50 weeks!!!

Zane is 50 weeks old today!!  It's been a big week for him too.  We thought he was getting better over the weekend, and then he woke up with a fever Monday morning.  It turns out he got his very first ear infection. :(  We almost made it a whole year without one... so close!

Then he went back to school on Wednesday, and it's official...Zane's no longer in the infant room!  He's now a waddler!  He's been visiting the waddler room lately getting ready for his transition, but we weren't expecting him to move there full-time until later this month.  Nobody was more surprised, though, than his dad who had to cope with the change of a new sign-in and lunch drop off routine and got a bit flustered trying to remember all the new information!  But, Zane's been doing pretty well.  He now eats lunch at a table in a chair (a very short table and very small chair) and naps on a mat!  No more highchair and no more crib!!!  Apparently he's handling those changes better than I am. :)  He's struggling a little with the change in classrooms, but next week should go even more smoothly for him.  Hopefully for us too!

I'm also very excited that I just discovered that my favorite homemade baby food website (www.wholesomebabyfood.com) has a related toddler food website: www.wholesometoddlerfood.com.  It's especially exciting now that his lunch is more of a lunch.  It's weird only packing one meal (with lots of options still) for him now since he can eat school snacks in the morning and afternoon.

I also can't believe I forgot to post last time that he has 2 new teeth (mostly for my own recording purposes).  The tooth just to the right of his top and bottom middle teeth broke through last Tuesday.  He's up to 6 teeth now.
