It’s been a while!

Just thought I’d give everyone an update on how baby JJ and family are doing. JJ is transforming into a more goregeous little boy each day that passes by. He’s 10 1/2 months old now. When you slick his hair back, he really looks  a lot like John. He is still eating broccoli, which amazes me since it is green. He eats it plain for grandma and Brittney, disguised in fruit for the babysitter and for me, only when he wants to. He’s turned into a picky eater for me and will only take cereal and maybe fruit from me. He’s still not walking, little booger. He has gotten so quick while crawling that I think he figures out, “What do I need to walk on my legs for?” After all, he’s been crawling for almost 5 months now and he’s been cruising for about 2 1/2. He just doesn’t seem to have the confidence to let go.  One night I decided that I was going to try a technique for night weaning. I’ve heard that if you make their middle of the night feeding 10 minutes or so later each night until it runs into the morning feeding, that they’ll eventually stop wanting it. Well, the night I decided to do that, he never woke up for his feeding and the same thing has happened 3 nights in a row. Yay! I’ve figured that the key to doing this is not letting him snack during the evening so he is extra hungry at bedtime and gets more full to last him longer. Seems to be working. **fingers crossed**
