20 Weeks Old!



Lee your growing up SO fast! Here are a few things you have started in the last two weeks.

You have started to grab at things. You LOVE to grab your feet. You started doing that about 2 weeks ago. The first time you grabbed your feet it was first thing in the morning. You were laying on your changing table and I had just undressed you to change your diaper. After your feet were free out of your PJ's, up they went and you just went and grabbed them both. It was SO cute. You had this smile like "hey, look what I can do". You have been doing it ever since. You will now grab your feet with socks on and pull your socks off.

Last week, you slept from 8:30pm - 7am straight through. You woke up so happy and smiley. You have been doing that pretty much ever since.

You had your 4 month check up. You weighed 16lb 6oz, 26 inches long, and head was 43.4cm. He's been having quite a bit of reflux for awhile now. So he had me stop rice cereal with a spoon and put it in the evening bottles. His reflux has completely stopped now. I'm so happy :)

Below is a picture of Lee grabbing onto Dakota. I wrote before how when he grabs Dakota she will just lay there. Below is of him starting to grab onto her fur.

Hee, heee, heeee :)

During bath time tonight. Lee found a bathtime duckie ;)

More Pictures (Still 4 Months Old)
I took a few pictures of Lee with my film camera. Here they are:

4 Months Old!



Where does the time go? Lee you are getting so big and more active everyday. We love you so much :)



Here are some new things you can do:
- Laugh when I change your diaper and give you kisses on your tummy.
- Laugh when I tell you your stinkie in your poopie diaper :)
- Roll over both ways from your back.
- You scratch different surfaces with your hand. You like scratching plastic things best I think.
- You LOVE to read books. I could read to you all day and you will just sit there and look at the pages.
- You are also jumping up and down in your bouncer chair/walker thingie. You love it! This morning you were in it for over an hour.
- You laugh when we give you kisses now.
- You started pulling Mommy's hair :/
- Your tounge is almost always out of your mouth.
- You started to reach for the puppies ears and pull on them. Kota doesn't mind it, Teal'c will growl.
- You are starting to reach for toys, but if Mommy or Daddy hold one up for you to get it, you just stare and stare. We have to put you on the floor so you can roll over and get it yourself.
- You ate your first 8oz bottle.
- You wore your first 12mo pj's.
- You will play with your bottle now. You hold onto it (or my hands) and you pull it in and out of your mouth. It drives Mommy crazy because she really wants you to eat.

Guess what Lee did...
10.5.2007



That's right, he rolled over from back to stomach. The video is like half-way through his roll, when he started to do it, I ran and got the camera. I tried to get another one on camera but everytime he saw the camera he froze and just stared at it. He must have spent a good half hour rolling, we would have to put him on his back, and then he would roll onto his tummy. He used to roll from tummy to back, but now he stops himself from rolling. You can see it in the video. He also has a cold :( Fever, vomiting, coughing and sneezing like crazy. Poor guy...

Finished Lee's birth video!
It only took me forever, lol. Here it is...

16 Weeks Old
My Little Punkin Head!!

So there have been a few firsts this week:
1) First time to a pumpkin farm.
2) First time to the park and in a swing.
3) First time giggling when tickled.

Steve and I took Lee to the park for the first time. We have a small one in our subdivision so we walked over there. We put him in the swing with his blanket behind him to hold him in there tighter. He did really good and liked it a lot. The picture on top is of LJ in the swing.

Lee has been blowing TONS of bubbles/raspberries. He is talking (cooing) a lot more too. I have a video of him talking to his bears in his swing. It's kinda hard to see him because he's buried in his blanket and I didn't want him to see the camera because then he would stop. He probably sat there 20 minutes talking to the bears before he passed out. I'll post the video a little bit later.

He still seems like he's teething, but nothing has broken through yet. I can still see them under the gums and I can feel them. Also he has been eating 6oz, sometimes even 7oz. Next week we start solids and I can't wait. We are still working on the pacifier thing. Lee's not too into it. He plays with it alot when in his mouth. He will hold onto it, take it out and then drop it, just this week I saw him take it out of his mouth completely and then put it back in so I think he's starting to get the hang of it.

I tickled LJ a few days ago and he actually giggled instead of grunting. I think he is starting to understand that it's a good thing. Sometimes he looks at you like you're growing horns on your head.

I went and visited Crystal, Emily, Frank, Madison, Steph & Malachy yesterday (Tuesday) and we had so much fun! We all went to Goebberts pumpkin farm to hang out and play. The kids had a bunch of fun! Madison and Malachy went on pony rides. Frank & Emily went into a haunted house and then right back out. It was VERY dark in there so Frank and I went and ventured through it. I screamed only twice, Frank screamed only none ;) Ha, ha. Pictures below.

When I was a baby, my Dad used to call me punkin head. I guess I had a big head like Lee ;0)
