Easter

Pictures are slim this year, but here is some proof that Easter happened at our house.

The spoils

 Bubbles!!

 Mmmmmm truck.

 Yes!

 It is impossible to get this girl to smile for pictures.

 A family shot didn't go so well either.

 Bring on the eggs!!

Whoa Baby!

Nine months.  That's how long this little guy has been in our lives.  Some days it feels like ninety, some days nine.  Luckily we love this little guy and his smile melts any one's heart.

Here's what the Doc told us today:

Head - 47.5 inches/95th %

Weight - 21.5lbs/63rd %

Height - 30.5 inches/97th %

A solid, long little baby with a humongous head!  It's all the brain power he has inherited from his mother.

He is a happy, healthy little guy.  Into everything, motoring around everywhere.  He cruises along the couches, walks with the aid of his little push car, empties the oven drawer and any cupboard he can open.  When the dishwasher door, bathroom door or fridge door open, there's Truman!  He loves watching his sister, having Dad try to throw puffs in his mouth, watching out the windows, crawling, playing in the bath, eating (and more eating), riding in shopping carts, eating his socks, and many other entertaining activities.

His hair still looks like he stuck his finger in a socket and he is working on teeth #5 and #6.

He loves to babble as he crawls and says "mamamamama".  He laughs uncontrollably when a stuffed Eeyore (or any plush animal) is thrown in his face and he loves to be scared (although it is getting harder to accomplish that).

He doesn't have a favourite food...he loves them all.  We will see if that changes with the introduction of table foods, but I am guessing it won't.  He will just make me have to increase the food budget.  He is working on getting the sippy cup down...right now he enjoys chewing on the straws and having water dribble down the front of him.  

We are sure we will have a troublemaker on our hands as he gets older, and can get into more and more spaces and places.  Luckily it looks like his sister will be the first one to tattle on him, so we should be able to keep it under control!

He is a happy addition to our family, and is always willing to give us a smile.  And try new things.. (sorry for sideways videos)
