Just Life

I thought I would share a few more pictures of Greg from the last few weeks; well, since he turned four months.



 Greg surprised us the morning he turned four months by pulling up to all fours and rocking back and forth.  I didn't quite catch it on camera; here he has collapsed a bit.  He gets so frustrated these days because he can't move around...though he is learning to roll to what he wants.

 I love his expression!

 A friend took me to a yard sale and I was able to find a few things very inexpensively!  The one thing I was looking for was a Jump-a-roo because Greg loves to jump these days!  I didn't find one, but I'm going to keep looking.

 I was folding laundry on the bed, and Greg decided to help me by unfolding all the piles he could reach. :)


 He likes to pull his knees up these days, or try to stick his feet in his mouth, or use his feet to propel him to places.



Smiles!

Growing Up

Greg is four months and charms us daily with his new skills and smiles.  He is a happy, content, peaceful child.  And yes, we're both biased and easily entertained. :-)  He likes to roll over and is working on sitting up.  But you don't want text, do you?

First, we took this crazy, but fun trip to TX so Greg could meet Brian's family.  We certainly enjoyed our visit, though Greg decided that crying for 20 + hours in the car was a good idea.

Doing what Greg does best: playing!

Playing with cousins--and Aunt Katie.  Jenny took a special interest in making sure Greg had his pacifier, toys, and a smile.

More cousins!

Like Father, like son...

Planting our balcony garden.  We planted a variety of flowers (pansies!!), zucchini, squash, lettuce, spinach, lots of herbs, peppers, and tomatoes.  We'll see what kind of crop our garden produces this year!

Brian's job was cleanup and heavy lifting while I put Greg down for a nap and made dinner.

Greg sitting up all by himself!  Looks more like the "Leaning Tower of Pisa."

My cute boy!

Greg loves to sit up on the sofa.  He has figured out how to sit up and roll to me on the sofa when he wants something.

There are lots more pictures to post, but I'll wait until later this week to post them (don't want to slow the internet too much).

Smiles!
