4 months old already!

Yep, it's true, Simon is already four months old. He has been busy rolling over, holding himself up on his arms when he's on his tummy and babbling like crazy. He went to see the doctor this week and his latest stats are:
15 lb. 11.5 oz. (75th percentile)
27 inches long (97th percentile)
44 cm head circumference (90th percentile)

I'll do my best to keep posting new stuff on the blog, but school starts on Tuesday so there may be long periods of time when I don't get a chance.

This is were the cool babies parked their strollers at Artstreet. Beers, bands and funnel cakes, what baby wouldn't want to go to Artstreet?


Awww...dad's with the babes.


Simon LOVES standing up. Look at those cute chubby knees.


"Don't even think about taking this binky away from me!"


"Mom says I'm adorable."


Some bath time fun for your viewing pleasure.

More Simon stuff...

Simon has been talking a lot lately. The talking sounds different every day. Sometimes it sounds like he's giving us a piece of his mind, like in the video, and other times it's just a lot of drool and cute sounds. He's also been having a growth spurt and eating like crazy.



He likes to fall asleep in his bouncy seat and his swing now. The blanket definitely helps him get in the mood for sleep.


Holding his own bottle! Pretty impressive since he hasn't had many bottles. Ahh, but he only did it this one time.


Karate skills on display.


Look at the adorable hat Gobi (Grandma Bobi) knit for him. The kid really can wear a hat well.

Good Morning!

Here's a little video mix of some of the stuff Simon has been up to lately. Enjoy...

This weekend

Simon had both of his ladies over this weekend. Madisyn came over on Friday night and Lola was over on Saturday night. He's already a playah.


They love watching the bugs together.


Lola telling Simon what dorks their parents are.


Simon checking out his new flash cards. He LOVES them. Thanks Andrew & Cherie!

Howdy

Simon started day care yesterday. According to his report card he did really well, except for being scared of all of the new noises. He also painted his feet, sang Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater and listened to some Mother Goose stories. He was completely wiped out when he came home. So wiped out that he slept through the night for the first time!

Simon checks a melon for ripeness at the grocery store today. He's so helpful.


He likes to fly, but you have to beware of the drooling.


More flying.


Passed out cold on papa's lap.


Putting up with another kiss, does it ever end?


Even the dog wants to kiss him.

Visitors abound!

I know it's been awhile since I've posted anything because we've had company for the past two weeks. Simon's Aunt Karla came first for a week and then Uncle Frederic and Gimbo (Grandpa Jimbo) came for a week.











Simon's been holding his head up on his own so he gets to play in his jumparoo and sit in his bebe pod chair.


He's still working on sucking his thumb. He's getting a lot better at getting his hand to his mouth, but he often gets a bunch of fingers along with his thumb.

General cuteness...


He loves going for walks in his stroller now. He gets to sit up and look at everything going on in the neighborhood.


More cuteness...
