Harrison's tricks

Didn't I just give birth? What happened.   Harrison has some new skills now to boast. He is growing quite perfectly. Next post I'll try not to talk all about him, but no promises. He's basically my life.

 I started teaching again today. Wahhhh. Leaving him is SO so sad. I am trying to have a good attitude, but honestly I'm not good at it yet.  I try to put on the brave face but all I want to do is go home and snuggle with my baby.  Especially because his life seems to be happening in light speed. How does one find the balance of working and taking care of your family? Hopefully I don't have to do this long.

Until I get some other alternative, I will try to enjoy every single stinking second of this precious little boy.  He is honestly a very good baby.  He rarely cries and if he does it's for good reason.  He is a charmer and a flirt. It's EASY to make to smile and laugh. It's music to my ears.

He hasn't yet mastered sitting on his own, but he is oh so close.
 He's eating solids, namely rice cereal and carrots.  He does NOT like squash.
 He has figured out how to roll over, but I still haven't caught him in the act.  Usually it's at 2 in the morning and he's crammed against the side of the crib on his tummy.  But hey, he's doing it sort of.
 Usually he's twisted like so.  He's very good at the twisting.
 Expert at smiling, seriously...gerber baby much?
 This is his 5 month picture below...ahh sigh. He makes my heart melt.
