that's my baby face

I am doing lots of moving around lately. I try to get myself up to a crawl, but my arms and legs don't seem to get the hang of it quite yet, so I just scoot around on my belly. It's amazing how fast I can get around and now that I have the rolling over and around down, I can go even faster, look out world once I get to crawling, there ain't no stopping me....We are going on a trip this weekend, going to NE to visit grandma and grandpa and to meet my other cousins and the great grandparents.
How exciting! I wonder how I will do in the car for 6 hours?! I'll let you know. We'll be back on Monday night, so it's not too long of a trip. Do you have any fun
weekend plans?? We'll talk again soon. Bye for now....

Five Months and counting....

Today is my five month birthday....and we decided to go hiking at St. Mary's Glacier over by Idaho Springs. It was very steep and rocky, and when we got to the top it was windy and cold, but what can you expect when there is snow on the glacier. We tried out the hiking backpack, so I rode with daddy. It was fun, I would look from side to side checking out all the prettty trees and things. I'm not quite big enough to look all the way out, so I would peek out from behind. I was tired when we came down, so I took a nap, but all in all it was a fun day. I hope that you all had a good Monday too. Bye for now.

Found My Feet!

cousins

I got to meet 3 of my six cousins from Nebraska this past weekend. This is Connor, he is only 8 days older than me and about 5 pound heavier than me. He was trying to get my attention. My aunt and grandpa and grandma came to visit, so that grandma could come and help take care of me for the week. My daddy is on a trip to Florida for the week, so grandma came to help mommy. We have been having a good time. I miss my daddy though. He'll be back on Friday. We did quite a few things over the weekend, we went hiking, swimming and just plain hanging around together. I was so tired that I slept all night long, two nights in a row....mom was happy about that too. I have been taking longer naps lately too, about 2 1/2 hour naps. Mom doesn't know what to do with herself when I sleep that long, secretly I think she really likes it...I hope that you have a great rest of your week. Bye for now.

4 month checkup

I had my four month check up today...it went well, my head was measured, 16 inches, my body was measured, 24 1/2 inches long and they weighed me, 12 lb. 5.5 oz. I have grown a bit since my last check. Then I had the not so fun things done, the shots, I was not a happy camper about that, but daddy held me and I felt better. I am developing right on track, I'm little, but that's okay. The doctor told mom and dad to wait on the rice cereal for a little longer since it doesn't agree with my tummy very well. She was very nice, I really like her, she listened to my heart and checked my tummy and then watched to see how well I can hold my head up when I am on my tummy. I think I passed with flying colors. The two of us even had a little conversation, me blowing bubbles and she copying me. I went and did errands and went to the park with mom after that and when I got home I took a 2 1/2 hour nap, that doctor business wears me out. I hope that you have a great day. I hope things are going well for you...Later.

fun at the farm....

I have my own little farm at my house, my exersaucer. I get to play with cows, pigs, horses and sheep. My little barn even plays a few songs and has blinking lights. I really enjoy the time I get to exercise my legs and also chew on the cow and pig. It keeps me very entertained, at least for about 10 minutes, then it's on to the next thing! I wonder what will we will do this weekend?! I hope that you have a great weekend and enjoy some fireworks for me, not sure what I will think about all that
noise.
