Wesley's First Word?

Greetings! We here at the Dodson home are moving right along with life! Josh has applied to Nursing school at MUSC for August 2010, and is awaiting acceptance. He is also in the final stages of enlisting in the Air Force Reserves, and plans to swear in on October 10th. God is SO good to be continually working out His good and perfect will in our lives, we are very blessed!!

Our "little" Wesley is really moving right along..literally! He is starting to creep :) He can tuck his legs up under his belly, and almost get up on all fours. Watch out world...we are about to be MOBILE! He also seems to be beginning to mumble a few very special words!!! Wesley loves meal time, and is looking forward to fresh vegetables coming from the Farm starting this week.

Was it really 13 weeks ago that i last wrote!?? SHEESH time has FLOWN by! This week Wesley is 20 weeks old!! we have been having so much fun with so many new adventures...i just do not even know where to begin! we have had wonderful visits from family and friends. wesley is sleeping through the night like a champ (he started that at 7 weeks!) {i give "Baby Wise" ALL the credit for that!!}. i have gone back to work (did that when he was 11 weeks old, it's been an ok transition). josh has decided to work towards earning a nursing degree (more on this later!). wesley can roll over, do a 360 on his tummy, give kisses (almost on demand, or, well, whenever he wants to, and it's open-mouthed with drool :) furthermore....drum roll please...we've started solid foods!!! =) which, is the main topic of my bloggin' today! we're doin' it home-style..boys love their Mama's home cookin', right!? THIS baby boy sure does!! This week we introduced Sweet Potatoes and Butternut squash, that i baked and prep'd myself! (it really wasn't that hard or very time consuming, and it is very rewarding to be able to say i did it myself!) Wesley really likes his food now! he opens wide and leans in to his spoonful..we are SO PROUD!

It all started with these little guys...

Jars & ice cubes

i promise, he likes it!
