My tiny baby is now a big boy. Learning new things every day and just plain growing way too fast. He's 5 1/2 months now and weighs 18.5lb (up from 6lb 9 oz at birth!)
Ryan (aka Yoda) started eating big boy food this last week. He took to it right away. I got pictures, of course:

In other news, he went swimming for the first time on Friday. He got a new swim diaper that is just adorable. I had been wanting to take him in the pool pretty much since he was born, but I finally remembered to buy him a swim diaper last week. He didn't mind the water and even kicked around on his tummy for a while. It was the cutest thing I've ever seen. Here's the pictures - warning, the second one has a pic of me in a swimsuit.

Ryan's buddy Matthew was at the pool with us, he didn't get to swim though. He and Ryan sit on the side of the pool during my water aerobics class. Ryan went swimming after that. So, after our swim, we caught up with Matthew and his mommy in the locker room. It was one of the first times they have actually "spoken" to each other and they had been stretching to see each other in the locker room. I picked up Matthew and held him so they were face to face and Ryan decided to chew on Matthew's toes. I guess he figured since Matthew does it, he had yummy toes. Here are pictures of that one. You can see Matthew in the mirror in the second picture. He's two weeks older that Ryan and 2lb lighter.

And here's a picture of my adorable little man just being his usual smiley self:

Can't type any more, my hands are being chewed on.
