Daddy gave Orion a PB & J sandwich today for lunch and as you can tell, he got it ALL over. He somehow manged to get peanut butter on the backside of his pants. I know that the last picture is slightly gross with seeing his chewed up food but he did this at the end of me taking pictures. He probably wondered why lunch was a photo shoot and figured he would show me.
For the past few days now Orion has been taking steps by himself without holding on to something. The first time was for Daddy and it was about 6 steps until he fell down. I have been meaning to get it on tape but of course never know for sure when he is going to do it. Today I grabbed the camera because he was talking a lot and having fun playing with his pegs. He kept having me put the pegs in so he could then take them out. He surprised me and actually walked while the camera was on. It is not going to be long until he is running everywhere!
Orion had a doctor's appointment today to check fluid in his ears and the report we got was that they are perfect. He also impressed the doctor when he heard a baby crying in a different room and pointed to the door and said "baby". He is so smart! Since we had such wonderful news that his ears were good we decided that he should get a treat and what could be better then his first Happy Meal??? He ate almost the entire hamburger and half of the fries before deciding to throw the food over the side of his tray, it's a neat little trick he picked up from Auntie Mary called "feeding the puppy" except we don't have puppy at our house like Auntie Mary does!
