Well, I am about 5 months old here. Mom was sticking her tongue out at me, so I thought I would return her gesture. I am scooting around everywhere.... using my head instead of my arms. I am trying to sit up, but I can't hold my head up. I love to jump around in my jumperoo... and watch TV. Grandma Cooley is watching me while Dad and Mom are at work. Max (my dog) is trying his best to get any toy left on the ground or any bib left on the table. He is keeping Grandma busy.
I was glad to hang out with my friend Avery. She is 6 pounds lighter and 3 weeks older... what can I say? I love to eat. We had a good time playing... well I fell asleep on the blanket while Avery played and rolled around everywhere.
I went to my pediatrician for my 4 month check-up and I did not have a good time. I screamed from the time the nurse weighed me until we walked out the door. I got three shots in my legs. Ouch, they hurt! Mom really enjoyed the visit. (sarcasm) Well, I am 27 inches long and 18 pounds. Big boy huh? I started eating cereal this week and I am still adjusting to the idea of using a spoon. My legs are getting stronger as play around in my jumperoo!
I got to go swimming for the first time a couple of weekends ago. Dad and Mom are still nervous about me being in the sun and being so young. Mom made me where sunglasses to protect my eyes. I am one cool dude! It took a little time getting used to the water and then I was having a good ole time being pushed around in my floatie. Notice my big belly- I love to eat!
I went to visit my mom's cousin Jason and his new baby Sadey Grace. It is hard to believe I was close to that size four months ago. She is so cute and I can't wait to play with her when we get bigger.
Daddy and Mommy had to go to a wedding in Dallas and they spent two nights away from me for the first time. I got to spend some quality time with both grandparents. I know they missed me a whole lot... they left Hurricane Harbor early to come home and see me!!
Great Grandma Kal bought me and Paxton matching outfits. Aren't we cute? I can't wait to crawl and play with my big cousin. He is taking a picture of me ... look closely!
Momma is always trying to get me to sit up so she put me in this toy called the "Bumbo". I have had a great time in it... watching TV, watching Grandma and mom cook, and watching Max try to bite Momma.
I have started this new thing where I stick all of my fingers in my mouth at one time. If I open up wide enough, I can sometimes get a few fingers from my other hand in there too.
I am all smiles! A full belly always makes me happy!! Drewski is a nickname from mommy and daddy.
My cousin Colby is about a year older than me. I like those camo shorts Colby! This swing belonged to him at one time. He likes to push it so I can swing and he likes to give me hugs and kisses. We are going to have some fun times at Grandma and Grandpa's with our Aggie and Longhorn baseball bats.
I love my daddy! He reads to me, plays with me, gives me a bath, and lets me ride on his back. OK, well I can't ride on his back yet. Mommy just thought it would be a cute picture.
We went to Sharon and Lewis' for the 4th. Everyone got to hold me while mommy and daddy played volleyball. We watched fireworks on the 3rd in Longview. I slept a little and then watched the end of the show.
We've been so busy here lately getting situated at Grandma and Grandpa Cooley's house. Things have finally settled down and mommy and daddy are back to posting pictures of me. WE are getting ready to build a house by my other grandparents. I am so excited! I am now a little over 3 months old and weigh almost 16 pounds. I can hold my head up for a long time now and I am trying to roll over. I can make it half way and then mommy gives me a push to get me to my tummy. I spend most of my time drooling or eating!
We made a trip to Keller and McKinney this weekend. We went to see our friends Jonathan and Jenna and their new house and then we went to visit my cousin Paxton for his 1st birthday! He got lots of presents and had a lot of fun eating his own mini cake. I can't wait to play with all of your toys Paxton!
Mommy and Daddy are already dressing me up like a baseball player. Maybe I will be a future Sabine Cardinal since we are moving back to the Kilgore area. Mommy and Daddy both go new jobs and we sold our house this week. I am so excited to move closer to my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins!
Well, my Grandma Cooley took me to the doctor recently for my 2 month check up and shots. I am almost 25 inches long and weigh 13 pounds 9 ounces. It won't be too long before I start growing out of my toys. I am drooling all the time... mommy and daddy have to change my clothes a whole lot more. The rolls on my legs are getting bigger!
My daddy bought this onesie for me! I got to wear it one time before my wonderful dog Max took it off of the pack'n'play and chewed several holes in it. Max is a good dog but he likes all of my stuff way too much. He likes my clothes, toys, and especially my diapers. Weird, huh?
I have been smiling a whole lot here lately. When people talk to me, I am listening. I am watching people as they move around me. I enjoy laying down and looking outside. I am 7 weeks old here. I am going to the doctor next week for my shots... please keep me in your prayers!
Mommy's present for Mother's Day is a massage. It will help her relax from the stress of being a high school teacher! Summer is around the corner Mom! You can make it!
