Roly-Poly

Michael finally made the roll from his back to his belly for the first time Sunday morning before church! Ryan and I were pretty proud. He's managed to make the roll a few times since then and when he's on his belly, he moves his arms and legs like he is swimming. The kid is all over the place in his crib too! He got his 4 month shots at the Health dept. yesterday and he weighed in at the doctor's office today. He is now 11 lbs 6oz, which is in the 3rd percentile for his age. His length was 23 3/4 inches, which is in the 10th percentile. He is a little squirt! A pair of 3-6months pants fell to his ankles at a baby shower on Saturday. He was a little embarassed in front of all the girls! He has also begun to laugh at us quite a bit lately; we love getting to spend time with our boy!

New things

Mr. Michael is trying to roll himself over, but can't quite figure out how to tuck that arm and make it all the way.
Yesterday he found his left thumb and has been sucking ever since. This little guy just keeps changing on us! He is such a blessing!

Studious Sam

Check out Samson sporting my specs! He's such a smart dog!

Snow!

We woke up to a pretty snow covered yard this morning and I thought I should take a picture of Michael in the snow. He doesn't have a snow suit, so here he is in front of the glass door.

Almost 4 months!

I can't believe our little boy will be four months old this week (Jan. 24th)!! Time is flying by and he is changing so quickly. Last week his first tooth started coming in and Baby Orajel became our best friend!!

Samson is such a good sport!

Our little man still doesn't like tummy time, but I was able to snap a picture one day before he rolled to his back.

Michael loves to sit with his daddy. If you haven't noticed, Ryan likes to wear that t-shirt around the house!

Samson and the Bulldogs

I forgot an important picture when posting about our Christmas---Samson!! When Michael arrived this past September, Samson was demoted very quickly! But my mom didn't forget about him. She gave him a gingerbread man that sqeaks (thanks momma!) and he is still carrying it around the house all the time!

I just love this picture of Michael from Christmas day. Of course he is supporting his favorite team in the picture. We were very proud of the Bulldogs winning the Sugar Bowl this year. Goooo Dawgs!!

Christmas 2007

We headed south for Christmas this year. Michael spent his first Christmas in GA! We had a great time visiting with family and friends. Ryan and I even had our first date since we had free babysitters. We saw a movie and went to a Christmas party. Here are a few pics from the trip.

He was thinking about the long trip ahead as we left Indiana.

Visit from the Langford's

Before heading home for the holidays, we enjoyed a visit from our good friends, the Langford's. Here are a couple of pictures of Caleigh (their 18 month old daughter) eating some spaghetti.

Things got a little messy!
