He is trying to pull up! I myself can do very few pull ups, so Sean is on his way to being the athlete of the family 
. He’s getting very motivated to go after things he wants: the iPhone, the remote, the computer, and anything else we might be holding.

Just a couple of pictures from my phone… I looked through all of them as I rocked Sean to sleep tonight. He’s grown so much!

“These are my big eyes”
We had some neighbors over for Thanksgiving, and moved our couch/chair to the dining room and our table to the living room. It was pretty awesome, and everyone fit great!
For Thanksgiving at my parents’ house he had prime rib. If he starts out eating that there is nowhere to go but down, sadly.
Thanksgiving weekend we got a tree! And we decorated it. Sean likes it but isn’t really curious about it. But he liked the Santa hat!

I’ve been practicing my bodhran a little bit every day. Not much, but I feel like I’m getting better each day so that’s enough I guess. Sean likes it when I practice, so much so that I tried letting him play. He loves it! Normally he would put things right in his mouth, but he was actually excited to play the drum and did that immediately instead of putting the tipper in his mouth. The other day he got a little upset at me because I was playing the drum and not letting him play. Ah, preferences. After about a week he decided that in order to fully experience bodhran playing, he was going to have to put the tipper in his mouth, because you can’t really know a thing until you’ve tasted it, right? I have to just take it away because I don’t want teeth marks on my tipper.

Sean has been eating grown up food for a month now, and we are all really enjoying it. His favorite foods are all green vegetables. Asparagus, broccoli, green beans, kale chips, zucchini. I have offered him both fruit and vegetables at most meals and some days there is not a green vegetable in sight. He’s tried a lot of different things like toast, oatmeal, blackberries, carrots, pears, apples, grapes, rolls, chicken, and beef, but he consistently chooses green vegetables whenever I offer them and that is what he eats with the most enthusiasm.
