Martin loves to play in the mirror. He loves looking at that cute baby boy---so do I!!
I have been meaning to blog, but with this being Bryan's off week, I haven't found the time. He is currently cleaning the bathroom, so if he finds me blogging, he might harass me, but it is long overdue. Not a whole lot going on around here, except LOTS of snow. It has snowed three times since January 9. I love to look at the snow, it is beautiful, but enough is enough. We take Martin for his 4 month check up in two weeks....although that doesn't seem possible. I can't believe this baby boy is almost 4 months old, my oh my where has the time gone?
Since it is so cold outside, I have been dreaming of warmer weather. I am ready for spring so I can get outside and test out the new jogging stroller. I am really itching for a chance to use it. But, I really love SUMMER, and wish it never got below 80 all year. I can't wait to take Martin to the beach this summer, I know he will love it. He loves to feel everything, so I know he will enjoy all the different textures associated with the beach. He can feel the sand between his toes, and soft cozy beach towels, and the rough and smooth of seashells. And, of course he will enjoy the ocean or at least the pool! Bring on the warmer weather!!
I have a friend who just found out she is expecting, and I cannot be happier for her. And, we are expecting an addition to the Burks side of the family. We are waiting for baby Thomas to make his debut. It could be any day now!! I know Mary Beth and Michael are ready to see that baby....I remember how anxious I was by this point, but now I can't remember my life before him!!
Don't have much else to say... kind of a boring post. Life with a baby is far from boring!!! But, I don't think you guys want to hear how many wet diapers he has had today, or how he really enjoyed Sesame Street this morning. His current obsession is trying to stuff his entire fist in his mouth. It really helps if you use the other hand to help you push! He is getting so close to getting it. Martin doesn't really mind tummy time now that he knows he can roll over to escape! He has been a wiggle worm at night lately. When we put him to bed he is one way, and then when we go in there in the morning to get him, he has turned his body 90 degrees, kind of a fun guessing game. Which way will he be this morning? Well, I better go do some more cleaning. We have company coming this weekend, and the house needs a good scrub. I have been very motivated, so I better keep at it until this motivation leaves me! Have a great week and weekend. Thanks to all of my faithful followers. Oh, and if you haven't read the book The Help, go pick up a copy today. I enjoyed every minute of it.
