Fun at the doctor’s office

Went to the doctor yesterday for my 4 month well check. As you probably guessed, all is indeed well. I now weigh 18 pounds and am 27 inches long! I didn’t gain as much weight this month as I have in the past months but Mom was actually pretty happy about that. Apparently having to buy bigger clothes every other month was getting to be a bit much. The greatest thing about Dr. Martin’s office? The crinkly paper they put on the exam table! That stuff is fantastic!! I move, it crinkles. I kick, it crinkles. I grab, it crinkles. I drool on it and then squirm around a bit, it tears. 4 for 5 isn’t bad. I wish Mom would put some of that stuff in my crib!

Aside from that my two favorite things these days are my tongue and my toes (I guess that makes it 11 favorite things, not 2 huh?). I love to stick my tongue out all the time. Mom calls me her little lizard. And I can almost get my toes in my mouth. Won’t that be fun?!

Life is good

I suppose I should start off by apologizing for slacking on the blog updates. I just can’t get it through to Mom that I can’t do everything myself! In her defense we have been pretty busy and then were out of town for 10 days.

Last month Mom and I both kicked up our workout regimen. Mom, “Aunt” Nancy, Addison and I have started going to the gym most mornings. While the moms do whatever it is they do Addison and I kick it at Kids Club. We’re pretty much the cutest ones there and the nice ladies sure do miss us when we’re not. They make a huge fuss whenever we’ve missed a day or more. It’s really paid off too because I have gotten so strong! I can hold myself up like a big boy and Dad doesn’t call me “bobble head” nearly as much. It’s opened up a whole new realm of entertainment for me too. Not only can I sit in my Bumbo seat, I can play in my Exersaucer too!

While Dad was busy working Mom and I took a trip up to Minnesota to stay with my Gramma and Grampa up there. We got to celebrate Gramma’s birthday AND my cousin Macord’s. Party city! We spent some time at the lake house and I got to go on my first boat rides. The boat is pretty fun but I really like it the most when Grampa goes fast. Granted I can’t stay awake for long once he drops the hammer but what’s not to love about a nice nap out in the fresh air?

Oh, and last but not least, I’ve finally figured out this laughing thing! Let me tell you, I’ve never gotten so much attention! All I have to do is start giggling like a mad man and the people flock. Like I said, life is good.
