"Help! I'm stuck".


Helping mom with laundry.


A bit worn out after a visit to the park.

Swings. Feet. Chubby Legs.

Mom decided it was time for me to try out the swing.
I think I like it, at least when it's warm outside.
"I'm a model"...
I spend a LOT of time holding my legs up.
Mom makes me go outside, even when it's windy.

Like I said, a LOT of time...it's helpful when being changed...and I can even taste my feet :)
UNC Tarheel socks, thanks to Emma!!

Weight: 15lbs 13.5 ozs (50th percentile)
Height: ?? (10th percentile)
(and I was told he looked big?!?)
babbling a TON
loves his legs/feet
getting better at sitting
slides himself backwards on his belly
hates to have his nose suctioned out (been very congested the last week; having to sleep part of the nite on mom at a slight incline)
very interested in watching us eat (waiting until 6 months to start food)

Not much happening here...the sun has been showing up once in a while. We try to go out daily just for some fresh air. We have started packing for our trip to Iowa/ND. Rorek has 3 suitcases/bags and I have one. Goes to show how packing changes with a kid. Although, most of the stuff will stay in Iowa once we come back here. It's odds and ends that I won't have to bring next time when we move.

Andrew will be heading out sometime soon. Rorek and I will be having a TON of one on one time. I hope we don't drive each other too crazy ;). I always need that little break in the evening when Andrew entertains for a bit.

Saturday, Rorek and I are walking a 5k with a couple of my friends and their daughters. I'm hoping the weather is beautiful that day!! I wish I could run it, but I haven't gotten into running again (yet). I have a treadmill awaiting me in Iowa. I "get" the joy of putting it together, too. It will be great to be able to get a run or walk in while Rorek sleeps in the next room. And to have it there once we move and not have to wait for the movers to bring it.

5 months old!

My first snotty nose....saline does wonders to clear you out.

Check out my tongue!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Everything goes in Rorek's mouth

The side of the crib.
Fingers, blanket, and stuffed cow.
The lid to a sippy cup.

We haven't seen any teeth yet, but Rorek really likes putting things in his mouth.

New Talents




This week has brought on a few new "talents". Rorek now enjoys making noises with his lips which causes a lot of spit to come out(zerbers), he enjoys sucking on both of his fists, likds holding and sucking on his blanket and toy duck, has found his feet, is finally big enough for his exersaucer, and prefers to sit up and stand up (with assistance).

He's about 16lbs now (clothed). It's crazy how quickly babies develop and change.
