We're Rolling!!!

While we were in Vegas last weekend, Maxton rolled over for the first time! I had been trying to get him to roll from his tummy to his back, but he rolled from his back to his tummy on his own! Apparently he already knows how to do things better than his mommy! He's pretty funny to watch- he can only roll to his right side and once he gets onto his belly, he is stuck. He hasn't mastered rolling back over yet, but he is sure exploring what he can do!

After

He has also started rolling not only when I want him to, but also when he gets bored with whatever he is playing with- While playing with this toy, which I thought might keep him contained, he squirmed and wiggled and did a bunch of half-roll overs until he made his way out of the toy- Well, his legs at least made it out!

Our Little Marley Man

So my sister and brother-in-law, Mandi and Craig, gave Maxton this super cool Bob Marley onesie when he was born. We had him in it the other day and saw my other sister, Erin, with her rastafarian beanie on and decided to see what Maxton would look like as a true Bob Marley fan- We thought it was pretty funny!

Happy Valentine's Day!

For the past month or two, Jeff has really enjoyed going to the indoor quad and motorcycle races that are close to our house. It just so happened that the last race of the season fell on Valentine's Day, so since I hadn't ever gone with Jeff, and since Jeff really wanted to go, we decided that is what we would do. I was a little hesitant to take the little man, but we shoved the little foam earplugs in his ears and hoped he would be good. He seemed pretty fascinated with watching them race around the small track- And he even fell asleep for a little while until the bigger quads came out- It was pretty fun!

4 Months Old!!!

So I decieded that I should just start posting as things happen instead of waiting until I need to empty my camera- Hopefully this will force me to post more often and will help me to not miss any of the fun things we are doing.

Maxton turned 4 months last week! I can't believe it! We had his 4 month checkup and he weighs 20.2 lbs and is 27 inches long! WOW! He is in the 98th % for height and weight! What a big boy! I can't believe how much he is growing up!

We are still trying to get Maxton to roll over. He does ok on his belly for a little while, but then gets tired and grouchy, so we are slowly making progress towards rolling over. Maybe someday soon he'll just surprise us and do it on his own-

Yesterday, Maxton had been on his belly for a little while when he all of the sudden let loose and barfed! Gross! He must have been tired of holding his head up because he just dropped his face in the big puddle of puke! Double gross! I pulled his face out of the puddle and rolled him over and couldn't pass up a picture of the cute little puke face!
