6 Months a Tooth & Peas

Tomorrow is Friday the 13th and I will be 6 months old. I've managed to do quite a bit since my arrival. Just to name a few of the things: I've held a hunger strike, was involved in an anti-sleep protest, been stabbed with needles (I'm due again in a few weeks), held screaming competitions (I've won all of them), mastered the art of getting my way, sprouted a tooth, eaten cereal, peas and have successfully trained everyone involved in pampering me to do my biding. By the time I'm a year old, I expect that my resume will be loaded with impressive things - I am definitely well on my way to becoming master of the universe I believe.

My very first tooth has surfaced. About time. Last night I tested it out by biting my Mommy. Success! She was whining about it today. I plan on using it frequently and can't wait for it to come out a little further and for a 2nd one. People beware! You have been warned. I plan on fully evolving into my vampire status by my first birthday. I have also been given green mush to eat - aka sweet peas. I think my Mom thought the word "sweet" on the label would make it a tasty treat for me versus regular peas. I asked her to try it out first. Nothing sweet about it. I ate it anyways, sneezed and got it all over her. I'm eating cereal twice a day now as well. Its ok - lacking flavor. As for formula, heh, I'm still fighting that one. The strike continues!! As you know, I'm always on a mission to confuse my family. I have decided I will not drink my formula from a bottle or a sippy cup, however I will drink it from a spoon. They don't know what to do and I keep hearing them wonder - is it the new tooth that’s making him act like this? Is it the taste of the formula that he's not into anymore? What is it? As always, I will never tell.....I do love water though and can't get enough of it. Tomorrow I will give green beans a try to think up new ways to reek havoc.

Happy Half B-day, Dude!!! Now we're all 6-months old. Congrats on the tooth. It's about time it made an appearance. Watch out for that 2nd one. It was a pain for me. How'd the green beans go? The 'rents haven't tried subjecting me to that torture again, yet.

What? The 2nd one is bad? Great...and here I thought I was a pro at this teething thing already... arg.
Green beans were ok..but sweet potatos were better!
