Big boy in my big boy seat

I HATE laying back. If I'm not sitting up and looking around, I am not a happy camper. This means mom is not allowed to put me and my carseat in the buggy at the grocery store any more. Nope, id way rather be slouched over in the metal seat. I wish all the strangers in the store would stop telling mom that I look uncomfortable and angry... I'm perfectly happy! I'm also excited to break in the cloth seat protector next time we go out.

New duds

I got back from New York and none of my old clothes fit. Check out my new jammies! Guess what size they are? 12 MONTHS!


Teething terror

Weird scab thing on my foot when I was 2 days old? Whatevs. Random strain of strep at 9 weeks? Bring it on. MRSA, RSV, and double ear infections all at the same time at 3 months? nbd. None of these things phased me at all, but here I am at almost four months and I've been crying nonstop for the past two days. Mom and Dad think I might be teething, and boy, has it put me into a tailspin!

A taste of Rochester pt 2

Happy Friday!

I am so lucky to have the BEST infant teachers ever!! Its hard for me and Mommy to be away from each other during the day, but knowing that I'm safe and happy makes it easier!

Robot overload!

Mom sure loves robots!! Here I am in a robot t shirt, chilling on my robot pillow and robot blankie, playing with my robot puppy and robot taggie. This is a very small sample of my robot paraphenelia. I have robot decorations in my room, robot bedding and window hangings, a roboy mobile above my robot themed crib,robot soap, robot toys, robot pjs, robot clothing... maybe its time for Mom to get a hobby? Good thing she's going back to school in january so she has something to do besides compuslively buy anything with a robot on it...

Sweater weather!

This was my uncle Bradley's sweater when he was a baby!


Play time

I'm learning how to play with toys. Today I picked up a toy (on purpose) and started to chew on it. Mom was so proud!

Coming up on the big 0-3

I will be 3 months old this week! I'm starting to learn how to hold on to things, like my crinkle puppy (thanks, Elisa!) and other soft toys. I also love grabbing Moms hand. She seems to love this even more than I do! I haven't mastered holding my bottle just yet, but I'm working on it. I'm getting plenty of practice-I just downed two six ounce bottles in the past 45 minutes! Moms going to try to give me a little rice soon to see if that will help fill me up.

I'm still not holding my head up a ton, but I'm getting lots of practice with that too. Although... I would much rather be practicing holding up my bottle. I hate tummy time!!

Babybot

Not sure what's cuter... my robot pajamas or my chubby cheeks!


Baby houdini

Mom and dad have no idea how I manage to wiggle out from under my blankets and turn sideways every night.

What is this stuff??

I'm so hungry all the time so Momma tried to give me this weird rice cereal stuff. I don't know what to do with it, so I just go to my old standby of smiling my face off when she tries to feed me.

NO WAY

GUYS. I made the most incredible discovery. Did you know we can CONTROL OUR LIMBS??? I've been smacking myself in the face for the past two days and

It
Is
AWESOME

That's it... I'm calling Grandma!

Dad has been muttering all week about the outcome of the election. I think he's annoyed with my political affiliations (see "P gets politcal again")... but I'm sure my Gramma is proud of me. Now if only I could figure out how to work the phone...

I love my Tia Julia

My Auntie Julia is on her mission in Portugal... check out the awesome socks she sent me! I can't wait to meet her next spring.



P gets political again

Daddy isn't super happy with me because he thinks my adorable picture with President Clinton is what sealed the deal for President Obama winning the election. Gramma, on the other hand, is pretty thrilled!



Family date night

We went out to celebrate Mommas first full week back at work!


2 months old

I recently celebrated my two month birthday! When I went to the doctor I weighed 14.11 lbs and was 24 inches long. I get cuter day by day!

I voted!

Hi guys! Mom and Dad took me to vote today. There was even an election for kids!! We got to participate in curbside voting because Mom wasn't feeling too great with her RA. Make sure you vote on Tuesday!

Back to work

I go back to work tomorrow. I have mixed feelings about it. I love what I do, and I'm pretty good at it. I love P more than anything in the world though, and I wish I could be with him 24/7. I even miss him when he naps.

I do wish people would stop acting like me going back to work is the end of the world... I'm going to miss P, but he's going to a great daycare and he and I will have plenty to cuddle and hang out.  Bottom line: it is what it is. I'm okay with it.

Duke of cuddles

Does the dog on my shirt remind you of anyone? I'll give you a hint...

Thanks for the shirt, Elisa!

It's always a good time when I'm around

Check out my new watch that Mom got me for the first day of school! (It's really a rattle.) I'm a little sleepy in this picture...

First day of school pt 2

Don't worry, I didn't scowl like this the whole time. I was just tired after a long day of playing!


Too cool for school

I started school today. Mom was freaking out for no apparent reason. I'm obiously going to be fine... who doesn't want to play with toys and other babies all day long?

In other news, how southern am I in my camo pants and orange vest? I'm Moms Carolina cutie!!

swag

Dad may have won Mom over despite his lack of style, but I didn't want to take any chances when I met Blueberry (not her real name) for the first time. I knew she was a big UNC fan, and who can resist a baby in a tie?

Mom has had a lot of fun with B's mom- its kind of cool they were pregnant at the same time!


blah & product review: binky thermometer

I had a tiny fever last week. Nothing a little infants tylenol couldn't clear up!

Check out this awesome thermometer though. Its a pacifier! Here are my thoughts:
PRO: I like it better than having to use one in my bum
Mom doesn't have to undress me to take my temperature
I like sucking on it
CON: its not accurate when I'm crying

All in all, I think it was well worth the $8 Mom shelled out for it.

Further proof of how awesome I am

An alternate title to this post could be "why Mom loves babywise" because get this...

I am sleeping through the night!!

I've been gradually sleeping longer periods of time at night, but now I'm regularly skipping my midnight snack and sleeping from 10 pm to around 6 am (sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less). I'm only seven weeks old. Boom.

Basically, I'm the best baby ever.

P gets political

Don't get me wrong, I love Big Bird as much as the next guy, but seriously, if PBS looses funding, another network will pick him up. If I keep hearing about this, I'm gonna scream! (Even more than I normally do!)

In other news, here's a photo of me looking extra cute in my bear suit after taking a walk with Momma outside.

Gramma!

Gramma Lee came all the way from Salt Lake to visit me! I've never smiled so much in my whole life!

1 month stats

I went to the doctor earlier this week... here's how I measured up:

Height: 22.5 inches (90th percentile)
Weight: 12 lbs (90th percentile)

I also got my hep b vaccine. I screamed. I heard most moms cry, but mine didn't. Does that make her a bad mom?


I love my doggie

Now all Mom needs to do is find one for Lady that says "I generally tolerate this hairless, smelly, loud thing that has been brought into my home."

or

"I don't understand why the baby isn't put in a crate after HE pees on the carpet"

or

"Don't touch that baby because I will bark at you. Even though I don't understand him, he is part of our family now"
