Happy Halloween!

Makin’ a Break Fer It!

Looks like Sean’s not perfectly happy in the crib Dad made for him. Yesterday morning (10/31), Mom found him crawling on the floor of his room…and I’m absolutely certain we put him to bed in his crib. I’ve lowered the crib mattress down one rung to its lowest point. I’m betting on 6 months max […]

Happy Halloween!

Getting so big!!!

Sean is growing like a weed. He weighed 23 pounds 6 oz and was 31 inches tall at his 9 month doctor’s appointment. That’s the weight of an average 13 month old and the height of an average 15 month old. He also took his first step by himself on October 12th (5 days before […]

If I could talk to the animals…

Sean and I had a pumpkin farm filled weekend this Columbus Day weekend. On Friday we went to Kuiper’s Family Farm with Aunt Bethie and “Aunt” Lisa to get apples and pictures with all the pumpkins. Then Mommy and Daddy took us to Johannsen’s Pumpkin Farm on Sunday. We went through the petting zoo and […]

Learning to walk is a full contact sport

Learning to walk is hard work! I’m cruising all over the place but gravity sometimes works against me.

Got food?

Looks like someone’s hungry. Sean’s doing great, growing and getting himself around. He’s >95% for height and weight at his 6 month appointment. He’s only ~3.5 lbs less than Annalise at her 18 month appointment. He can crawl/scoot himself just about anywhere he wants to go. Annalise better watch out for her toys!

Bobbing for Planets

Since our last post, we’ve been to Buffalo to help Grandma and Grandpa celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary…and Sean’s been getting closer and closer to crawling. He’s now easily rolling in both directions and frequently will arch his back with only his toes and hands on the floor for brief stints. It’s only a matter […]

Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’…

Gee Mom, that wasn’t so hard. I didn’t want an audience, so I waited until you went up to get Annalise out of bed before I rolled to my belly. You know, I’ve been trying for a while now.

How the time flies…

Sean is getting so big! He was 18lbs, 4oz at his 4 month doctor’s appointment. He is sitting up by himself longer and with less help from the Boppy pillow. He is thisclose to turning over from his back to his belly and has turned over once from his belly to his back. Good job, […]
