A Month of Milestones!


I can't get over how big my sweet boy is getting!  All the moving and shaking on his back has paid off this month.  Gabriel has become quite a good sitter.  I can now put him in a shopping cart without him slumping over to one side.  He sits very well on his own but I do put a pillow wall behind him for the times he decides he wants to flail his body back.  I don't what him to have any brain damage ;-) 


Finally Gabe is rolling back to tummy!  He rolls all over his play-mat, it has really eased his frustration because now he can reach the toys no matter where I put them.
We decided to teach Gabriel to use a cup before a sippy cup.  It seems to be working, he just doesn't like to put it down.  I just put a small amount in the cup so there is no huge mess when he turns it upside down.  He has only let it spill once or twice though.  The goal is for him to be comfortable with it by his first birthday.  I think we can do it!
