Let's face it, no one wants to hear about the parents. All they want are the kids, pictures of the kids to be exact. So here you go, all kids, all the time. Kind of like one of those cable news channels with a 24/7 ticker along the bottom.

Our Little Man
Another 2 months, another Doctor's appointment! Yay for shots!
Truman was a trooper this time around. Yes, there was screaming and crying, but before I could even pick him up he had stopped. I told him if he was older we would have gone out for ice cream. Oh well, another time.
So here are the little guy's numbers:
Head - 45cm; 71%
Length - 28inches; 93%
Weight - 16lbs 13oz; 37%
Wow! Double digit percent for weight!! Good going buddy! Must be from the enormous amounts of cereal, veggies and fruits you eat all day every day. Whatever works, right?
He is a healthy little guy, growing like a weed....still long and skinny. Not sure where exactly he has put the weight, but it's somewhere on him.
When the boy has a full tummy, he is a happy, happy little man. He is (usually) all smiles and moves a mile a minute. I think the only time he is still is when he is asleep.
He can roll like nobody's business, is sitting up on his own somewhat, drag himself across the room and has now begun to stick his butt up in the air when on his tummy...crawling is not far away and I am scared. Truman is a very curious little guy and I think every drawer and cupboard better start preparing now. He loves watching his sister play and follows her around wherever she goes. He can be very vocal, especially when getting his diaper changed. I guess he feels diaper changes mean it's time to talk. He is very grabby and will try to get anything within his sight (so watch out!). His hair is growing fast, mostly straight out over his forehead, and he still has his big, blue eyes. He is not a bug laugher, instead he will smile so big you think he'll eat his whole face, but no sound will come out. When he does laugh it is more like a little grunt/huff noise. Still funny, but not a giggly, bubbly little laugh. He is just starting to fill out 3 month pants, but can pull off a 6 month top no problem-o!
He is so much fun to have around and loves to be held, played with, have someone always in his sight. We love having him in our family.

It was a fun holiday in Idaho this year. I know Miss T enjoyed having so many cousins to play with all day, pretty much every day! Now it is back home, no traces of Christmas to be found and back to reality. Hopefully Miss T's toys will keep her occupied for a couple days at least! :o)
