He Crawls

Yep, we have crawling. We have a picture but it's not appropriate for internet posting. We have a video, but I don't know how to upload it.
His crawling is like that of an inchworm-- scoot scoot scoot-- but he is most definitely on his hands and knees, and he's working very hard on cross-crawling. Already electrical cords, carpet fuzz, handweights, and DVDs are no match for the crawling wonder!

We went to the pediatrician recently. Philip weighs 23.6 lbs and is 28.25 inches long. This puts him a little above the 90th percentile for weight and a little under the 90th percentile for height. (Of course, wouldn't he have to stand for it to be height? So, length.)
His head is 47.5cm around. They said they wouldn't bother charting this measurement, it was so far off the top!

Bathtime is fun...


Only because I have my frog to keep me entertained.

Philip hogs the bed and he is just a baby.

Jon's Space P's space My space.

Wait, maybe it is JON that is hogging the bed!


Philip is a very mobile child. He does the inchworm scooching forward, and he somehow scoots backwards, and he can turn himself in a full circle on his stomach. He really really wants to crawl, but can't get his big ole baby tummy off of the ground yet. He has started tentatively lifting his hips up.
Even though he can't crawl yet, he has started getting into stuff. He moved twenty feet and managed to get his hands greasy in Jon's bike derailer all in a matter of minutes. If we're not careful, one day he will just roll out the door.
So, it looks like babyproofing is upon us.

Aunt Laurie Visits

Aunt Laurie made a surprise (not to us) visit. She officially declared Philip "less boring" than he was when she first met him, which was shortly after he was born.



The blurriness of this picture really irks me. Someone should photoshop it for me, because it really is great! So, until that happens, THERE IS NO BLURRINESS... THERE IS NO BLURRINESS.

Thank you.
