He's sitting up!

Over the past week, Nico has really begun to gain control over his upper body. He's been sitting up supported pretty well lately, so tonight we decided to see how he'd do all on his own. He could actually sit by himself! Of course, he's still a little wobbly, but he's getting there. He's just growing up so fast! Here he is, showing off.

That only lasted a minute though. Luckily I was there to break the fall.

Unfortunately we didn't catch the face plant into the carpet on film. He was fine, no crying at all.
I think he was watching T.V. in this one.

He was doing really well in this one.


All of this was after our event filled dinner. John and I were eating at the table and Nico was sitting in his swing there in the kitchen with us. (Just a warning, this may be too much information for some!) Now, it's important to know that he had not pooped all day. Normally, he has a poop first thing in the morning, but not today. So as we're getting started with dinner, Nico starts making some grunting noises so I knew it was coming. Then came the poop noises. John was like, "Whoa! That sounded bad!" Oh yeah, it was bad. It was a major poosplosion. We never have poop blowouts with our cloth diapers, but today we did. All over his wool cover, of course, and on the swing too. Needless to say, we stopped dinner and went to change a baby. I then had to wash the wool so it wouldn't stain and then re-lanolize it. We had to take the cover off the swing, treat it with Bac-Out, and throw it in the wash. Of course, by the time we finished with all of that, the soup I made for dinner was actually cool enough to eat. Needless to say, Nico had been saving that poop up all day! Let's hope we have a normal one tomorrow morning!
