Joel will be 6 months old in less than 2 weeks (gasp!) so we decided to
start him on a little of his first solids in case there were any issues
with feeding that I would want to discuss with his doctor at his 6 month
appointment next week. He did a great job getting the oatmeal down, but
really seemed like he could take it or leave it. It was pretty
anticlimactic. He didn't fuss and he didn't seem all that happy about it
either. We were only able to manage one little grin, and for our super
big mouthed grinning boy that wasn't much.

Levi and Joel are growing closer by the day and love each other so much. Joel just lights up when Levi gives him attention and smiles, coos and laughs at him. Levi always needs to know where Joel is and while Joel is napping he often says "Momma, can I play with Joel?" Here are a few cute pics of the two of them playing with Levi's train. I love listening to Levi talk to Joel and try to teach him things. Joel is also getting REALLY close to crawling and whenever he is up on all fours rocking Levi will come over to him and say "you can do it Joel" and then get down on his hands and knees and say "look Joel I crawl, you do it." Oh how I love my sweet brothers :).

Love Joel's cute little smile and messy face in that second pic. Hopefully he'll grow to love solid foods! He may enjoy fruits and veggies more than that yucky cereal ;)
It's so sweet how much your boys love each other! I think one of the very best thing about having two kids is watching their sibling relationship develop. Your boys both have a built-in best bud for life!
So sweet! I can't believe Joel is almost 6 months! I love how close he and Levi are. Babies' first bites of solid food are the best.
