Little Tazmanian Devil

Okay, so now that Davis can fit in his exersaucer, he loves it! He will seriously play in it for 45 minutes and not get bored. John and I will just stare at him while he is in there because he is in constant motion and is absolutely hysterical to watch. Midway through the video you'll see him "spazz" like the tazmanian devil (mom I'm not making fun of him, but how else do you explain it nicer.) He will nearly tip the entire toy over when he gets excited and it makes us laugh so hard. And by the way, I say "Dance" in the middle, I promise its not a bad word... just wanted to clarify in case you wondered. Have fun!

I'm a model, you know what I mean??

Davis fell asleep sitting up while I was working on the last blog. How sweet is he???

After he nodded off (and folded over), I laid him down with his blankie. I couldn't get over how big he looks here.

Okay, so either I am a really good photographer or I have the most photogenic baby in the world!!! Of course I am biased, but I could not believe how good these pictures turned out. I procrastinated posting the last blog and just had my camera beside me because I had downloaded the other pictures. I just happened to capture some really good shots of Davis as he was propped up on the couch next to me.

Our New House

We are building a new house about 5 miles away and took the first pictures this weekend. John is building it and we are taking our time to finish it because our house is taking so long to sell. We are hoping to move in by late winter/ early spring 2009. We are so excited and can't wait! I am very blessed to have such a talented husband..... or at least I hope he is talented. Just kidding! It will be awesome! There are a lot of young families in the neighborhood with young children. It will be a wonderful place for Davis to make friends and grow up!

Lights, Camera, Action

Here are a few videos and pics from the past month. Like I said, things have been so hectic since I have been back at work so sorry for the lag in time. Enjoy!

I have told many of you how relaxed Davis gets in his swing.... well that may be an understatement. Thank goodness for the seat belt is all I can say. He is an absolute limp noodle and usually it only takes 15 minutes of rocking for him to begin his "meditation" :-)

Big boy trying to help daddy on his computer. (Ignore the couch, hahaha, slipcovers in the washing machine.)

We bought Davis a Johnny Jumper because he is always crawling out of his skin. We figured this would be one more outlet for energy release. He loves it. While he hasn't quite figured out how to jump, he still likes to sit and swing and push off from the floor in it.

This was just a random morning on the couch. Davis is such a happy baby. The only time he gets fussy is when he is sleepy or hungry. He is just like his daddy!

I happened to catch this kodak moment one afternoon. The stars on his swing have been there the entire time, but for some reason he was enthralled with them this night. Too cute!

Mommy Back to Work = No Time to Blog :-(

Well, I am officially back at work.... well, kind of. I am working a partial schedule until my maternity period is up so right now I am just working Tuesdays through Thursdays. I will continue this schedule for the next couple of months. Beth is keeping Davis which is such a blessing because I have absolutely no worries when I leave him. The hardest part has just been prioritizing chores and time management. Now I completely understand what people mean when they say not to worry about the little things. So, for the last 2 weeks I have done laundry, but not actually put it up and John and I just kick the dog hair to the corners... jk. Seriously though, when I get home from work, all I want to do is snuggle with my little man.

Davis is growing so fast! We have our 4 month check up this coming Friday so I will update everyone on how much he weighs and how tall he is. I am betting he is at least 19 pounds and judging from how his body is hanging off the swing right now, he is off the charts on height. He is in no way fat, he is just long and has little chubby thighs. I could eat them up :-) He is consistently rolling over from tummy to back and is getting more consistent with rolling from back to tummy. He is still trying to crawl, he just looks like a little inch worm right now. It is hysterical! He absolutely loves to stand and when I hold him on my lap, I almost have to "warm up" because my arms get so tired from steadying him upright :-) He is also getting stronger with sitting up on his own. His little ab muscles are so strong it absolutely amazes me! And lastly, Davis is truly his mother's son! Talk about a blabber mouth! He talks all the time.... of course he has no idea what he is saying, but it is neat to watch him try to form new sounds. He really acts as if he has something so important to say. When he is not talking he is giggling

I guess that is really all. I am charging my camera right now so I can download some pictures and will try to get them posted tonight. Take care!

My first stay away from home!

My grandmommy and papaw were dying to spend some one on one time with me, so mommy and daddy decided to take a long weekend away. We spent all day packing for the big weekend and almost had to rent a UHaul because I have so much stuff. Eventually we shoved everything into the car and then we were off! When we got to Decatur, my grandmommy had bought me so many fun things... we could have left all my stuff at home. She is going to send mom some more pictures from the weekend but for now, we just wanted to share a few. While I was away at their house, I learned how to sleep through the night!!!! Thank you grandmommy and papaw! It is really cool now to go to bed at 10 and sleep till 6... mom and daddy are so happy too!!!

This is me in my new bumpo playing with a really cool toy. I didn't quite get it right at first, but grandmommy said that by the end of the weekend, I was grabbing the toy and making it spin.... just like a big boy! I am actually playing with it right now, as mommy is updating my blog.

"What the heck is that?"

"I am such a big boy!" My chunky thighs almost got stuck in my seat!!!

These are just some pictures that mommy took of me at home to show how big I am getting. I am 3 months old in these pictures and I am becomming quite the handsome dude!

My first lunch date!

Angie Nelson is a friend of mom's from work. She just had a baby girl a little over 2 weeks ago and guess what? We are going to be neighbors! They live directly across the street from where mom and dad are building our new house. Adyson and I are going to have so much fun playing and growing up together! This was our first lunch date. She is so precious and so little!!!!
