21: Growing so fast

Christian is getting so big. He accomlishes something new everyweek. He's eating rice cereal for dinner every day. He loves it! He is a wonderful eater.
He has discovered his feet. He loves to grasp them while he's on the changing table. It is absolutely adorable. He gets a kick out of "This Little Piggy..." He thinks it is so funny.
Christian plays in a excersaucer both at home and at daycare. He seems a little overwhelmed by it at first, but then he starts exploring. He is curious about everything.
His hair is growing. It sticks straight up. And it so soft!

19: A Week of Firsts

Christian had his first cold this week. He was congested and his poor little nose was red.

He had his second round of shots on Monday. He weighs 16.6 pounds! He is in the 70 percentile for weight and 90 percentile for height. The doctor gave him the go ahead to start solid foods. So as soon as he gets over this cold, we are going to start feeding him rice cereal at night.

Christian has been practicing taking his binky out of his mouth an putting it back in. He gets it back in the correct way about 10% of the time.

He has discovered his feet! I love watching him hold his feet. It's incredibly adorable.

18: The Binkie

Christian has likes to take his Binkie out of his mouth. He is so close to being able to put it back in his mouth. He puts it in backwards. He did put it back in correctly once, but was very confused on where it came from.

Christian visited me at work on Monday. I only had a half hour to bring him around to everyone. Of course a half hour became an hour. Everyone wanted to see him and we still didn't make a complete round. He laughed and smiled for everyone. He was such a flirt.


Christian made this for me at daycare. =)

4 Months!

Today Christian is 4 Months old!

Christian wants to grab and touch everything. He loves his Taggies blanket and cold pacifiers. He laughs and smiles at everyone, especially other babies. He enjoys watching his puppy, Logger, and staring at books. His favorite thing to do is "stand". Christian is a very sweet, snuggly, happy baby.

17: First Visit to Green Bay

Christian had a first at daycare: he took his "binkie" out of his mouth and put it back in. We think this was a one time fluke because he was very confused on where his pacifier came from.

Christian drools everywhere. He slimes everyone who holds him.

His favorites: "standing", touching and grabbing anything and everything, cold pacifiers, his Taggie blanket, music, and smiling

His dislikes: sleeping in his crib (although he will, he prefers our bed, his swing, or cradled in some one's arms) and that's about it. He is a happy baby.

We went to Green Bay this weekend to visit Ema Bonnie and Papa Steve. We also saw my old friend Rebecca and her 16 month old daughter, Alaska.

Christian enjoyed touching Ema's plants and yarn. He also loved her wind chimes.
