16 Months!

My little man is growing up waaaaay too fast!

Last week we had what should have been his 15 month check up but since we were preoccupied with the move it took me a bit to find a pediatrician that we liked. I settled on Harbor Pediatrics - they are wonderful for anyone looking for a new doctor.

Landon toddled all over the exam room while I filled out all the paperwork and chatted with the nurse. Little man is now 25 1/2 lbs and 31 1/2 inches! He's grown almost an inch already since we moved two months ago!
There are about 5 pediatricians in the practice and we saw Dr. Drummand - she's very nice and I think we'll like our visits with her. She went over Landon's development over the last 16 months and basically just got to know us and our family history. He's right on track for everything developmentally and she thinks he's doing just perfect. {We knew that though right???} :)

So in other news, I came home from my photography class tonight to find Landon still awake - which is really weird cause it's almost 9pm usually by the time I get home. Well, turns out, Adam laid him down like normal around 8pm but that little guy escaped from his crib!!! He made it all the way downstairs {safely thank goodness} before he was discovered. He apparently thought it was histerical?!
Great. I'm hoping it was a fluke... because I'm so not ready for a toddler bed yet!

Oh, he also put his shoes on all by himself today! Correct feet and everything! :)

My big boy!

Happy Mother's Day!

Well, my very first mother's day has come and gone. It was good, not great cause I miss my mom and would have REALLY loved to have spent the day with her but Adam's mom was visiting so it was nice to have her for the weekend. We didn't really do much though; he made us breakfast and gave me a sweet card that made me cry of course... postpartum emotions are still running wild I suppose :)

As far as Landon, well he isn't treating his mommy very nice this mother's day. He's 6 weeks old tomorrow... I'm not sure how that happened?!?! And everyone tells me babies have a growth spurt around this time... I think the same thing happened around 3 weeks but that seems like a distant memory at this point so this too will hopefully pass as quickly as it came. He's just been super fussy... if he's not sleeping or has a bottle in his mouth he seems to be crying bloody murder. And trust me... just because a bottle shuts him up doesn't mean he's hungry. If he's not... it all comes right back up!!! Which makes for lots of wardrobe changes... for mommy and for Landon :(

Anyway, I really should be updating more with all his milestones but gosh... who knew being a stay at home mom for a minute was this demanding??? Lets see... he lost his belly button stump finally so he got his first "real" bath at like 5 weeks....

Daddy thought pouring water on his face was a good idea :) He didn't seem to mind though.

What else? Oh... we got a smile and what might have been a giggle the other day... or it could have been gas?! He's not very consistent so we never can really tell?!
