5 Months

To ring it another exciting month, you began sitting up last night; a sweet Valentine's gift for me, I'm sure  :)



Were we sitting on the couch before dinner when you just sort of leaned off the arm rest and sat there.  In that moment, you looked like such a little boy!  I immediately ran to get the camera, while you sat laughing with Abigail.  You were so proud of yourself- it was adorable.

No progress in the sleep department, but you've had a few half-weeks of good sleep, so I'm taking what I get.  Dad and I have become bed-sharing pros and while I haven't mustered the energy for a week of CIO evenings, I'm getting there (and boy am I getting there fast)

Asleep or not, you are an amazing little guy, always laughing and delighted by the world around you.

Here are some fun facts this month:
  • You love rolling from your back to tummy.  Tummy to back isn't as fun- you're always banging your head on the way down.
  • You cracks up watching Abigail walk down the stairs (her grunts are what get you)
  • The bubba has been replaced by sucking your middle and ring fingers.  Auntie Steph tells me that's what all the cool kids do  ;)
  • We're up to 2-3 meals per day and I add rice cereal to most of your fruits and veggies.  You love to eat!
  • Every time Abigail talks to you, your face lights up and my heart turns to mush.
  • Your favorite words: "hi" and "a-goo"
  • GG is your nickname and Abigail loves saying "hi GG" as you laugh with delight.
  • Sophie is your partner in crime.  God forbid I leave her at home.

You light up our world, GG.  

We love you.

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

Merry Christmas!

May your day be Merry and Bright!

A Suburban NYE

We partied hard with neighbors for New Year's Eve this year, and it was perfect - no need to dress up, tackle crowds, or spend big bucks - add to that great friends who are also neighbors, and it's a win/win.
