Devin -- Week 39 (7/9/14-7/15/14)

Devin does not mind going places, but he isn't really all that excited to be there either. Every Wednesday, when we go to the farmer's market, there are animals that he can see from the stroller, but he just does not seem all that impressed. This week I took him out of the stroller and had him touch a kitten through the cage, but this still did not seem to change his opinion of the animal at all. Devin also did not seem too excited to be at the library, which was a very large contrast to his super enthusiastic brother running around and squealing while looking at different books. Devin may just be a more laid back and relaxed child, or maybe he is just taking it all in and will become more excitable when he is older. I am just going to enjoy the moments and wait to see what this little boy will become. One thing that Devin does love to do is sit by the window and watch his Daddy mow the lawn. He kicks his legs and bounces in my lap as Ryan goes back and forth in our yard. He gets really excited about faces too, often wanting to grab and pull anything that he can. Speaking of pulling, grass is something that Devin is very fond of pulling. If left alone in the yard for too long, he will often have it all over himself and even put it in his mouth.

Devin's food list has continued to expand with the introduction of egg yolks and asparagus this week. Asparagus was not super exciting, but he loved the egg yolks and soon was leaning in for more. At the pool, while his brother was eating an entire continent of animal crackers, Devin sucked and chewed on his very own. He continues to grow teeth quickly, with two more bottom teeth popping through by the end of the week which now brings his teeth total to eight (four on both the bottom and top). He continues to practice sitting and rolling, but at night, he still seems to get his legs stuck between the crib rails, necessitating late night rescues from Mommy.
