What will it be?

For Christmas, Aunt Monica & Uncle Ryan got Sean an egg that you put in water for a couple of days until it hatches. The egg could contain several different animals including an alligator, turtle, or dinosaur (there were others, I just can't remember). It was fun for Sean to wait for his egg to hatch and he got so excited each day as the egg started to crack more and more. It was also a good exercise in teaching him patience. His egg hatched after a couple of days and it was an alligator!

Ryan is getting so big; it seems like yesterday that he was just a little baby. He can sit up on his own for a few minutes and then starts to lose balance. He loves playing with toys and he loves things with buttons. He gets really excited when he sees the remote control or the telephone. We've moved him into the highchair to eat and play now because he kept trying to get out of the Bumbo chair. He's moved onto stage 2 foods and enjoys trying new foods. I don't think we'll be able to keep him away from other foods for long because he just stares at whatever we are eating and gets excited. He goes to the doctor in a couple of weeks for his 6 month appointment so I will be sure to post his stats. Oh, and for his sleeping habits... he has adjusted to taking naps in his crib and does good on most days. However, he still isn't a great sleeper at night! I pray he will just start sleeping through the night very soon!
