And here he is finishing up the cereal!

Leo loves cereal

On Thursday, I basically got bored and decided to try Leo on cereal again. I had planned on trying again on his 5 month birthday, but I figured 4 days early wasn't a big deal. Well! I think he's ready. What do you think?

Leo celebrates his Scottish/Irish heritage in the swing. I tried to teach him how to entertain himself with a drum, but he was more interested in eating his "drum".

5 minutes later, he was screaming his head off. Poor baby. He's running a low grade fever and I can feel 5 separate sharp areas below his gums!

Poor Leo. All morning he would fuss unless Mommy entertained him. I was singing, dancing, you name it. Once I was out of his line of vision, chaos - or at least extreme fussiness - ensued. Leo and I revisited the swing he loved so much as a newborn, and experimented with the music settings. As long as he could see me, he was all smiles!

Leo & his proud Nonna

Well, Nonna was here for a week and left this morning. It was so great to have her! It rained for much of the weekend, and Leo and I ended up doing a lot of this:

Well. That's something.
