I promise I will get back on track with these things. There should be a graph made that shoes the correlation between having multiple children and blog posts decreasing.
Anyways,yes, you are only five months old even though you wear nine month sized clothing. You are a big boy. Your cheeks are extra chubby and I thoroughly enjoy them. Everyone thinks you look just like Abe, but I do not think so. While Abe had some chubby cheeks, yours are WAY chubbier.
So, this month a lot happened. You were baptized, first of all. And, it was quite a celebration! Lots of family, friends, and food. And, of course your debut in a white outfit with a crazy hat that we did not make you wear in public. You were a good boy at the Church -- you ate, burped, and pooped in just the short time that we were there. Your hair was banging that day. Everyone thought we put product in it,but I think it was just the baby oil from your cradle cap.
You are a very active little guy. In fact, I am becoming a bit alarmed. You have already tried to crawl. You can get up on all fours and rock, but when you try to take one step, you sort of fall down. But, that does not stop you from getting to where you need to go. You are very determined to move, so you basically just throw your body around and reach your arms to get around. It is quite impressive. I am sure this is just a preview of what is to come, and every once in awhile I have visions of you jumping from the top of the stairs or climbing on the counters into the cabinets (hey, I did it too).
We have just started giving you cereal. I think you like it okay -- you are more interested in the bowl. Why mess with this spoonful crap, when I can have the entire bowl? I am pretty sure you would try to eat a hamburger if it was in front of you. I don't think we will have a problem with you being a picky eater.
I really like watching the way you and Abe interact. Even though you are still little, you already love your big brother. Your eyes follow him around a room when he is in there, you love playing with his big Buzz Lightyear (okay, more like "banging on it"), when he says the word "PORK!" you laugh so hard. I wasn't sure how it would all work out between the two of you -- especially how Abe would treat you and what he would think of you. But, I think you are pretty lucky because Abe seems to like you okay. I think that you guys will do a good job taking care of each other when you get older, and for a Mama, I don't think you can ask for much more.
Love,
Mama
(PORK!)
