Age: 10 months
Height: 29.75 inches
Weight: 19 pounds 5 oz
Nicknames:
Likes: Crawling all over (especially chasing Kitty and Big Sis), laughing at silly faces, feeding myself (especially Puffs), playing upstairs in the loft with balloons, bath time in my seat.
Dislikes: Being hungry or tired, having my nose wiped, sitting still, sippy cup, when I can’t reach or do something myself.
Notes: I’m not spitting up nearly as much as I used to. I’m a crawling machine and am working on pulling up on stuff. I like to eat Stage 3 food…it makes me feel big. I still like my bottle more than my sippy cup, but I’m getting better. I got to celebrate my 8th monthaversary at Disney! I’m working on waving, but I’d rather flap my hand at my mouth or pound the table. I love swinging…I could sit there and chill all day.

Age: 6 months
Height: 28.5 inches
Weight: 17 pounds 3 oz
Nicknames: Buddy Boy, Russ
Likes: Sitting up, smiling, people talking to me, putting everything in my mouth, loud noises and people squeaking at me, whatever my sister is doing, watching Baby Einstein.
Dislikes: When Mommy leaves the room, peas, waiting for my bottle.
Notes: I’m rolling back and forth and I sit up really well on my own. I sit in a high chair at home and when we go out to restaurants. I’m still spitting up quite a bit. I like the ladies at my daycare and I smile and wiggle when I see them in the morning. My eyes are still blue…they haven’t changed, and I don’t have any teeth yet. I’ve had RSV, bronchitis, and two ear infections (its been a bad month or two for everyone!).

Age: 4 months
Height: 26 inches
Weight: 16 pounds 4.5 oz
Nicknames: Parky, Nemo
Likes: Watching TV, stage 1 food, bath time, grabbing all of the new body parts I find (yes, even that)
Dislikes: Acid reflux medicine
Notes: I’m still a creature of habit and like swaddling, snuggling, and always being attached to someone. I still love to watch my big, funny sister sing and dance. The new things are really the carrots I mow down before bath time and my grand attempts at rolling over (I can’t quite make it, but I try pretty hard).

Nicknames: Meatball, Park, Fluffy Head, Chubby Cheeps
Likes: Faces, singing and music, standing up, snuggling, checking out everyone’s business.
Dislikes: Being alone, being bored, car rides.
Notes: Mommy and Daddy still work really hard to get me to smile and laugh because I’m so cute. I like to coo, squeak, and grunt back when you talk to me. I’m now taking 2 tbsp of rice cereal in every bottle because it helps things stay down in my growing belly. I’m sleeping really well, which makes everyone happy. I go down at about 7, then Daddy wakes me up for a bottle at 10 (which we’re thinking about dropping), and then I sleep until about 6. I started to go to day care because Mommy is back at work, so I come home pretty tired from all the activity there. I was a green and blue dinosaur for Halloween.

Age: 2 months
Height: 23 inches
Weight: 12 pounds 11 oz
Nicknames: Baby Pooch, Little man, Captain Crabbypants, Smiley
Likes: Being double swaddled really tight, my loud sound machine, playing binky bop, kicking and moving, smiling, the car toy with blinky lights that roars like a lion and sings songs, my star that has blinky lights and sings songs, my Big Sister Morgan that roars like a lion and has blinky eyes and sings songs.
Dislikes: Taking medicine, Momma picking my toenails, being strapped in to my car bucket, shots.
Notes: I’m taking medicine that helps my tummy feel better, and it has really started to help my mood and feedings.  I really love to play and smile (I started smiling at about 5 weeks!).  I can almost laugh, but it sounds more like a cough to everyone…which makes it funnier!  I hit the bed at about 7 and Daddy feeds me my last bottle at 10, then I rack out for another 4-6 hours but I’ve been known to sleep for 8-10 hours on occasion.  I’ve found my hands and I love to shove them in my mouth.  I like to hold my head up and let it bob around while I take in the sights.  I make the same poop face that my sister did.
