Look Who's Sitting Pretty....

Its offical- Ari is now sitting on his own unsupported. I can not believe how much he has changed in the 5 months that he has been here with us. Ryan and I are always in awe of how it seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital-



He is learning so much and getting so smart. Currently Ari has an obsession with all things relating to drinking(no he's not an alcoholic) he is fascinated with cups, bottles, sippys, soda cans, etc. It is adorable - he watches us like crazy when we have a drink and as soon as we put it down he reaches for it. When we do give him CLOSED soda bottles or empty cups he is so smart with them and knows exactly what to do with them. He puts it up to his mouth and pretends to drink. We have given him a little breast milk in a cup and he did do relatively well drinking with assistance. Oh, my little boy is getting SO big. And in a few short weeks were going to start on solids- yikes



Ari loves sitting - and he is a pro at it!!!!!



We recently went to the Zoo for our very first visit - all in all it was a good day!





Okay funny thing about the picture with Ari in the Lion's mouth- (if you couldn't tell - its a lion's mouth he is sitting in) - so the big lion is actually a bubbler (a drinking fountain for all of you not from Wisconsin) and when we decided to take the picture Ryan said "don't get Ari wet" Well I thought that I had him sitting on the very edge of the lions mouth where it was dry but apparently his bum was still getting wet- after the picture Ari's entire bum was soaked- but he was such a trooper about it - it didn't bother him the whole day!
