Four Month's Stats

On Thursday my little bro had his four month's appointment. I wish he were older already so that we can start playing together. He doesn't really do much. He smiles and coos and tries to laugh and smacks his gym mat animals and pulls on them and puts a lot of things in his mouth (whatever he can grab really) but I want to be able to play with him already.


So he weighed in at 15 lbs & 3 oz (born 7 lbs & 8 oz). His height is 24 & 3/4 inches and he was born 21 inches long. His development is right on track


He got 5 shots and one oral vaccine. He developed a fever during the night and had a stubborn fever through yesterday in spite of infant Tylenol and infant Motrin. He was cranky and fussy and not a very happy chap. We are all hoping that he will be feeling better tomorrow.


And onto a different note, my daddy gets me and my little brother our clothes (though Aiden gets most of my old clothes). My daddy gets us designer clothes because that's just the way he is. So I am wearing a Joseph Abboud outfit. You have to admit I look super cute in it...

My Little Bro

Every morning when my mommy takes me to school, my baby brother hangs out in the baby swing when my daddy takes a shower. So yesterday morning daddy took some pictures of the little guy. Isn't he just adorable?

And earlier this evening, my wonderful little brother gave me Toby train as a present. I love him!

Stuff

A few weeks ago grandpa Phil & Mima were visiting and I went with them and mommy to Maymont Park to see animals and stuff. Daddy got to stay home with baby Aiden as he isn't allowed to wear sunscreen yet and be out in such heat for more than a few minutes. I didn't mind him not tagging along because sometimes I just want to be the only one like it used to be before he was born.

It started out nicely. But it got too hot too quickly and I got very tired and wanted to be in the stroller which meant that mommy had to push me all the way up the hill to get back to our car when we were done with just a tiny part of the park. So at least she got some much needed exercise.

Here are some pictures

I start out ok...

That's it, I am wiped out...

And earlier this evening before bath time us boys were just hanging out:

Ok, I'm ready for bath now

Oh, and yesterday was Imma Day (or Mother's Day). Daddy made mommy breakfast. Then in the afternoon daddy took me to Lowe's (our favorite hang out on the weekends) and I picked out a card for mommy and got her a dairy-free, soy-free, decaf, cinnamon dolce Americano. It's all because of baby Aiden that she can't have milk, soy or caffeine. The card made her very very happy. The flowers daddy got her unfortunately made all of us very allergic so we had to get rid of them.

So Much to Tell

Let's see... my baby brother is already 3 months old. He is getting really big and 'talking' A LOT! He smiles a lot and moves a lot and sometimes he even sleeps a little bit better.



My daddy got me new tracks for my race cars. I LOVE my new tracks. You can see how much I love them if you watch the next two videos new track video 1, new track video 2


My baby brother got to sit in my former high-chair for the first time as my mommy decided it was time he sat with us when we had meals. He also seems really interested in our food so he might start solid foods sooner than I did


Here is my brother just hanging out







And here is a series of cute baby Aiden videos

Yesterday my mommy took Aiden to the breastfeeding support group that she started going to so that she could meet other mommies with babies. I'm glad for her that she's getting out. She never did that with me as she was too depressed. So it's good that she's getting out and about.



And today she took some more pictures of Aiden



And when I was having dinner tonight, baby Aiden was in his high-chair and was talking up a storm and I was talking back to him in his funny baby language

Ok, my mommy has to go to sleep now...

Just Me and my Bro Hanging Out...

Here's Aiden hanging out in his bouncy seat while we were having dinner...



I can hardly wait for him to be able to eat real food so that we can make big messes together...

And here he is sitting and chillin in the Bumbo seat that used to be mine when I was a baby





Oh, and here are a couple of videos too:

Two Months Stats

Ok, so my little brother ain't so little anymore...


Born 7 lbs & 8 ounces and is now 12 lbs & 5 ounces

Born 21 inches long and is now 23.5 inches long


What does he do you ask? Well, he smiles a lot, and not just when he has gas. He coos a lot. He punches and grabs his gym mat animals. He keeps my mommy up at night. And he adores me - his big brother.


Here I am with the St. Patrick's Day has I made at school




I think I hear my mommy saying something about not paying ball inside...




And look at those beautiful blue eyes




And that beautiful smile...




Isn't he just gorgeous?





Oh, and here are a couple of videos: one is baby Aiden on his mat video and the other is me playing with Abba video


I hope you enjoy these. My mommy does this instead of sleeping...


Oh, you can see more pictures at our photo website on the right

I said my first 6-word sentence today - baby Aiden was getting a little cranky and I said: 'Baby Aiden, what's wrong with you?'

So Much To Tell

Wow! The last couple of weeks have been crazy busy!!!

Two weekends ago my Sabba Gabi came to stay with us and my cousin Colin came to visit for a few hours on Friday and a few hours on Sunday as well. Of course my aunt Debbi and uncle Kevin were here with him but they don't really count. And grandpa Phil was here with them too. My mommy was a bit worried that I wouldn't want to share my toys with Colin but I did really great and even let him play with my trains and cars and we talked a lot and hugged and just had a blast. So here are some pictures and videos.



My mommy was in PJs all day long...


Me and Colin...





Me being nice to baby Aiden





And here are some videos: Everything is MINE now days my table video, my crackers video, I love my baby brother video


Then the next weekend my Sabba Gabi came to visit again. It was a shorter visit, but lots of fun nonetheless.
Baby Aiden already admires me

Ok, I think that's it for this update.

In between Sabba's visits, my daddy and I spent the entire week at home very very sick. We had the flu (even though I got the flu shot). My mommy was miserable being so tired and taking care of all the sick people with no sleep at all... She's a trooper!
