Some of my favorite new things that Nixon is doing are as follows.
-He will reach for me to pick him up, especially out of his jumper.
-He puts his feet in his mouth and sucks on his toes.
-He likes to play peek-a-boo- with a blanket. I will cover up his face with a blanket and say, "Where's Nixon?", then pull it off (or Nixon will try to pull it off) and I'll say, "There he is." Nixon will smile real big and kick his legs with excitement.
-His does the wiggle. When laying on his back he will move his upper body and arms opposite his lower body and legs.
-He's ticklish now. You can tickle him under his arms and he will giggle the cutest giggle ever.
We tried to give Nixon rice cereal. The first few times I tried to feed him he kind of ate a little bit, but didn't seem too interested. After a few times, I had Trav give it a try. Nixon ate up the whole bowl full. Then I tried a few more times after that and he did not want it at all. At first he would taste a little bit, but then he started opening his mouth and kind of gagging and spitting it out with the funniest face. So we have now started on vegetables. We've tried green beans and he is starting to understand how to swallow the food.
Nixon's sleeping has improved!! YEAH! Getting excited about the small victories.
