Proof of Concept
About a week and a half ago, Nathan demonstrated to us just how much he's grown. While on our bed he rolled from his back to his front to his back. And to prove that it wasn't just a fluke, he did it again.
And then, for a number of days, he was content to stick with his usual front-to-back rolling. Until this weekend, that is.
I believe we can officially say that Nathan is mobile. He has figured out that he can use rolling to get places. Usually not very far, as he's likely to run into a toy or a piano bench or some other obstacle along the way, but mobile nonetheless.
It's a frightening prospect, this mobility. It's a big....er...step and my brain is taking a bit to come to terms with the implications.
Last week we also started Nathan on his first solid food: banana. In true fashion, a picture is worth a thousand words. And so I present Nathan & The Banana:
He seems to be satisfied that, yes, he too can eat food like mom and dad do. But he seems less than compelled that it's something he actually wishes to continue with. Bananas may be on the back-burner for a bit.
