4 Months Old

How is my baby 4 months old? (I have a feeling that is how I am going to start all these posts)
 
We took him to the doctor and everything is perfect.  He weighs 16.5 lbs (80th percentile), is 25 inches long (50th percentile), and his head is in the 95th percentile.  He is built exactly like his sister was.........short, chubby, with a giant baby head.  

Leo is rolling over like a champ and I actually get to see it now.  He babbles and is constantly smiling.  He isn't the best sleeper, but it is getting better.  He falls asleep with me in bed around 9:00 (I swore I would NEVER do that) and then Mike brings him back to his crib.  He has a bottle of formula around 11:00 and then eats again anywhere from 4:30-5:30 am.  Still no schedule thought which makes it tough. 

His eyes light up when he sees his sister and there is nothing better than looking in the crib and seeing his big smile in the morning.  He's still lovable and the hit of daycare. 

He has found his feet, so that is a huge source of entertainment for him.  He is also now going in the jumperoo and is getting the hang of it.  We tried solids at 4 months, but he wasn't quite ready (actually wasn't interested).  We will try again at 5 months.

Enjoy his 4 month pics!

Be Prepared for the Cutest Baby EVER!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a wonderful time in Tulsa for Thanksgiving.  We flew out there on Thanksgiving Day.  The kiddos were fantastic and Southwest Airlines gave away free cocktails.   We had a fantastic dinner cooked by Denise and Joe.

It was like Christmas at the Jurbala household for Gwen.  Denise and her friends went way overboard with toys and books for the kiddos.  Gwen and Leo are so lucky to have them in their lives.  Gwen hasn't stopped talking about the castle and doll house that she got to play with.  I wonder if she'll get them for Christmas...............well of course she will!!  Gwen got to visit Santa at the Bass Pro Shop and even went to visit her grandmother's school.  They took Gwen to see Happy Feet 2 which she loved and she got to drive a toy jeep around.  She was so cute doing it too!

As for Mike and I........we ate too much and drank too much.  Isn't that what the holidays are for?  I got to see the famous Sutures (bar) which may have been the grossest place I have ever been in.  One of Mike's friends wouldn't even use the bathroom..............a guy.  One guy there thought it was his own private rave and there was a stripper pole in the middle of the bar, next to the pool table.  Mike and I got a date night at Sputter, which had AMAZING steaks.  We went and watched the Bears game at Salvastanos.  The beers were only $1 and the pizza was great.  We brought Leo and I proceeded to spill a beer on him..........oops. 

All in all it was such a great time.  Nothing like the holidays with family.  Can't thank Denise/Bill/Tim/Joe for making Leo's first Thanksgiving so special.  We look forward to many more!

Innocence Is SO FUNNY

Gwen seriously says some funny sh*t..........

Tonight Mike went out with his friend Steve for a couple of drinks.  We told Gwen that he is going to the bar.  Well a telemarketer called and Gwen answered (she answers the phone now........too cute!).  She was telling the lady how Leo is going to start going to her school on Monday.  I could then hear the telemarketer say "Is your mommy or daddy home?".  Gwen's response "Daddy's at the bar" and then we hung up.  What the lady must be thinking!!

Gwen has been peeing her pants a lot lately.  I have no idea why.  She recently moved to preschool, but not sure how that could be the problem. Anyway, she peed her pants tonight.  I then told her that Santa doesn't like when kids pee their pants.  Fast forward an hour.  I hear her upstairs going to the bathroom.  I walk in the bathroom and she says "Santa is going to be so happy".  Yep, she peed on the potty and told me that she won't pee her pants again because she wants Santa to be happy because she likes Santa. 

Innocence is SO FUNNY!

Looks Like His Grandfather...........

Leo looks a smidge like his grandfather.........don't you think??

Milestone for Leo

Leo rolled over last Monday (I am really far behind at blogging).  Mike was able to see it which is great.  Unfortunately it wasn't captured on camera and he has yet to do it again. 

Happy Halloween
