It's offical both Mom and Dad saw it with our own eyes. It started Saturday when I went to get him up from his nap. I put him to sleep on his belly and when I went to get him up he was on his back. Sunday morning I put Ketron on our bed thinking that the cushion would make it easier for him to roll over. Sure enough he went from stomach to back. I clapped and told him good job. He looked at me like what the hell is the big deal, I do this all the time. Then that evening Dad had him in the floor and he did it for him. He's such a big boy.

Imagine that Kaycee passed out in her bed. Or maybe she is learning to roll over also.



Trying to catch him in the act. No such luck yet.





Layed back with my mind on my money and my money on my mind. He's big pimpin. To bad no one is around but Mommy to impress. Next time Mommy will give him some gin n juice to sip on.

When I was at home on maternity leave I watched a lot of Bringing Home Baby. This one lady was telling about how someone told her to take a picture every month with an object so you can see how much they change. Since he was alreay a few months old I remembered that I had gotten pictures of him in his carseat. This is his 5 month one. You can look back at one of the very first posts to see him in his carseat the day we brought him home from the hospital. It is pretty scary for his Mom and Dad how much he has changed in such a short amount of time.

He is completly inverted. The spec on his cheek is actually drool that is headed towards me. I guess if we ever have trouble getting him to sleep we will just hang him by his toes like a bat.

Fell asleep Saturday watching the Alambama vs Florida game. Fast forward 20 years he will be in this same position with a beer and pizza in hand.





First attempt at cereal. I made it according to the directions and I'm pretty sure it was way to runny. I would put it in his mouth and it would fall out. He was interested though because he would open his mouth and try to eat it. The next day at Betsy's he ate all of his cereal. She made it thicker and made sure he was good and hungry. She said he gobbled it all up. He didn't even get any on his bib. Then he ate a full bottle. By six months he will probably have another chin to go along with the two he already has.

Liam with Santa at Bass Pro

Liam

Liam




Probably the first and last time the boys will act so sweet and innocent around each other. Its probably a good thing they live so far away. I'm sure these two would be constantly feeding off each other on who could get into more trouble.

Grandpa is a good sleeping buddy. Dad was cat napping himself while Mom was helping me get caught up on chores around the house. They come over on Wednesdays to break up the week while Jon is gone. It is always a welcome relief to have a little help and usually a hot dinner during the week.

Yet another special treat for Mommy. Anymore there is always an article of Ketrons clothing soaking in the sink. I know it is going to bad when he grunts and pushes like a caveman.

Trying to catch him in the act of rolling over. Betsy his baby sitter says that she hasn't actually seen him do it but knows that he can. She says that a few times she has put him down for a nap on his belly and when he is fussing to get up he is on his back. No actual sighting yet but soon I'm sure.

Aunt Angela- Jon's sister

Cousin Shelby- Jon's sisters daughter.

Cousin Liam- 2 months younger than Ketron. My brother Brent and his wife Caroline's first baby. My Mom and Dad got bombarded with there first grandkids all at once, but they don't seem to mind. I don't think those boys are ever going to want for nothing if my Mom has her way.

Great Granddad. The only great Great grandparent he has.
Grandad just turned 90. He got to feed Ketron a bottle before his 4 month Dr. Appointment. Jon took him over before the appointment so they could spend a little time together. Granddad thinks hes pretty sweet. Granddad lights up when he sees him.

Ketron and Liam. Hopefully in the next couple of months Liam starts packing on the ponds. If not he better be able to run fast because Ketron is a haus compared to Liam right now. Grandpa loves to hold his boys.

"Yes Goose I know the finger"

Bob Ross Mullen. He has a whiteman fro just like Bob Ross's. When Jon and I saw him at Walmart we knew he was the one for Ketron.

Enjoys sitting in his Bumbo seat know. He is very strong.

This is how he ends up if Dad is carrying him. It kills Dads back but Ketron seems to like it. If Jon puts him back upright he will be back like this within a minute. He is asleep in this picture.

Mikal Gorbichiev. My brother calls him the little rewski.

Weekend morning ritual.




Does a crunch to get the ball in his mouth. Has ripped it off a few times.

Favorite place for his fingers now. Will get them so far back that he gags himself. Least I never have to worry about his gag reflex.

Ketron and Coolidge. Coolidge is 28 years old.
















Loves to be swaddled at night. Starting to think it is going to be a nightmare breaking him of this.


Have to take baths during the week when Daddy is gone. He would much rather be taking a shower.






Daddy's pumpkin is a skeleton head with flames. Mommy's is a witch stirring her brew. And Ketron's is the headless horseman. Thankfully he took a nap while Mom and Dad franctically carved, so they would be done before he woke up.
