It's fruit cereal....it stinks!

Today I stayed home with Andrew while Danny went into work...we've been (at this point unsuccessfully) attempting to quarantine Danny....now I'm getting the sore throat too! Once he got back home, we gave Andrew his first taste of rice cereal-I guess this one is fruit flavored. While he didn't totally throw a fit, it's definitely something different! We've had crazy weather today-I was supposed to go to Tulsa & meet up w/J-me, but it went from 70 degrees to 32 with probably 5 inches of snow (so far). Needless to say, we've cancelled shopping :( As long as the roads are OK, I do plan on going to OKC tomorrow-meet up w/my folks and go to the OKC Just Between Friends presale & see if I find more goodies for Andrew! This was also a big week at school-we finally got Andrew's pictures back! I'm such a proud momma-the bunny is in one piece and Andrew's smiling...can't ask for anything more!

Randoms....

So last tuesday was Andrew's 4 month checkup-he's a whopping 14 pounds and 25.5 inches. He took his shots like a little tough guy...especially after he got a bottle;) He's still busy rolling over-definitely playing more, he bashes away at his activity mat (until he sees the camera, then it's 'I'm Mr. Shy')and he's started sticking out his tongue & somehow making it super-pointed...weird! Today he brought home his first art project....green shamrock with fingerpaints...I'm pretty sure Michaelangelo's legacy is safe! We'll see how the next few days go, since Andrew started eating 8oz., he's been sleeping longer....as in last night he slept from 8p-5a!!!!! This could be the start of a beautiful thing;)

And so it begins...

So last weekend (Saturday to be precise) was the 1st time Andrew rolled over-we were having dinner at Ken's in Iowa Park. He hadn't done it since then....until thursday, when I walked in for bottle time and found him on his stomach! Now, anytime he's in the crib, he pretty much rolls over...the problem being that (most of the time) he hasn't quite figured out how to get on his back again!

4 months and counting!

Today Andrew is 4 months old! He's been doing well-drooling like crazy, so we think teething has begun-we'll see how long it takes for a tooth to appear! He's grabbing and chewing everything these days-not quite holding a bottle on his own, but reaching for & stuffing it in his mouth-even while sleeping, as footage shows;). Although I was the nice wife (and didn't take time to get pictures....) Last night I was folding clothes, when I hear a bellow from the living room, "I need help in here!"....seems that Andrew threw up all over himself & his Daddy! I'm so very glad that he's not playing favorites when it comes to puke;) At daycare a couple of days ago, I heard the girls talking about 'who gets to take' this one little girl...I hear something that sounds like soft clapping (I'm getting Andrew settled in the carseat, so I'm not really noticing what they're doing) and then the one girl starts changing the little one's diaper....I realize what they were doing was 'rock, paper, scissors' for who had to change the diaper!! I was laughing so hard-I guess it does break up the monotony of poopy diapers! On an adult note: CONGRATULATIONS MOMMA!!! Yesterday was her last day to work for the US government-just a few months shy of 46 YEARS with the USDA. She's earned the right to enjoy herself!
