Dax is 5 months!

I took Dax in for his 4 month checkup. I can tell he has grown A LOT and was pretty excited to get the statistics. He remains in the 25% in his stats. He is 14 lbs 3 0z and 25 inches long.My little boy has grown up so much I can't even stand it! If you knew me when I had my little Ems, you know I HATED the newborn stage. I guess it was the simple fact that I didn't know what the crap I was doing with the first, but got smarter with the second. I LOVE this stage and hate to see my little man growing up. Dax, you are starting to do so many things lately, it's really bitter sweet. I love that you can recognize me and cry when I walk past you in a room with out picking you up... you get so mad! You are grabbing your feet all the time, and getting better and grasping things. You LOVE to put things in your mouth regardless of what it is. You have this bar of toys that hang over your head on your vibrating chair that you try endlessly to get to your mouth. Your toungue never stops going in and out of your mouth in hopes that one time, just one time you can lick the stupid things! You and mom have a game where she cries, and you make the same little cry sound and after a while you really get sad and start to cry! TOO CUTE! You are CRAZY about food! Whenever you see your bottle, whether you are hungry or not, your hand and legs get going a hundred miles and your mouth looks like a little baby bird just waiting for it to touch your little lips! You eye everybody's food like a hawk hoping they will slip and give you a little taste.
(Britt experienced this at Sundays dinner when she was eating a FAT BOY nut sundae. Dax was kickin and waving his arms with his big ole mouth just waiting for a taste. Well, the boy got Britt to break down and gave him a little lick.. HEAVEN for this boy! We had Payton giggling so hard it make me laugh with him. LOVE HIM!)

Your big sister loves you to pieces and is always worried about where you are. She rubs your head and calls you "good boy buddy" and is always saying "HHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIII DAX!" as loud as she can.
She loves to feed you and spend time talking to you and calling you "good boy".
Daddy rubs your huge bald head at night while he holds you, and you LOVE it!

YOU ARE SUCH A GOOD BOY! You sleep 7-9 hours at night and are a happy little sucker all the time. you melt mommies heart every time you look up at her with those BIG baby blues and flash that cute smile at her. Mommy can't stop kissing those chunker cheeks of yours and goes to work late most mornings because you are awake and ready for a bottle and mommy can't just let you hold up your bottle by yourself, although you are perfectly capable of doing it yourself. She LOVES feeding your whenever she gets a chance just to have that snuggle time with her little boy.
Thank you for joining our family. We love you and are soooooooooo happy you are in our home. We love you buddy!!

I typed this post over a month ago and am just now getting it posted with pictures. Dax is sitting up more, rolling over, and just last week broke his first 2 teeth right in the front on the bottom jaw! I have to admit, I didn't even know about them until my dad called one afternoon and asked me about them. Really though, he never even fussed about them or anything!! I hope that means well for the rest of the teething stage. Eme did awesome teething, I can only hope Dax follows in her footsteps! He is seriously such a joy to have in our home... LOVE LOVE LOVE him!
