So I wanted to start a blog, mainly because my wonderful sister-in-law does it. It is a great way to keep people in touch with our family with out the time involved. I have quickly realized how much time I DON'T have.
The first three months of Robert's life was rough on Mommy and Daddy to say the least; but have since gotten much better. Three months was the turning point like everyone said!
Robert is now 3 and half months old!! Kevin and I weighed him on our scale and the chunkster is 19 lbs. WOW!! Boy has he grown. We were looking back at the pictures of when we brought him home and that first week. He was so small:( I know that we will have the rest of our lives of looking back and saying that same phrase and the very popular "he is growing so fast". I am enjoying it. He is sitting in his Bumbo chair. That is a chair that holds him up as long as he can support his own head. Which surprisingly is a task when you have to concentrate on doing that and trying to think about your hands and trying to get then to do what you want. He also has rolled from belly to back a handful of times. He does it more for Daddy than for Mommy. I better get used to that. Robert is already starting to try to stick things in his mouth. When he can get it TO his mouth! He likes playing on his play mat and sitting in Mommy's lab and talking to me!! That is great! It is like he trying to tell me things. He really goes to town talking on his changing table. This is when he is finding his voice, he lets out the cutest yells.
As far as this blog goes, I will try my best to keep it up to date. My husband seems to think that it will be like other things and will go to the wayside when I get to busy. Hopefully I will not let that ring true. So I hope that all my family and friends enjoy reading about Kevin and I "Raising Robert".
Lisa, I'm so glad you have a blog now! Wow, Robert is already 19 lbs??? Nate was 17 lbs at his 6 month checkup, and I'm thinking he's around 20 lbs now. Yes, babies do grow up way too fast! I'm so excited to read "Raising Robert"...I'm sure you'll have some funny stories to tell. :) Love ya!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!! I love your blog, Robert. You are a cutie and look really good in orange. I was really disappointed that you could not come up this fall for the OSU/Texas A&m game. Why did they have to schedule it for the middle of the week?? You are growing fast, but your second cousin, Carrie, got most of her baby weight by the time she was six months old, too and then she only gained two pounds the next six months. I will really miss not getting to meet you this fall (I would like to see your Mom and Dad, too!). Keep on growing! Love you all, Auntie Rita
