Slow down already, will you?

I've been meaning to write this post for, well, probably 2 months now. Here it is....finally!
My baby is over 6 months old already! He needs to just stop. Slow down. He's so busy and changing fast.
But I have to say he is such a joy. I call him my little muffin. Because he is a sweet little muffin.
He already has a little sense of humor. And I *LOVE* that my kids know how to laugh and have fun. And have such wonderful personalities. So great!
He is weighing in at 16.5 lbs and 26 inches long. These figures put him in the 25th precentile. He's a little guy compared to others I guess. But he seems like a chunk to me. He's perfect for him. He's into his 6-9 month clothing.
So what's he doing?
Oh my! He is rolling everywhere! Rolling, scooting, squirming. Always trying to get something in his mouth. The play mat is officially out of commission. And he doesn't stay on a blanket anymore either. He's not completely mobile yet but he's getting there.
He's almost sitting up. There's a video at the end if it's working. I say he's a weeble wobble that will fall down.
He's started food. He likes his fruits, not so big on the veggies. He is so interested in what we are eating. He wants the big food. I try to feed him his on his little spoon and I'm lucky to get 2-3 bites in him before he clams up. Will.Not.Open.Mouth. I'd like to say it's cute, but it's not.
He loves loves loves the cup. A real cup. Not a sippy cup. (although he loves that too). He can drink from a cup. I kid you not. I have to get video of his craziness with the cup.
He's just such a little joy.
Okay pictures.

This is a "mural" on his wall above the crib. They are those wall decals. LOVE them. They are all over his room. So fun!

The boys playing with a baby toy. Even Nicholas is entertained. I love it!

What a fun activity cube for a 6 month and 3 year old.

Having fun on the bed.

Look at that smile he gives his brother. He smiles whenever Nicholas comes close. It's love.

For now.

Such a roly poly.

I love this face. How can you not love this face?

He had to make a phone call. I think they weren't home by the look on his face.
Trying food. But the bib tastes better.
With Nana and Papa. Does he look like his Papa or what?


Okay all folks. Thanks for being patient with my lack of blogging and pictures of the kiddos.

Oh here's the video if it works. Hope so. It's cute.

Happy Birthday To Me

Little Man Update

Little Man is 19 months and has quite a personality. He loves to read, push his dump truck all around the house, loves to watch Disney Channel, build with blocks and help mom in the kitchen. He loves to go outside so we can't wait for the weather to warm up. He's starting saying a few words but very randomly and doesn't repeat them. But he's getting there. He understands everything we say (he doesn't always listen) and takes direction very well, when he wants to. He amazes us everyday with new things he discovers. Here are some pictures and video for you to enjoy.

Pulled all his books off of the shelf then sat down among them to read.

The other day I am getting Little Man dressed and let him play in his diaper a bit. He went into his closet and shut the door. Then came out got a book and went back in. Ha! So funny. He's quite the character. Here's the video:

Saying cheese for the camera.

Little Man in his snow suit. So cute!;

I am still here!

Here is a new video. I have been seriously slacking or...raising my son. An active 14 month old keeps me quite busy.

The next Beethoven?

Do I have a little genius in my midst? Maybe, maybe not. But he's still cute either way.

Sylvester and Tweety

We have our own little cat-mouse duo on our deck. Watch the video!!! These 2 wrens made a next in our propane tank and have thier little babies in there. The birds land on our deck railing and like to "sing" very loudly. They pick bugs out of the planters. Our cat is much tormented I think. She can't catch them and so must just let them sing in her ear. It reminds of me of Sylvester and Tweety-bird. Ha! Ha!

So Big!!

Little Man is so big.

Testing

I am trying the video feature. Hope it works. This is Little Man a few weeks ago when he just started walking.
