It has been a while since I last wrote about Daniel. He has learned how to do so many new things in that time.
The biggest accomplishment is that he can say "Momma" now. He has said other words or at least made sounds that resembled words in the past but "Momma" is definitely his first official word. He only says it when Tary's around or when he's upset. Last night, Daniel stared right at Tary and clearly said, "Mom!" As cute as it would have been to hear him say "Daddy", we're just relieved he didn't say someone else's name first.
Daniel is becoming more mobile. He can roll over from his back onto his tummy and vice versa. He sometimes rolls over multiple times in a row and ends up several feet away from where you placed him down.
If you sit Daniel on the floor, he can sit and play with nearby toys. He really enjoys sitting next to a container full of little toys that he can reach in and pull out.
We've incorporated more solid foods into Daniel's feeding schedule. He still is learning how to chew and swallow his food as opposed to sucking from a bottle. He especially likes eating melt-able snacks that dissolve in his mouth.
Daniel still likes playing peek-a-boo but now he laughs a lot more when you're playing with him. He loves jumping up and down in your arms and we bought him an ExerSaucer jumper to play in.

I'm so proud of my little Daniel. Before I know it, he'll be crawling around the house and getting his hands on everything. I love him so much. I especially love the Daddy/Daniel time that we spend together like giving him baths, getting him dressed/ready in the mornings, and bringing him to daycare. I know that nothing compares to the bond that Mommy/Daniel share but the Daddy/Daniel bond is pretty special too.
