Theo Sits

Sometimes getting back up is difficult:

Mother's Day

Much of the young boy's life has been spent prostrate on his back. Although he feels a lack of independence at times, there is a figure in his life that has always been there for him, bringing him solace in trying times, keeping vigilance over him while he sleeps, and prompting a loving smile or a look of wonder to Theo’s little face. This last Sunday, May 9, 2010, the Carruth residence celebrated Ceiling Fan Day to honor all the ceiling fans in his life.

Incidentally, he also loves his Mother lots and lots.

solid!

A week shy of his 6-month birthday, the boy’s mother tries feeding him ‘solids.’ Judging by his reactions, Theo doesn’t care too much for the rice cereal, but his parents made comparable expressions themselves upon tasting the stuff. On the other hand, the spoon and the shiny bowl are of great interest to him. He does not appear to ingest much, and he provides ample—though indecipherable—commentary throughout the experience, often talking more during this activity than other times of the day.
