June is shaping up to be a very big month for Grayson! He's learning all kinds of new tricks...or at least he's working on them...
He's trying to master the sippy cup. This generally works best when he has no shirt on. We're not sure but he MAY have actually gotten about a half ounce of water in his mouth one night.
He still loves his bottle the best! He's down to about 4 a day now, but his bottle before bed is his Mommy's favorite time of day!
Despite his Mommy's best effort at homemade baby food, Grayson refuses to eat anything that doesn't come pureed in a jar. Apparently Mommy's mashed sweet potatoes or mashed bananas don't taste nearly as good as Gerber's. We're also trying to get him to eat a few things other than pureed baby food. He shows good effort with the biter biscuit, but it's still not his favorite. 
One of his new favorite things is standing up while he holds onto the coffee table.
He's also gotten very "grabby." Anything on Mommy's face is a favorite target. this probably wasn't a great time for Mommy to decide to grow long hair again.
And the really big news is that he's making forward progress with his crawl now. So I guess we officially have a crawler at 7 1/2 months old. We were hoping he'd wait a little longer on this milestone, but we gave in and made the official baby gate purchase earlier this week.
Of course that means he gets into EVERYTHING now! He loves finding magazines and tearing up the pages. He got caught this time!
Some days he just plays so hard! He laughed and laughed when Mommy put him in the laundry basket.
Then he had to show Mommy all his toys!
But that was such hard work that he conked out right on his quilt. Most days he's already asleep in his carseat by the time Mommy gets him home from daycare - and it's only a 5 minute ride.
This weekend Angela, Joe, and Jackson came to play. Grayson and Jackson are getting to be such big boys! Grayson was good at stealing Jackson's toys.
But Jackson has more teeth! Check out those two chompers!
Grayson spent his first official afternoon at the bar! PK's is a nice hangout for locals, especially when the weather is warm and the porch is open.
He still doesn't mind kisses from Daddy in public.
He sure is having fun learning all of these new things!
