early bird.

the last couple of days stetson has been waking up around 6:30am....a little earlier than usual.  he usually wakes up sometime between 7 & 8.  so even though 6:30 isn't much earlier, i sure feel a lot sleepier.  however, it only takes seeing that little face for a split second and i temporarily forget how tired i am.  these pictures were taken this morning at 7:30.  he had already eaten and gotten cleaned up and was ready to play....i think he lasted til 8 before he was ready for a nap.  is that the most precious face you've ever seen or what?!  after being at work for the past 2 days, i'm so glad i get to be home with him for the next 5.

ready for church.

he looked so cute this morning when i got him dressed for church that i had to take a picture!

what a happy boy.  he is growing so fast.  he looks bigger to me all the sudden.  he's eating a lot more right now so i think maybe he's having a growth spurt.  he usually eats half of a jar of baby food and last night he ate a whole nother jar.  he's also drinking his formula out of a sippy cup (the transitional ones with soft tops).   it's so cute when he grabs the little handles and pulls it up to his mouth.

btw...if you drop a bowl of baby oatmeal and bananas on the way out of the microwave, it makes a HUGE mess.

this has been a big week for stetson. he is talking up a storm and using a lot more consonant sounds. he is grabbing everything and shoving most of it into his mouth. along w/ the constant kicking he has started moving his arms a lot more. when he sits in your lap he slaps your arms over and over. it's adorable. he holds on to you when you hold him, which is something i've been waiting for.  he is eating his fruits and vegetables. he is a vegetarian.  stetson says, "the vegetarian lifestyle just makes sense. " i told him that it was a little trendy, but he didn't seem to even acknowledge my comment. which we had to have a talk about.

he is the best thing ever.
