Babysoroos

Little T is getting bigger.  I can’t believe he’s six months old already.

He can sit up totally unassisted for long periods. He’s trying desperately to crawl, but so far that just means he pushes himself backwards until he runs into something. He’s really trying to get his knees up under him, though, and I don’t expect it will be long before he figures it out. I’ve seen him up on toes and hands a couple of times. He loves to stand, holding onto our hands or in one of the various standing-baby devices we have.  When he’s holding onto us, he even takes steps and wanders around.  He’s babbling a lot, different sounds and with lots of intonations. He laughs a lot. He loves watching his big brother — one of the sweetest things about being a mum of two is seeing his little face light up and a smile appear just at the sight of Ben. Ben is still being a great big brother, loves to hold and cuddle Timothy, and often tells us what a nice baby he is. Occasionally, of course, he pushes him over or tries to drag him around by the foot, but I suppose that’s standard fare for being brothers… and at some point, Timothy will start fighting back. 🙂

Six month pictures to be taken later today, I’ll try to get them up tonight or tomorrow.
