Late Nights

It's been a busy couple of days here lately. Sunday we went to the fair. Philip fell asleep about 10 and slept until almost 8. Then yesterday, he had to have shots. He did not enjoy them. He was crabby all afternoon and evening and finally fell asleep about 10:30. Then he didn't wake up until just after 9 this morning. I had to go check on him several times to make sure he was still breathing. He was sideways in his crib and his head was bent sideways because of the wall of the crib. Now he is lying on the floor and Stephanie is "playing" with him. Apparently he likes it because he is chatting back at her.

Tummy Time

Yay! Tummy Time!

He can lift his head up a little but he's also trying to stand? He's normally a happy baby but yesterday he refused to take a nap and he was getting on everybody's nerves. He's still sleeping now though. He got up at 6:30 to eat and then went back to sleep which worked out nicely since then I had time to get Hayden up and ready for the bus.

Doctor

Philip went to the dr last Thursday. He is now 13 pounds, 10 ounces and 23 1/2 inches long. So he's at the 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height. I was kind of excited that he might not be a "monster" like the other 3 have been. It would be nice to have a 1-year-old around who weighs less than most 3-year-olds. Then I looked in Steffi's baby book...At 2-months, she also was at the 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height and look how big she is now. She goes in for her 2-year-old checkup next month so we'll see exactly how big she really is then.

Shirts

I just came across this quote by Jeff Foxworthy that describes Philip perfectly. "Did you know babies are nauseated by the smell of a clean shirt?" Luckily, they don't stay clean long.

Right now he is lying on the floor talking to the ceiling. Or perhaps he can see the tv out of the corner of his eye and thinks it is someone he knows. He's been crabby this morning. Don't know why. He slept pretty good last night. He is a bit melodramatic though. Gotta go.

New

What's new, you ask? I talk now. And I smile a lot. I like my Aunt Peggi. But I don't like to just sit in my carseat unless we're actually in the car and moving, then it's ok. Other than that, I like to hang out in the kitchen and watch people. I especially like it when they get down next to me and talk to me.

Sleepy

The baby is still sleeping. It must be hard work making sure Mommy wakes up every couple of hours during the night. I don't know what was wrong with him last night but he'd better sleep better tonight!
