On London Time

Found a cup with handles finally! This one has a sippy cup top option...so we thought we would give it a try. He did awesome with the motion. But seemed confused on why he was getting cold breastmilk in a cup! hahaha He still prefers straight out of the tap :)

Took london for his first meeting with his great grandma betty :) He was smitten by her of course. Plus she seemed to have the magic touch with the rocking chair.

London's first time in the pool. He did pretty good but the water was a little chilly for him so he only stayed in for about 30 min.

My brother, Hershall finally got to meet his nephew...

Grandma Rabenberg (aka Mimi) arrived on wed and stayed through today! She bought London a WHOLE new wardrobe for the next few months (depending on how fast he grows!). So you will notice new outfits on him in up coming pictures. He looks more like a baby now than a newborn. I think I was keeping him in onesies all the time because he felt/looked more newborn that way. But not any more...now he is my little man.

London decided to start sitting up not only on his own but now without his hands helping him like a tripod! And he found his feet! He has been very busy. No more rolling since monday though.

We got up most of the holiday decorations this weekend also. It was nice to see london's first Christmas ornament up on the tree (its a little cloth diaper with embroidery on it of a snowman and "London's 1st Christmas 2009". Can't wait to get our Hallmark one from Great Grandma Yungbluth as well! We plan to get him one every year that has something to do with that year (or in this case months). Also our "Elf on the Shelf" came in. We decided to call him Pepper Minsticks (says it fast LOL). London loves to have the story read to him every day. He hasn't quit learned to love "How the Grinch stole Christmas"....I think its a little long for him.

Today we were playing and london rolled from his belly to his back (over the left arm/leg). I got him to roll over just like I did the dogs.....having him "chase" a toy! :D The toy was a rattle that Derek and Kendra got for him.

We decided to try to get london to sit up by himself tonight. Well he did on his first try!!! I couldn't be prouder....AND we think he did it so he could watch football...even better :)
