5 Months Old!

Moses turned five months yesterday. He'll sit up by himself for about 5-10 seconds before he topples over. The boppy is helpful to him.

Love those big blue eyes. I can't wait for him to grow some hair!!!

Two Teeth!

Here's Moses showing off his two teeth. We'd like to think that's why he's been so cranky recently! We think he's already working on his next one. Poor kid isn't getting any type of break.

He loves to sit in the exersaucer and play while he's at my mom's. After playing for about 10 minutes, he usually gets tired of holding himself up and it's almost like he's a little overstimulated. Look at it. . . I can't imagine why :-)

Fun with the Dohner Family

Moses had the opportunity to spend time with the Dohner family last weekend. He was extremely spoiled by his aunts & grandparents. I'm so thankful for loving families :-)

He thinks he's such big stuff holding his head up and rolling back & forth.

As you can see, he is drooling a TON and sucking on his bottom lip. His second tooth just came in this past week!

Four Months Old

Today, Moses had his four month doctor appointment. He’s just getting over a double ear infection; he’s working on his next tooth, and he got four shots today! He handled it all so well (or maybe it was the Tylenol). He let out one cry, his faced turned bright red, and then he was just fine. Well, a little out of it, but pretty good under the circumstancesJ He weighed 14lbs. 12 oz and the nurse measured him at 25 inches. Both of those are in the 50^th percentile. Mom thinks the nurse didn’t measure him properly and when we measured him, he was 26 inches long (this is the same nurse that measured him shorter at his 2 week appt than what he was at birth and the one who was off 6 inches on his head circumference at his 2 month appt., so I guess we have reason to believe she’s not very accurate!).

Micah is helping with Moses any chance he can get. He told mom that he wanted to feed Moses "all by himself." I do believe he's ready for a new sibling :-)

Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'

Last Saturday Moses met his new friend Reegan Thompson. He also met her parents, Jared and Julie. I think Moses and Reegan are about 2 weeks apart (Moses being older). They had a good time "playing" together!

Last week, Moses started rolling! He was rolling both ways (from his back to his stomach and from his stomach to his back), but some time in the past week he's forgotten how to roll from his stomach to his back. As soon as Moses is laid on his back he will immediately roll to his stomach, then proceed to get frustrated and start crying. We'll have to work on that in the coming weeks :-)

South Haven, MI

For those of you who didn't know it, South Haven is home of the National Blueberry Festival. We were able to enjoy delicious fresh blueberries, attend the Blueberry Pie Social, and even try some Wild Blue--a special Blueberry Lager.

More Michigan Fun

These pictures are of the fun times we had at the house. The location was great--only 1 1/2 blocks from the beach! The walk to downtown was a bit further, but still manageable.

Micah likes being with Moses for about 2-3 minutes, then Micah's over it. Eliza loves Moses, but she is still working on being gentle with him. I told Micah that Moses loves the song "My God is So Big" so the video is Micah trying to sing it to Moses.
