Life's a Beech...

This post if pretty much just so I remember but I have been trying to teach Lennox to say "Uh Oh." Pop claims that he does say it but Pop also has a history of unbelievable claims. We won't get into that right now though. Anyway, when I say "Uh Oh," Lennox says "UHHHHhhhh" in a really low voice like he's a scary monster then he smiles really big like he's done something great. I know he's trying to say the "oh" part but it just won't come out. Is "uh oh" a word? I don't know if that can be considered his first word... although, as I mentioned before, he did call me mama. Some might also think that I am following in Pop's footsteps on that note but Lennox really said that.

I've also been trying to get Lennox to eat a little table food. So far, he hates it! I tried letting him bite a really ripe banana. He loves banana in his mesh sucky thing. Well... not without it! He stuck his tongue out almost to his feet until the tiny banana spec fell out. I let him naw on a piece of an apple. Bad idea. He broke a tiny piece off and proceeded to gag until I jerked him out of the high chair and he puked on the kitchen floor. Bad idea mom... I gave him a bite of grits. Again with the tongue out to the floor until the grits fell out. He kept smacking his gums and sticking his tongue out looking at me like I gave him poison. Mango? nope... Avocado? no thanks... although he does enjoy a little guacamole at the Mexican restaurant. I guess he's just not ready yet.

Lately, Lennox has been really loving me. Just last week I was thinking that he doesn't show any real preference toward me or Jay. If he hasn't seen one of us for a while, he is definitely excited when we show up. But, as far as being a mama's baby or daddy's baby, I didn't think he was either. This week though, he's really been loving on me and reaching for me more. Maybe it's just in my head but I like it.
