Tatum is growing up so fast. He has learned to roll over in both directions and now does not like sleeping on his back at all. He rolls over to his tummy to sleep. The doctors said that is ok as long as he knows how to roll over to the other side when he needs to. I just go to bed praying that he know how to do that. It worries me but the doctors would know if he is able to do it. He is also really talking a lot. He just has a lot of stories to tell us and he will not stop until he has told us everything. The is growing up so fast that we are on to foods. He has tried squash, peas, sweet potatoes, green beans, apples, pears, and bananas. He has not hated anything. He is also doing such a great job at eating with a spoons also. We have carrots and peaches left to try and we will see what happens with that. So for dinner Tatum is starting to have an actual meal with a veggie and fruit for dinner. He will eat a whole package also. We took him to the doctor today for an illness and found out he is 16 pounds and 13 oz. All that food is going to his belly. Tate actually has an ear infection and is just congested from his previous sickness. He is on medication again. I do not know how I feel about that. Erik and I are doing well also. We can not wait until school is over. There are only 3 more days left. There is not much to do this summer. I think that Tatum and I are going to hang out together. Erik is going to be getting a job to make some extra money for us to cover some bills. That is all that is to report for the Honda family! I hope that this meets you well. We love you!

Sorry for the late update. Things get a little crazy as school comes to an end. There is a lot of stuff that needs to be done. Things are going really well. There are 10 days left of school and Erik and I cannot wait until we get time to be with our friends and family. Tatum has hit a lot of milestones this month. He has been doing rice cereal and he loves it with the breast milk but not the formula. He also has started veggies. He wanted to start with squash. We did that for 4 days so that we could see if he was allergic to it and he is not. Thank GOD! Then Tate decided that he wanted to move on to peas. We will start that tomorrow (5-19) I do not like peas so I hope that he does. Erik also does not like peas. We will see if we can continue the family tradition or not. Tatum has also been a "chatty Kathy" most of the days. He loves to talk and play. Most of the time he just is talking to himself but he does respond more to you when you do talk to him. He also has found his voice for screaming so that should be really exciting when people hear that with our windows open and they think this kid is getting killed. It is going to be an exciting time with all of us home this summer. It will also be interesting to see what we all get to do.
