Dewberry Farm

We can honestly say that although Dewberry Farm seems like quite a lot of fun, it will probably be a better idea to take them again next year when they are older and can actually enjoy all the activities Dewberry Farm has to offer. Needless to say, we were clicking and clicking away until we got a few good shots. We always enjoy spending time with Aunt Heather, Uncle Kevin and Sophie! Daddy couldn't make it, but we made sure he was filled in on all the details of our trip!

Sophie the Giraffe

So I found this teething toy for Julian on the internet and was apprehensive to spend $20 on it since teething toys usually run about $5, but I did it and I am so glad I did!!! Within minutes we replaced his favorite rattler with Sophie the giraffe. Who knew this would be such a big hit?

P.S. We also got Sophie for Sophie... hope she loves it just as much! ;)

4 Months Old

Another month has gone by and my love for this baby just seems to grow and grow, which seems absolutely impossible! I enjoy literally every second I can absorb of his waking life and even when he's asleep I watch him sleep blissfully. He has brought so much joy into our lives and it just amazes me how much he makes my whole world and all my problems disappear the moment I set my eyes on him. I intend to capture every moment I can on camera and do not plan to ever stop.

Here is another month of my favorite RANDOM captured moments.

Heavy concentration...

I think he really liked his peas.

I love you, daddy!

Grammy loves me so much!

Chillin...

"Mom, can you please put the camera down."

"I said I can do this myself, lady"

Attempt #1

Final Attempt...

Happy baby in the mornings

On his way to Grammy's house.

What a BIG boy!

Come here, Kiwi.

Go Texans!!!!

Family time

A day in the park:

Bath time...

Solids

Technically one shouldn't start their baby on solids until 4 months, but being the eager mother that I am, I decided to start 1 week early. Why was I not surprised to see that Julian would be a pro at this eating solids stuff?! For his first official solid feeding he was very enthusiastic and even grabbed the spoon and put it in his mouth! Uhhhh, do 4 month old's do this???? I'm sure it wasn't very tasty (that's right, I didn't taste it), but he almost finished it all! So I guess it wasn't so bad. Again, not surprised!

This is what he was probably thinking...

"Oh yeah"

"This isn't so bad"

"I can do this"

"Give me some more, woman"

"All done"

I'm so proud of my boy who hit 3 milestones in one weekend. I love this kiddo soooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Way to go, Julian!!!

I am so excited and proud of Julian for accomplishing TWO milestones all in one day! It started with him flipping over from tummy to back today for the first time. Unfortunately, I happened to step away for a VERY brief moment when he did it. Maybe he wanted to get it right before he shows mommy and daddy what he can do. Although I didn't get a video of it today, I will definitely be with camera in hand and prepared for the next time! Until then, mommy is beyond proud! :)

Later in the evening I was surprised to see that he was able to sit unassisted for 10 seconds!!! Can you believe this all happened in one day?! What a proud mommy I am! Way to go, Julian!

Here is the proof:

1...2...3...

4...5...6

7...8...9... whoooooooooooaaaaaa!
