4 month check-up

Ok, so I'm a little late for this, it was actually a week and a half ago, but better late then never. My little man is growing so fast. He's 18 pounds, which I wasn't surprised about. :) 90th for weight and 85th for height, and his head is off the charts. Love my chunk monk. He got two more shots and seriously did not make a peep. He did so great! Much different from the last time he got shots.

I need to be writing down the things he's doing now so I don't forget, and so when I eventually get a baby book I can write it all down. :)

-He's been sitting up by himself for the past two weeks...I can't believe it

-His favorite thing to do is stand, and it's been his favorite thing since he was 2 months

-He's laughing all the time now, especially when his momma makes funny faces

-He loves to look at himself in the mirror

-He's been reaching for things for a while and is able to grab on now. :)

-He tried his first little bit of vanilla ice cream last night, courtesy of his Daddy, and surprisingly loved it.

I know there are so many other things, but I'll have to think. Love my little man so much!

AJ with his Daddy. Two peas in a pod.
AJ loves his Aunt Ni-Ni and she just might like him back. :)
He looks so big in this picture I can't get over it.

Funny Face

I know I just posted but I was taking some pictures and couldn't stop laughing at this face. I love my crazy boy!
He is getting so big.

Update

My sister was in town the last few days and we had a great time! I have a few pictures she took from bath time, but I don't have the ones with her and AJ, I'll have to post those later. Here are a few she took in the bath, and then some other from playoff weekend, and just fun home time!
He loves his Daddy so much.
Bath time is his favorite...except for when it's time to get out and dressed. Cass got a couple of pictures of him getting dressed, I'll post them later.
Sweet baby boy face.
Rep'n my team. I thought if we both wore Cassel jerseys then maybe we'd do better against the Ravens.....I was wrong.
He still looked super cute in the jersey, even if we got destroyed.
Love my baby boy! I don't have too many pics with him because I'm always the one taking them.
Fun standing time with Da-da
Having so much fun standing!
He's getting so strong! He'll be 4 months on Friday and is already sitting up on his own. Can't believe he is growing so fast!


Watching football together. Using Uncle Matty's boppy. Wish he could babysit sometime.

He was a little tired of me taking photos, but it's so hard because I love his little face!

Sorry there are so many pictures, I just had a hard time picking just a couple.

Hope you all have a great day!

A few of my favorite things...

- The way he snuggles me when he wakes up from his nap

- How he lights up whenever he hears his Daddy's voice

- How he stops eating half way through just to give me a smile

- When he whines while I'm not looking, then starts to laugh as soon as I look

- How he has discovered his hands and starting to reach for things

- How the most he ever talks to me is when I'm singing to him.

- How he smiles at anyone who smiles at him, even if he's in the middle of crying

My little man is growing so fast and I know in each new faze there will be a whole new set of things that I love...but I don't want to forget these ones.

Happy New Year!

Here is my sweet little man opening his first present. I think they were Air Jordan booties. :)
So it has been quite a while since I updated...not that there's anyone out there that really cares, but I like to pretend like I have followers. :)

The holidays were so super busy. We went to Rochester the day after Christmas to see Joe's family. AJ got to meet his Great-Grandparents. It was a sweet time, and of course I forgot my camera. I got a picture off facebook though. I love facebook.

The day after we got back from NY we had to pack to go and see my Dad, Step-mom and little bro Eli in KC. Can I just tell you that Eli is about the cutest little guy ever! Thing is I forgot my camera for this trip too. Yep, putting my nice camera to good use! Good news is we got to go to see my Chiefs! Even though it was an awful game it was still so fun being there and cheering them on. Bring on the Ravens baby!!!

So since I don't have any pictures from the trip I thought I would do a few from Christmas, and a video`. Our little man is getting so big.

Here is my little chunk monk with his Daddy. He loves his daddy so much, it's so sweet. I can't tell but it looks like he's working on a triple chin...
Me and AJ with the Christmas Tree. What a big bellied boy!
I watched my little nephew Cole-Cole a couple times a week, and he loves his little AJ. I had to get some picks.
I really liked this one a lot. What silly boys.
Cole was so excited about the snow, I had to take a few picks.
What a sweet faced little boy.
Love this smiley face! Can't believe he is almost 4 months!
Enjoy the video. Daddy is a little crazier with his boy then I would like, but he's survived so far... :) He sure does get some cute laughs out of him though.
