Starting solid food

Last week Bryson turned six months old. It's so hard to believe. He's getting around pretty good.

Just today he crawled off his blanket in the living room around the corner into the dining room chasing one of his favorite balls. I guess it's about time to childproof and actually clean the floors regularly. 

We also started letting him play with a little food. We're trying baby-led weaning where they feed themselves from the beginning. The motto is "Food before one is just for fun." I think it's going pretty well. Although I did feed him a pouch of purple fruits I got for free as a sample. 

We started with sweet potatoes, asparagus, avocado and banana. I think he loves the feel of the sweet potatoes between his fingers. He squishes them around and then sucks a little off his fingers.

Scott's mom also started watching Bryson on Wednesdays and Thursdays so I can work during the day.  Last week his cousins Faith and Carter came over to play too.

Yesterday I ended up getting some cute shots of him. I had him dressed in one of his tie onesies that my friends made at my baby shower. I sat him in the laundry tub while I was starting a load. It was really cute, so I decided to get a few shots.
