green beans!!

YUM

Paxton is getting the hang of this and now likes his green beans, I can't wait to try another flavor and see his reaction :)

 This boy is a messy eater!  He wants to stick his hand in his mouth after every time he takes a bite. 

green beans?!

We tried to feed Paxton some green beans for the first time tonight.  He didn't seem to like if very much, he kept giving me that face :) 

i love my family

I love looking at pictures of my cute little family and I can't help to think about how grateful I am of Paxton's wonderful birth-mother, Ciara.  She truly is a strong and amazing woman!  We are so blessed to have this sweet boy in our family.

growing fast

4 months old

 Head 50%                   

Weight 50%   15lbs 7 oz.

Height 90%    26 1/4"

It's amazing how quickly they change!  I posted things he was doing at 4 months and just 2 1/2 weeks later some of those are different.  So here's a few new things...

*Now is taking 8 oz. bottles along with rice cereal once a day

*Has rolled over both ways, but still only does it occasionally

*Is starting to sit up by himself for about a minute or so!

*He still doesn't laugh that much.  I think he's trying to laugh because he wheezes alot and it's usually when he's excited or being tickled or something.  The doctor doesn't know what to think about the wheezing.

*Likes to make farting noises with his tongue.

*Holds his feet... I LOVE this!!

Which end is that noise coming from?! Ha Ha  I love this boy, he cracks me up!

Paxton is growing up too fast, but we are loving every minute of it!

first taste

When to start rice cereal?  Our plan was to wait until after the Ranch and after his doctor's appointment so we could get some guidance from the doctor, but...

we were too impatient or Paxton was?!
Everytime we sat down to eat, Paxton wanted to be on our laps with his mouth open and reaching for the food, I think he was ready :)

Remi drove 2 hours to the nearest grocery store and 2 hours back to buy some rice cereal, what a good dad!  And it was worth it, Paxton LOVED it!!

He was part of the entertainment for the evening.  It was fun to share this moment with a bunch of family!

Home Sweet Home

 Yeah, we are home at last!  We had a blast on our vacation to the Ranch, but it is always nice to come home!

(Paxton is sticking his tongue out even more than before!  He figured out how to making farting noises with his mouth and he also blows bubbles, he's such a boy.  He makes us laugh!)

We are exhausted from the 8 hour long car ride and lots of un-packing, laundry and cleaning.  So... this is all you get for now because there are a ton of pictures and videos that I need to sort through!

(We did a lot of napping on our vacation, it was nice)
