Naps

Today he took lots of little naps. His gums were givin' him some trouble, so Mommy and Daddy would do all the little things to let Cube fall asleep faster. He'd start out playing and then... silence followed by snoring. His sleeping habits are adorable. This was pretty much his whole day:

And today carrots made their way into his mouth. He ate them without even a subtle what-the-heck-is-this look. He liked 'em. And yes, I put him in a replaceable shirt and an unimportant bib because carrots stain. (Shout out to my mom for givin' me the heads up!)

At one point in the afternoon we took a trip to the Redbox and he got to marvel at some clouds. It's been real ugly here in San Antonio, and there are intermittent dark clouds that aren't pouring out rain. This movement is apparently amusing to 4 1/2 month olds.

Then we got home and more naps happened in between bottles. His teething can be a bother, but like I've said before, a little tlc can go a long way. (:

Spoiled

He was awfully spoiled on Friday. I made lasagna and brownies and a few people came over to hang out with Mommy, Daddy, and Cube. Everyone who came over just held him and talked with him and spoiled him!

Anyway, before the cooking began, we went to HEB and Grandpa's for a few. Of course compliments were received at HEB and Grandpa wanted to keep him. But how could I have company over without some entertainment? So he stayed with us.

The guest list for food consisted of:
Adrian- Rudy's friend that I've known as long as I've known Rudy
Rosie- One of my best friends; Cube's future god mother
Felicia- Rosie's youngest sister
& Grandpa- My Dad

Once again, all of witch completely spoiled the b'jesus out of this kid.
But he loved it, so I can't complain.

Food & a Friend

Breakfast: His Daddy fed him his first solid meal of the day. It consisted of a of oatmeal cereal with some rice cereal mixed in to add a little extra. They watched cartoons and waited for Mommy to get home from school.

Dinner: Rice cereal mixed with sweet potato. He likes the rice cereal more with stuff added to it. I tasted rice cereal the 2nd day he had it. Boy, that was disgusting; it's all pasty and flavorless. I get where the kid is comin' from.
Therefore, sweet potato cereal :) It's a hit. He ate every last spoonful- about 2 ounces to be exact. He loves food. I think he got it from me, and pretty sure a lot of other people would agree too. :]

Aurora: A little bit after dinner, Aurora's mommy invited us over.Without hesitation, we went. Brandy(Auroras mom) is becoming one my very good friends and we will probably hang out with them more and more as time passes. Cube and Aurora get along great. They have yet to realize they're both on the same boat, but they are aware of each other. Face to face, however, it's a different story- not as interested in each other, but they're getting there. It's so exciting to watch them grow and develop on different roads at the same time. Plus, they like looking at each other so that doesn't hurt.

Cube says goodnight y'all!

Catch Up (sat-wed)

SATURDAY

[grandma came to town!]

He had his tongue wrapped around that little ring. My guess is

that it was very tasty at the moment.

On our way home after a bar-b-q at his friend, Aurora's house!

Grandma, Mommy, and Cube had a lot of fun.

Aurora is 4 days younger than him

and has a dog named Bob. He likes dogs now. :]

SUNDAY

[Cube, meet Walker]

And they lived happily ever after.

He's starting to hold his own bottle from time to time.

He's so cute with his little hands when he does!

Unfortunately, Grandma went home by this time and didn't

get to cath this, but I'm sure he wishes she had, and a pic had to be taken.

MONDAY

[laundry day]

I put him on the clean clothes and he just watched me put clothes

in his hamper(the one with green) and we rolled it together to the dryer.

He was very content, and I think kind of sad he had to get out...

Although I would imagine that would be very cumfy. Lol

TUESDAY

[Hello, sweet potatoes!]

He loves loves loves his sweet potatoes!!

"Yummy yummy sweet potatoes!" 5 times fast

has an outcome of this face:

WEDNESDAY

[lazy day]

His johnny jump-up secretly doubles as a teething toy.

(Don't worry, I clean it regularly.)

After getting a little restless, we went to go see Daddy at work,

and, of course, everybody loved him and he loved everybody.

He's such a smiley little prince.

When we made it home, Mommy had to study for an exam

the next day(which is why I had to play catch up.

Sorry guys, but the semester is coming to an end, so I gotta start bucklin' down.

But don't worry- a day of his life will never be left out.)

This is what our life is lately while Daddy is at work.

Gotta study study study! Ttyl!
