Been awhile!


Well, seems as though time goes by quickly when you are having a blast with your child! Life has been pretty great, and Dex is growing so much! He has such a personality, loves to smile and laugh, and touch EVERYTHING! If I am carrying him, he even tries to grab at the wall, it's like he has to know what it is all is about! He loves textures of fabric, and likes to scratch different fabrics that make noises when he touches them. He is sitting up quite well now, loves to jump with the help of mom and dad, and looooooves FOOD! He is obsessed with drinking from our cups, and most recently loves to suck water out of straws, also with the help of mom and dad. He lights up when he sees the dog or the cats, and he tries to put the cats head in his mouth. We are assuming that is his way of kissing him, or he is just a freak. Either or, it's pretty cute! He recently felt the grass between his toes, and thought that was pretty neat, and he is still getting used to the bright sun! I need to find him baby shades. He is sensitive to the sun like his mom and dad. We always tear up. He loves to be sung to, and is obsessed with my mom singing the intsy bitsy spider song, and he loves when I sing the ABC's..granted I did sing him some Red Hot Chili Peppers the other day..and he didn't mind that either. He has been sleeping so much better, and we are not sure why, but we won't jinx it! He goes down super easy, we just put him in the crib with his fishy aquarium, and turtle light, and pacifier, and he is good to go! We lucked out in that area! He is a pretty chill guy, and loves people, but at first lately has had a little stranger anxiety. I guess this is the age for that! He is very vocal, and loves to scream to get our attention if we walk out of the room. He just laughs when he does that, knowing he is being a little turd. We are excited to keep watching him grow and learn, and when he does we are just amazed! Daddy loves to sing Dex songs from the 70's, so he is slowly learning those tunes. Bath time is our fave! We love to play with him, and watch him splash around! Daddy loves to take naps with Dex on the weekends. Much deserved cuddle time. Dex is not crawling yet, and we are fine with that! We want him to stay a baby as long as possible! No teeth yet either!
Tomorrow is my big bday bash, and Dex will be staying the night at my moms for the first time! I am sure he won't mind, and Daddy and I will be partying it up, and ready to see him the very next day for mothers day/my bday!
