Ian is such a little guy - seeing him next to other babies at daycare puts that into perspective for me. There is a five month old baby that is bigger than he is! That's ok - it means he still fits into clothes from months ago. We are in the strange in between stage between six month clothes and nine month clothes. Today he has on a six month outfit but the pants ride up a bit when he flexes his legs. Monday he had on a nine month outfit and the pants were so big they got rolled up three times. That fifth tooth is just about through the gums. Ian likes having his teeth brushed. It must feel good on the gums. He is also grinding his teeth together. It makes a very unpleasant sound and he gets mad when I stop him from doing it. He was in a GREAT mood yesterday when he woke up - he played and laughed and went in and woke Daddy up at 7:30 so Mommy could get ready for work. Then he was asleep by 8:30 for his morning nap. Today was another story. He woke up at 5 am and started wimpering. I tried to put him off but he only got louder and so I went in to feed him. He ate, I changed him, he ate again and I put him in the crib with a toy at 5:30 to get a little more sleep - he wasn't having it. Daddy went and got him a little before six and he came and snuggled with Mommy for a few minutes before demanding breakfast. Then the little stinker was asleep in his chair by 6:50 and took over an hour nap before waking for a quick snack before leaving by 8:30. When we got to daycare this morning he was still sleepy and not as talkative as usual. But I put him next to a toy and he went to town with those little fingers getting all busy.
Things Ian likes now - faces (he loves to touch faces - and constantly rubs my face while nursing), dancing and music, standing and bouncing, looking out windows, his pink pig on his car seat (the only toy he can reach and he hangs onto it while driving - its funny to watch him hold it when you go around a corner), Baby Beluga (he can listen to it over and over), sitting and grunting at a toy.
