A Breakthrough!

This just in! A 5 1/2 month old adorable baby boy in Blaine, MN was spotted with a tooth breaking through. The alleged tooth is located on his bottom gum line where the top ridges of it can be felt and seen. We'll be following this development closely and keep you updated as the action happens!

A New Green In The GreeneHouse!

In other news, Zachary Greene ate his first vegetable ever (green beans) last Sunday evening for dinner. His parents proudly report that, while unsure at first, Zach ended the meal smiling and wanting more.

Go Bananas!

Bec and Wes inspired us to try something else besides cereal and so we ventured onward in the world of solid foods to try bananas. Zachary loves them! He's his daddy's boy and is enjoying the sweetness of his new food. He gets so amped for the next bite that he holds his arms out and shakes excitedly :) Veggies to follow next week!

Toots In Action

This is a short little video showing Zach in action. As you will see he is working on being able to sit on his own, but just doesn't quite have it mastered yet!

5 months!

It seems that I can barely keep up with this little guy!! It was just yesterday (or so it seems) that Zachary was 4 months old and now today he is already 5 months old. I am with Zach every day so I don't notice little things as much as those who only see him once in a while. I am, however, noticing that he is much more alert and his attention span for things is greater. We were "people watching" at the mall on Saturday and he followed people with his eyes and head until they were no longer in view. He most definitely knows his own name and will turn towards you if you call him by it. He laughs out loud at more things as well, like something he sees on a cartoon or when Aria meows and rubs her face against him. Luckily Aria tolerates Zach petting her (aka pulling on her fur) and trying to eat her ears. She just purrs and sits there lovingly, they are going to be great buddies for sure :) I have yet to catch a picture with the 2 of them though, but I'll keep working on it! Here are some pictures from today- I also tried to upload a video, but it didn't work :( I'll give that another go tomorrow.
More pictures on Flickr of Zach being 5 months old and from Mother's Day - Enjoy!

Water Baby

Zach got prepared for the summer season of swimming pools and vacations at the lake by going swimming for the first time! He looked slightly confused as we entered the water, but he was soon splish splashin like a pro. The only snaffu was that he kept trying to get the water in his mouth so we ended up doing very little belly swimming. Zachy and Mommy are planning on taking a swim class at the YMCA next month where he'll continue his aquatic adventures :)
