My Girls Hannah and Aunt Beth

Mom, Dad, and I had a great weekend.  It started on Friday when my girl Hannah came to see me.  I loved listening to her talk and snuggling with her.  She’ll be my babysitter soon enough!

Then Granny and Grandpa came down to see us for dad’s birthday (Tuesday) and Aunt Beth came with them!  I haven’t seen her in a long time!  She sang and read to me and I talked a bunch to her.  We had a great weekend!

5 Months

I’m pretty sure Mom will start crying if she reflects on how I have changed over the last 5 months.  So enjoy the pictures!

Here’s to another incredible month!

Hokie Man

Mom and Dad bought me a new Hokie hat that I had to show off today, must have provided some good luck for our big win over BC.  Good luck to Super T and the Gators tonight, my aunt Becky is trying to raise me a Gator! 

I had a great day with Mom and Dad filled with eating cereal, sitting, listening to music, and practicing being on my stomach—crawling is just around the corner!

21 Weeks!

Yup – I am the big two-one today!  Not the big 21, but 21 weeks – Mom and Dad are afraid I am growing up too quickly!

Speaking of growing up, I’ve been busy trying to roll over from my back to my belly but haven’t quite got there yet.  I really can roll over that way but choose not to – it’s no fun being on my belly!

Enjoy the new pictures!

Virtual Visitors

For the first time in a month Mom and Dad have me all to theirselves.  I’m just such a popular man, everyone wants to visit me all the time.  Since Mal and Pap wanted to still see me I inspired them to join my ever-growing Skype list.  They are still working out the kinks, but I definitely saw and heard them, which made me very happy.

I also went up the craft show and enjoyed the fresh air and riding in my stroller.  Enjoy the pictures of me playing with Mom and Dad! 🙂  Oh, everyone always says what a happy baby I am, I thought I would give you one crying picture.  I hardly ever cry, but this teething stufff has me all whacked out. 

20 Weeks!

Mom and Dad just can’t believe how fast I am growing.  Now that I am sitting they are giving me more things to play with, like cups, blocks, and even some water play.

I attended another football game, I got to meet a lot of mom’s former students and some of their friends.  Mr. Diebler scared me at first, but I quickly warmed up to him, he’s a funny guy!

Thanks for the package Aunt Becky!  I can’t wait to use it!!!

Showing Off

Mal, Pap, Rhonda, and Harvey came to see me this weekend.  I spent most of the time showing off my new sitting up skills.  On Thursday (9/24) I first sat for about 10-15 seconds, now I’m up to over a minute!  Mom and Dad just can’t believe all that I can do at only four months!!  Who knows what I’ll be doing the next time they see me! 🙂

Becoming a BIG Man!

I’ve been getting tired of having Mom and Dad do so much for me lately that I’ve decided to take things into my own hands.  I figure if I want to get things done, I better start on it now!

So I’ve decided to start sitting on my own.  I can only do it for 10-15 seconds at a time but I’ll be sitting for good in no time!  Dad gave me a hand today also in standing.  Pretty soon I won’t need any help in that either!  

I’ve also decided to help Mom out and start feeding myself.  My bottle gets heavy sometimes but I am working on getting my arms stronger so I can do that also!  I’ll keep working on new things!

 

More Grandparents and Sippy Cup

I had a nice time with Granny and Grandpa.  Later in the day I practiced more with my sippy, I’m getting so big!  I go for my four-month shots tomorrow, I’m sure the doctors will be so proud of how I have grown!
