Update

New "snort" face he likes to make.


We are all doing well. The weather has been better, so we have been outside more. I even went swimming this week! The water was a little cold yet, but I had fun.
My people joined a gym this week. I don't know if I like that. They should get all their exercise with me. They are excited because they have day care while they work out. Heidi and Marshall went today.
The bad neighbors are GONE!!! The owner started to clean up but hasn't been back in a few weeks. The place looks better, but not great. Fingers crossed he gets good renters.
Marshall is doing well. He is teething, but is doing ok. He is trying to crawl..but doesn't quite get it. It wont be long. He sometimes pulls my fur. I don't like that. I hope my people teach him to throw soon.
Enjoy the pictures!

Swim and lunch

Marshall doesn't quite fit in the stroller yet, but it is cooler than his carseat.

Those are not teeth (yet). He is working on one though..

Play date

We are cute!

Big Day

Happy Easter Everyone! I got a bunch of new toys, Marshall got some books. It was fun. Marshall turned 5 months old today! He also had his first real food! (rice cereal) My people are trying to get the basement empty.. one picture is the spare bedroom with the futon now. One is the new totally cute shower curtain Heidi bought.

You can put it on the board... Yes!

First White Sox game of the season and Marahall was ready. Sox won with a great 3 run home run!

Marshall's day

Marshall likes to sleep on his tummy in a corner of the crib. He is sleeping about 9-12 hours a night. (Yeah!) He had a bath and then off to the Museum of Flight with Lynnette an her kids. Even though the 2 babies had no idea what was going on, everyone had fun! He can get up on his knees, he can get up on his hands... he doesn't do both at the same time. Yet... I don't think it will be long and he will be chasing me around the house.

Play time/ Nap time

Where is Spring?

I know we haven't had it as bad as many of the rest of you... because we are not supposed to. That is one of the reasons we live here. It is snowing this morning. It is a wet snow, nothing is sticking, but we have had a long enough winter. The passes are getting 2 FEET of snow today. I guess it is good for the economy. Well the ski lifts and the power companies!
Marshall had his 4 month check up yesterday. He is very healthy! He did not have a calm reaction to his shots last night. There was some screaming. He had his first Tylenol ever yesterday. I know they want babies to take the medicine, but do they really have to put high fructose corn syrup in it? Here are his stats.
head 16 1/2
weight 16 lbs 10 oz 80%
height 26 3/4 in 95%
We are going to have to go car seat shopping soon. Any recommendations? Heidi looked at a Safety 1st brand convertible car seat that looked good and goes up to 80 lbs. Just what I want, a bigger car seat in the car. I have no room back there now.
I will try to post some picture later. We dont have any new ones though.
The neighbors have moved out. Well the people have. There is a garage full of junk and 2 cars still there. The back door has been wide open for a few days. The owner was there Sunday and didn't look real happy.
I promise all of this post is true. We aren't pulling any tricks like last year!
