MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Phe Phe is on the go and feeling the holiday spirit. Crawling, standing, and getting around are his main priorities. Merry Christmas from Phesian to you!

HALF A YEAR OLD

My oh my does time fly. Just 6 months ago Phesian was a tiny little 6lb baby needing us for everything. Now he's a little tiny man that puts everything in his mouth and really doesn't want our help. He's gotten his first tooth, gets into position to crawl, rolls over, bounces up and down, sticks his arms out for you to pick him up, and can almost sit up by himself. He's grown magically before our eyes --26 inches long and 21 lbs 8 oz. It honestly takes a village (family) to raise a child. Phesian spent a whole month with his Granny and got to visit his great granny, uncles, cousins, and his little sister. Even though we missed him so much I'm grateful he can recognize the faces and voices of the family that he's come from. During the holidays we can get so caught up in the gifts that we forget to reflect on what's really important. We thank God for each other, a healthy child, and family.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2013!

5 months!!

he's a rockin' and a rollin'

The little man is at it again! He rolled over last night! I was so excited that I "helped" him do it again. Everything is funny to him so I'm certain he'll be giggling and rolling at the same time now. Ahhh the infamous car seat--he's only 4 months and he just isn't feeling it. His elbows go out to the side and then he stretches his legs all the way out so he cant fit. I mean each and everytime not to mention he doesn't want to be strapped in either. Oh and I caught him sucking on his toes--like really into it. If I didnt know better I'd think he had some sauce on them. Phesian is holding his bottle a little more each day too. I love his little displays of independence soon he'll be eating that baby food all by himself.

4 MONTHS

A picture is worth a thousand words but seeing him in person is worth many more. Mr. Phesian is now 26 inches long and 17lbs 6oz. A little giant literally coming in at the 95th percentile for height and weight. He smiles at everyone and tries to get you to talk to him all day. He's an expert with mini push ups now but still hasn't rolled over. We're patiently waiting on that milestone but on another note he can scoot. He likes to go in reverse and gets half way under the couch and then out comes the screams...because the pamper and his butt won't let him go any further. It's amazing to see the pictures of him before and to look at how big he's gotten. Those little white specks on his gums at the bottom are soon coming to haunt all of us but, until then he continues to chew on those mini fingers.

I tried to make him go to sleep but he said No no no. Phesian is three and a half months now! He's drinking milk like a champ. I'm thinking we're gonna have to buy a dairy cow soon so he can sip endlessly and when he gets teeth for the beef. He can lift his head all the way up now while laying on his stomach, push his pacifier in his mouth with a little help and seems to talk for hours without interruption. So if you ever need someone to talk to feel free to call he likes to talk about it. He's a healthy (I mean a lil chunky), happy, smilin baby. Soon he'll be rolling and scooting! Watch out world!

12 weeks/ 3 months

I've got a giggly baby. Everything is super funny--Im starting to wonder if he thinks its our looks. :-) Phesian has decided everytime its time for him to sleep its also time to wiggle. (But I've been told a man will get comfortable when he gets comfortable) I swear he has ants in his pants! He does something new everyday. He's super strong and can push up on his legs. He's figured out that his hand goes into his mouth and sucks on it more than ever now. Oh how I love our little man even when he wakes up in the middle of the night to play and I really dont feel like it. We put on a 12 month onsie after he took his bath and he pretty much fits it. These few months have flown by and I'm diggin his little personality!
