Peas and a Tooth!

Luke is 25 weeks old today and, to my surprise, he is cutting a tooth!! He hasn't been overly fussy (yet) and seems to be taking it like a champ. It has just started to come in so I can't take a picture, but you better believe I will do my best to capture it on film as soon as I can! While I am looking forward seeing his tooth smile, I am also sad to see his toothless grin go away. I am torn between excitment and sadness......HE IS GROWING TOO FAST!!!

Tonight was also the night that Luke tried peas for the first time. Based on the last time he tried a green vegetable I did not think that tonight was going to go very well - I mean, who likes pureed peas? Well apparently Luke does!!! He didn't make a single yucky face and welcomed each bite with an open mouth. Who knew! We have 3 more days of peas and then on to the carrots!

Last, but not least, Luke mastered drinking from a straw yesterday. It is so cute to see him drink my water. While he has mastered the sucking, we are still working on the swallowing. Too cute! I hope to get video of his new trick to post to the blog soon.
