On the move

Hey Little Mitchie-moo!!
My goodness you are growing up waaaaay toooo fast!! It seems like only yesterday you fitted in my arms all little and snug!

You've been enjoying the jolly jumper - you smile and giggle and turn around and bounce up and down! It's all good until Gregory comes and tries to 'help'! He spins you around - although he isnt continuing this quite as much lately :o)

You were sitting on my lap last night and grabbed my thumb and started gnawing on it. You really enjoyed it - there was drool everywhere and my thumb went quite numb.... I put you on the floor and your dad and I saw your toothy pegs every so close!! aw! gooodness!

BUT!!!!! The biggest news I have yet is that you managed to make your way across the rug yesterday. I put you on your belly and the toys were out of reach. You pushed yourself forward until you got to the toys... you pulled with your arms and pushed with your feet - it was more a commando type crawl than a proper bay crawl but you got there!! You're also nearly rolling from you back to your front - you got over halfway then roll back to the other side (rocking) but you can managed your front to back. It wont be long!!

Your smiles bring a smile to my heart - even when I havent slept in 2 nights and it's 3am again! You're a smiley a boy, and when you see Gregory your whole face lights up! Especially when he gives you hugs. You were both sitting on my lap (which is happening quite often with you both feeling unwell at the moment) and you were upset so Gregory cuddled you and you stopped. Gregory was upset yesterday on my lap and you reached to him. It's amazing to see the bond that you two have.

Continue to grow my lovely boy!
*hugs*

Mitchie!!!!!!

Heya beautiful boy,
I've been watching you lots lately. I can't help but look at you!! Especially when you see me looking at you and smile back at me! Your smile is just amazing and so catching :o)
Last night Tres came over to visit - he's finally back from USA and Canada. He had lots of stories to tell and so many more. He got a little distracted in his story because he couldn't believe how much you (and Gregory) have grown since he's been away. You showed off your standing capabilities and how much you like tummy time when you push off your arms on the floor and lift your head high. He couldn't believe your wonderful smiley dimples and your cooing and gaaing!
It made me think about just how much you have grown up, how much bigger you are.... and that I still havent done your footprint yet!! (Slacker huh?! lol)

You watch everything Gregory does and put up with so much of his pushing, poking and prodding. I know he means well! last night he rolled you from your back to your tummy and you giggled at him the whole time!! LoL! Everytime Greg comes near you, you just smile - it seems at times that you try to hug him back! aww!!
You've started copying him too - Greg has been putting his fingers in his mouth & you've started doing this too! I think its more that your teeth are starting to come through more than copying!

This week you've really been grabbing at things a lot. Yesterday you were on the bouncer and pulling at the rings that were hanging down. It is fantastic watching you grow and I remember how lucky I am to have 2 wonderful boys :o)

Well must go - lots to do!!
*hugs*
