks so cute when he's padding across the floor and he's quite excited about it.

I had a dream last night that he wrestled himself from my grip and ran across the kitchen floor. I've been told that some babies don't go through the crawling stage and walk early. I wonder what Finnegan will do?

Another thing that I've noticed is that he's active with his Exer saucer which he just hated until about a month ago. I guess he wasn't ready for it. But, it seems that once he hit the six-month mark he was ready to do some many things. He can now do the following:

1. eat solids.
2. stand up.
3. almost sit up on his own.
4. eat biscuits.
5. drink from a cup.
6. watches the dogs intently.
7. sits forward in his stroller.
8. falls asleep very quickly.
9. his ecxema is almost cleared up.
10. vocalizes all the time.
11. He knows his name and responds to it.
12. He's very mischievious and a flirt.
13. Can grasp small items with his fingers, loves zippers and tags.
