New adventures

So as of this pas Father's Day weekend, you are now rolling. Not just rolling over from your tummy to your back, but you will go from your back to your tummy and then keep rolling. I love it. I think you love it even more, because you have realized you are now mobile! You totally roll off your play mat and then get mad because you can't see yourself in the mirror anymore! ha-ha! It is so cute.
You have also started laughing. Not just your little breathing in kind of noise that showed us you were happy and enjoying what we were doing. I mean you actually laugh at us. Especially Micky Mouse Club House cartoon. You love that show. Any other cartoon can be on and you might stare at the TV for a little bit. But when Micky Mouse Clubhouse comes on, it has your full undivided attention and you will LAUGH at it. You also laugh at daddy or I when we play with you. I love it, you have the cuteset laugh ever!
You are starting to outgrow some of your 0-3 month onesies and nighties. Your feet are getting to big for the footie spots and the length is too short when you stretch out. I think I have just been holding on to you being little and not wanting you to get big. So I had to go get you some 3-6 month nighties so you can sleep comfortably. (tear) You are becoming such a big baby now! Eating rice cereal, rolling over and over, laughing....I mean what is next sitting up! Oh you are such an adventure.

4 month check up


So you did great at your 4 month check up. You definitely didn't like your vaccinations and took them a lot worse than at the 2 month check up. It broke my heart, but I know it needs to be done. I loved getting to spend the first half of a Friday with you and not rushing off to work. You have grown to 24 inches (50%) and all the way up to 13 lbs (50%). We are getting to start single grain rice cereal now to try and get you ready for baby food and learn to swallow. I can't wait to see your reaction.

Father's Day


So for our first Father's Day you stayed awake ALL DAY! There were no naps, no sleeping nothing. For the entire weekend that is. Sat you only had a 1 hr nap from 9-10 in the morning. So I thought we were in for it on Father's Day. However, you were still your smiling little self. Daddy says it's because you know that the weekend is the only time you get to spend ALL day with us so you want to stay awake for every minute! I guess he is right because you did this all weekend and didn't seem to mind. We kept trying to put you down for a nap after your bottles, but you would wake up after about 10 minutes of sleeping ready to play! Amazing I know! For Father's Day I had a shirt made for you to wear just for Daddy. He loved it along with all his other gifts! You were the sweetest baby this weekend (just like all the others). We are so blessed to have you in our lives!

4 months old


You are now 4 months old and growing so fast. Every day there is something new. Maybe a new face, sound, or movement. You have started grabbing your feet. You haven't seen them yet, but you are able to grab and hold on to them. You are still the best morning baby I have ever seen. You will sleep in if we let you. Sometimes 8 sometime 9am! We love it! During the week we have to wake you up to get ready to go to daycare with Irene. I hate having to do this, but you still wake up with a smile and laugh for me. Ohhh I love you so much!

All smiles



You have started smiling all the time now. Not just when something is funny or surprises you or when you have gas...but you smile just when we meet eyes! I love it. It is the most precious thing ever. I can only imagine what it is going to be like when you start talking (really talking).










This was your first trip down to see your Nana in Houston. You did so good on the drive. It's as if you didn't mind at all. We played Beauty and the Beast in the DVD player, but you didn't have much interest in it. You wanted to look and me and buzz, spit, and coo most of the time. After about 2 hours you fell asleep for almost the rest of the way. You woke up after about 4 hrs of driving and we had to stop to change and feed you. We had the best time with Roberto's family and you really seemed to have enjoyed yourself. Now, the trip home was a different story. You did not want to be in that car seat after the first hour. But after 6.5 hours and a couple of stops for you we made it home. All in all a good trip.

Ohhh you are growing up so fast!



So when we came home from Nana and Papa's on Memorial Day weekend I sat you down for some tummy time since you were getting cranky. That always seems to put you in a good mood. This time, you just picked your head right up and looked around. Not just for a second either. You picked it up high and just kept looking around and watching everything as though life looked different from that angle. We have it on video and all kinds of pictures. We were so excited and proud! Not to mention a little confused on how you just starting doing it so well!

Swim Time!


So we took you swimming at Cade's 7th birthday party on May 30th. You really seemed to enjoy it. As long as you were close to me you were happy. Not one cry the entire time. Not to mention every one just LOVED your swim suit and hat! We had to block that sun from your pretty face (even though we swam in the shade).
