It has been quite a while since I have posted anything about our little man. We have been very busy. For those of you who have not heard, we moved back to Amarillo during the middle of June. Jose is still working for CAT and I am trying to find a teaching job. That means, currently, I am staying home with Benjamin!!!! It is very nice that he does not yet have to be in daycare.
Little man weighed in at 10 lbs 4oz at his appointment on July 5th. That is exactly 3 lbs bigger than his birth weight. It seems like he changes and gets a little bigger everyday. He is such a blessing. We love him so much and are enjoying him completely :) He is accomplishing more and more. He can hold his head up pretty well for long periods of time and he is wanting to stand up. His legs get tired quickly so he does squats alot of the time he is trying to stand. This week He is starting to pull himself up when he is laying down.
He had a playdate today with his cousin Olivia and they sure did have fun. They layed on a blanket together and he tried to suck on her fingers. She was a little closer to him than I realized and she put her hand in his face so he just reached up and grabbed it and directed it straight towards his mouth. Yummy :) He did not succeed but did try pretty hard.
He still gets up every three hours at night but most of the time goes back to sleep easily. He does tend to have one point in the night or early in the morning where he wants to get up and play..... Which means mommy doesn't get to sleep. So as a good mommy, we get up and play for an hour or two and then we take a long nap about mid morning to catch up on the sleep we missed. He still loves his tubbie time. He likes the water pretty hot!! If it is not hot enough, he cries and you have to let the water out and start over. He is his mommy's baby, definitely. There are pics posted, most recent to less recent. HE sure is a cutie!!!!!!
