My bebe

I love my baby so much. I have a little journal that I write to him in, and I just finished a page. So I'm feeling sentimental and very lovey. He is such an amazing little man, he's growing up like crazy lately!

He's very punctual. He was born on his due date, started up on all fours, rocking back and forth at 7 months exactly, and started crawling at 8 months on the dot!

He's very helpful with reading books, he turns the pages for us-usually waiting until we've finished reading, if it's not too long. He will sit there for 30 minutes and let us read to him.

He loves Elmo, he'll lay there propped up against a pillow, with his bottle and watch him. When he's finished with the bottle, he sits up and is fascinated. We go to the library and check a DVD out, it's 45ish minutes long and this child watches the whole thing.

My favorite thing we do every morning is cuddling in bed when he wakes up, he has his bottle and I read him books. My second favorite thing is after his morning nap, we put Elmo on and I have 45 minutes to read, do laundry or sleep on the floor next to him.

Up until just a few days ago, he has let me accessorize him with hats and sunglasses. Sadly, he has started to pull them off. This is very unfortunate.

I love my bebe.

Wish I could be there to watch all this cutness. I always knew you'd be such a good mommy.

That boy is sure a cutie. I'm excited to be moving a few blocks away from you so we can see you a little more often.

Cari, I just love the way you write about him! So sweet! O, believe me - I'd love a chance to come to Wyoming to see you all and getting to take your pictures would be a pleasure (Thanks for the compliment of wanting me to - I'm still unsure of putting myself out there with it, but I jumped in head first and am enjoying it). I've got to figure out how to get it to pay for my trips up there . . . hmmm that would be a real treat! I invited you to my blog!
