Hard to believe that this little boy of ours is already turning SIX months old! Just like most things, he is taking his time and is in no hurry to sit up on his own. He's perfectly fine laying down and, like his Dad of course, will not do so until he is good and ready! Fortunately he is getting lots of "wobbly" practice in his jumper and high chair. We introduced cereal about a week before he turned six months old, and like all babies I imagine, he wasn't sure what to do with it at first. Of course he eats it up now and will soon be ready for veggies!
We also introduced a sippy cup so he can slowly get used to it. We give it to him a few times a week with a sip of water. He grabs it right away and takes it to his mouth, just doesn't know to lean his head back to swallow when sitting up. He'll be great at it by the time he's a year old and ready to wean off the breast milk.
Last pic is of him sitting in his new Bumbo seat. This too will help him learn to sit up on his own and can double as a high chair when we travel!
